Re: home theater on a beer budget - mrbigstuff - 12-18-2011 supposedly you can buy ( I've read this but not done it) black-out cloth meant for room darkening that is white on one side. sounds like a good option but not as cheap as a white sheet. I'm going to try it one day. my local sew shop has some in stock; they sell it by the yard. Re: home theater on a beer budget - sunfalcon - 12-18-2011 I purchased the "black out cloth" off ebay like 5 years ago and stretched it around my own wood frame. It was cheaper than a pull-down and is still going strong. I've got a 90" diagonal screen with the Optoma HD20 projector - love it! Re: home theater on a beer budget - Dennis S - 12-18-2011 If you need sound insulation, look up Owens Corning 703. It's what they sometimes use in recording studios. You'll probably need to get a contractor order it for you if you can't find it at a store. Re: home theater on a beer budget - deckeda - 12-18-2011 Surely there are a couple cheap couches on craigslist. Easier for old men to get out of after (or before) a few beers. Store on-end or rig a couple pulleys and hoist 'em up to the ceiling when not in use.

A little lighter in color and softer, http://www.atsacoustics.com/item--ATS-Acoustics-Rigid-Fiberglass-Board--AB2.html (They also sell 703.)
