Please include type of speakers you would put in the auditorium, aud. size, projector type, sound format, THX or not,and so on...  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!

Which is the best/worst projector? Which splicing tape is the best? Whats your favorite xenon bulb brand? Best/worst projector Best 2 piece lamphouse? Amps and Processors What's your favorite drivein lamphouse? That's all I feel like typing. Click "search" at the bottom of the screen and enter "favorite" as the search term for more.  |  IP: Logged Dave Loberg Film Handler Posts: 2 From: Tamuning, Guam, USA Registered: Sep 2000 posted 09-04-2001 10:20 AM                        My ideal projection booth, would be any booth not in Fairbanks, Alaska.  |  IP: Logged Carl King Expert Film Handler Posts: 199 From: Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada Registered: Mar 2000 posted 09-06-2001 08:56 AM                     A good question but the answers would be subjective. My favourite booth is just about any modern projection booth. Why? Because like many of our FilmTech site users I came from the days when the only heat source was the projector. Many a cold winter night was spent sitting between two Century projectors with Peerless lamphouses (while wearing a sweater) trying to stay warm. Many summer nights were spent in swealtering heat. All of this in a tiny concrete/steel walled room high in the building above the balcony. I just love these new modern booths.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-06-2001 06:44 PM                        Hell, my booth is STILL like that! (except there's a platter now, so no more sitting between the lamphouses.)  |  IP: Logged
