Both projectors and platter systems are wired in and they will be test run on Monday. The two 15kw lamps(Ushio)arrived today and will be installed on Monday for tests. The new MDI silver screen was hung today(or was that placed Steve G.?) on the frame. It looks great....invisible seams! Rough screen alignment with a laser was begun and final alignment will be done with target film. All speaker cabling was twisted today for install on Monday. Its a 190 foot pull! 4 pair of #10 twisted THHN per channel, including the surrounds. Will post more photos over the weekend as time permits.
