We watched a few movies on the BG808s with the new Draper screen and wow does a good screen make a huge difference!

Now to raise the 808 up to the vaulted ceiling in the master bedroom, I think I'll rent an HVAC lift for that task.

No. Those are actually the older models which had a metal grill there.
