Classic Beer Poster

I am building a house and want some advice on a home theater.?
I have all the equipment picked out and want to know what yall think;
Sony 3LCD HD Home Theater Projector VPLAW15
Draper 65”X116”,133” Diagonal (HD Screen)
Sony STR-DG910 7.1 Reciever (one of the only reciever with 3 HDMI Inputs)
Philips HTS3555 5.1 Ch Audio System
HDMI Super Booster Cable 50’ (going from Reciever to Projector)
3 HDMI Cable 4' (from Xbox360 to Reciever, from Directv to Reciever, and from DVD to Reciever)
LG – Super Blu High Definition Multiplayer model BH200 (Blu-Ray/HD DVD Combo)
Milan Rocker Theater Seat, 3 Rows of 4
Paramount Home Theater Seating Row of 2
Haier HBF05EABB Brew Master Beer Dispenser
I haven't decided on a popcorn machine. I already have a few classic arcade games. My wife and I went through and bought 18 movie posters. Does anybody have any comments or suggestions on the setup? Thanks.
Your project appears to be fairly good size. As a result the following information and comments are provided in this context.
First, I do not recommend the LG Super Blu BH200 multi-format disc player. Though it performs well when it comes to video quality it has serious shortcomings when it comes to the latest high-performance surround sound audio formats; not to mention that it is not fully “BD Live (Profile 2.0)” or “ROM2 Format” compliant. “ROM2 Format” compliant BD players, such as Panasonic’s highly anticipated DMP-BD50 will be released this spring at a price less than LG’s Super Blu BH200 with performance that should match or exceed the Super Blu BH200. If you also want HD DVD capability then I recommend adding a Toshiba HD DVD player such as their HD-A30 model.
The following quotes are taken from Thomas J. Norton’s review of the LG Super Blu BH200 disc player:
http://guide.printthis.clickability.com/pt/cpt?action=cpt&urlID=25320818&url=http://ultimateavmag.com/hddiscplayers/1207lg200/index.html
“In any case, the important point here is that in our tests the
LG Super Blu player would not output Dolby TrueHD in
multichannel form from any output, at any resolution.”
“The inability to give the user the best audio encoded on many
high-definition discs is a serious shortcoming.”
“I hardly need point out—but I will—that you can buy excellent,
separate players for both HD DVD and Blu-ray for less than the
price of this LG. And those players will, in some respects, do
more.”

The Sony VPL-AW15, as good as it is for a low cost 1280×720 projector, is not a good choice when it comes to projecting a video image larger than 84 inches or so. For a slightly higher cost you will get MUCH better (1080p/24) performance, across the board, from the Epson projectors listed below.
Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 1080 UB Projector (V11H262120)

For a budget home theater installation I highly recommended the following projection screens along with the maximum sizes:
Elite Screens Elite ezFrame Screens
1.78:1 (16:9) format: 100 or 106 inches (diag.)
http://www.elitescreens.com/product_ezframe.htm
(Less tolerant of any ambient room light than a higher gain screen.)

Carada Criterion Series Projection Screens
1.78:1 format: 100, 106, or 110 inches

The Philips HTIB system you’ve listed will be far from adequate for a moderate-to-large room. If you want to avoid heartache I recommend that you consider purchasing an alternative, preferably equipment from the list below. The equipment is some of the least expensive, reasonably full-featured, A/V electronics equipment that will provide a sufficient level of performance for a project the size of your home theater.

For a larger home theater project, as yours appears to be, there is a better option, however it’s a bit more costly: purchase a receiver such as the Onkyo TX-SR705 7.1-Channel receiver, for use as a preamplifier/processor (and back-up amplifier if needed,) and add separate multi-channel power amplifiers, such as models from Outlaw Audio, Anthem, Adcom, Simaudio, etc. Also keep in mind there are times when it is advantageous to divide the amplification duties between separate amplifiers in order to simplify the cabling requirements.
One other note: while you’re in the remodel process you should strongly consider installing a dedicated electrical branch-circuit for your home theater, including its own dedicated distribution panel. You may also want to inquire about installing an isolated ground electrical system.

Key to obtaining visceral impact in a home theater sound system requires purchasing a high-performance subwoofer that will be free from strain when faced with the task of reproducing the LFE content found in many of today’s high-powered, high-definition movies. I’ve listed a moderately broad selection of some of the lowest-cost loudspeaker systems that are capable of providing a convincing and enjoyable home theater (and music) audio experience.

Clearly the total cost of the equipment I am recommending will exceed the total cost of the equipment that you’ve listed, however the benefits will greatly outweigh the relatively small cost savings you might achieve. If need be pick and choose individual equipment recommendations to fit your budget and upgrade as necessary. Keep in mind, once you’ve purchased the A/V equipment on your list, and if you find that the equipment is inadequate for the job as I suspect it will be, then you will have unnecessarily increased the overall cost of your home theater system when the time comes to purchase the ‘proper’ equipment. It is my intent to help you avoid any unnecessary expenditures while at the same time assembling a home theater that should provide enjoyment for many years.

Why Pint Glasses Are Great Collector's Items For Music Lovers
Music fans represent one of the world's most dedicated and profitable collector-sub cultures in the world. Dedicated to the world of music, or a certain style or band there is no end to the merchandise that a collector will pick up at any given time. Auction sites, trade shows, conventions and online portals are some of the sources collectors use to find merchandise from their favorite band.
The collection hysteria started around icons such as the Beatles, Rolling Stones and Elvis who are generating triple digit million-dollar sales every year in merchandising. The majority of the sales of music-related merchandising stems from collectors.
The Merchandising industry is seeing a positive growth pattern and the music industry is pay attention. With the rapid decline of CD- and Record-sales, the digital music industry taking of, and portable players becoming main-stream, the music industry has been seeking new avenues for revenue. Touring and Merchandise are now the top dollar generators for musicians.
Rock Icons Kiss generated over 36 million dollars in merchandise sales last year and have over 3,500 licenses available.
A standard line up of music related merchandise often revolves around T-Shirts, Poster and Belt Buckles. The Pint Glass is also a classic and fool-proof crowd pleaser; the music merchandise collector is often also a dedicated beer drinker. Ideally, the collector also collects Pint glasses killing two birds with one stone.
A little known secret about die-hard collectors of music merchandise is that they often purchase merchandise in sets of two; one set that will remain unopened and stored in a safe location where it will not be exposed to contamination or hazardous surroundings - and one set for immediate use and appreciation.
Most collectors of music merchandise will tell you that when they enjoy a cold beer, it is often in the Pint Glass carrying the imprint or logo of their favorite band.
New album releases, global tours, new legs of tours and other band related news and events have therefore become items around which Pint Glass productions are designed. Many bands carry as many as 5-6 different styles of Pint Glasses.
New bands that are looking to get established in the merchandise side of the music business and adding a line of Pint Glasses to their line-up will benefit from seeking discount-friendly deals with traditional promotional product suppliers, many which do business online.
The promotional product industry traditionally oversees the supply of personalized and customizable give aways in traditional business sectors and it has not been until recently that bands trying to break through are realizing the potential in consulting merchandise experts for promotional programs and the value they can add to their marketing attack.
