hey guys Boston I'm standing here in my home theater setup so a few months ago you might remember we did a video going all over how we built this including the massive 120 inch LG projector behind me with a 120 inch screen we're pushing our Provine to its absolute limit now it definitely will work however as with any projector the larger the display area that you're projecting on the less light you have to spread across it so that on top of the fact that this is going to be only 1080 means that it's time for an upgrade that's where this comes in the LG Sena beam laser 4k and of course huge shout it to LG for sponsoring our set up yet again so the cool things about this is that not only is it going to give us a full 4k resolution but also can go all the way up to a 150 inch screen more than enough power to handle our 120 inch display one of the main criticisms you guys had of our last set up had to do with audio so right now we're using the sj9 sound bar go get me wrong it actually does sound pretty good especially considering how small it is but for a full home theater setup we need to up the game just a little bit what's cool about this guy is that it's in a very unusual shape it's definitely not going to come cheap but what you're getting here is something that's going to be pretty portable if you want to actually move it around so I'm actually curious I was able to take a look at this guy and see yes oh there you go so if you want to walk around with it not only does it have the built-in handle but it also has a power cable built-in I think right oh yeah look at that so the power cable just whines out so you don't even need to worry about anything if you want to take this on like I don't know what do you do you go outside to a pool party or something so what's interesting about this guy is that it actually is going to be in a really unique shape and that's because they actually completely reorient it compared to most standard laser projectors I say standard is that laser projectors are all over the place but basically what they've done is they flip the entire thing up on its side so what you're actually doing is you're going to be shooting everything off of this mirror so everything can be much more compact and you're also going to be getting something that is going to be handheld somewhat I'm a little afraid that it's going to be too tall for this setup we may actually have to move everything back okay so it turns out that this projector not exactly short-throw like the other one or not as we expect it so it won't fill the screen like we thought the Rings do small their weights useful by bigger house that's really the solution so it is day two and we have a little bit of a better plan than yesterday so the pose doing the entire set up at my house instead we're going to be doing it here at the office where you know we have a room that's larger than seven feet wide so unlike with a ultra short throw projector the sin of being actually needs some space to be able to give you the full size so technically we could have it a couple feet away within the screen size would be like this big do you actually get a full hundred hundred and twenty or even 150 inches you need to have this thing several feet away so with that I think it's time to repurpose our old set which you actually if you guys remember is where we used to shoot all of our videos and get ourselves a proper office home theater setup that's you know actually functional unlike what we did yesterday so we just got the projector screen up we lowered the screen itself and I think the placement looks pretty good right now we have this console table that we've had from our old set up we're gonna use it to hold all of our components okay so the AC is not currently working it's over 90 degrees in the office and yet work continues so what are we doing as far as audio goes okay so basically we have a 5.1 setup right now so we have this Yamaha receiver it'll take all of our speakers our subwoofer we got basically all clips just to kind of match everything and we also have this thing that will hook up to our PC so it is a desktop DAC and headphone amp really what's interesting about this is that it comes with a blu-ray player which is really weird I've never seen something like this before the real answer here is that you picked a bunch of stuff that you want for your own setup you're gonna steal as soon as this video is over right one of the nice things about the center beam is that we do have multiple options of setting it up so what I think I'm going to do is put it behind me here on this table and just shoot across the couch but if you want to get a little more of a compact set up instead of using it with the like this you actually just swivel the whole thing out of the way and using the included stand just adjust it and kind of angle it just about the way you want to look at it on the display one of the things I'm excited for is this Corsair lap board so we actually have a full wireless mechanical keyboard with this weird trackball mouse this is actually really cool though so the whole thing is gonna be padded on the bottom so it's really meant more for actual gaming than Inc have home theater use but the nice thing is you do still have a full-size keyboard so you can pretty much do whatever you want the only thing I'm not a huge fan of is the trackball Mouse just cuz it's weird but I think especially considering that I want to have to be moving all around here it's a little bit easier to use so this is just the first version of this setup so right now we're going to be using the latest Intel Skull Canyon nook to power everything now with Radeon graphics inside we're going to have more than that power to of course handle any kind of 4k projection that we want but importantly it also is going to be capable of some gaming this is not exactly going to be a dedicated gaming setup with the full projector but it is possible and this PC will run everything we need and a nice small package it is finally time to test the setup so the projector is fully up and running you can see it actually looks pretty decent even though it is very bright in the room right now so only thing left to do is to press play and hope that everything works so great test is going to be watching one of our very first 4k HDR videos right off of youtube and then so good so I've watched this video I don't know how many times but I've actually never watched it at full 4k HDR and a projector oh man no no yep this is so great I'm so happy with this right now dude it looks so good especially considering its 4k so we've got a pretty large screen here it'll go up to 150 inches but right now we've got it around 120 inches with this display but I mean it's so sharp even when you get right up close to it and something that's really surprising to me is how bright it is so I mean it is not dark in here at all we've got the windows we've got the top light and yet you can still see it as super super bright this is great so of course if you guys might check out any of the stuff the link will be in the description but if you excuse me I'm gonna go watch some videos on a super cool new setup I'm just gonna crank the volume now
