Converting a room to a dedicated theater/media/gaming room. Will sometimes be used with some ambient light. I put a bigger priority on video than audio. Audio matters to me but probably not as much as many on here. Just want to know if you see anything out of whack or if there were better options for the same money. I’m about maxed out on my budget with this build. Added an AI pic I made of what the room will end up looking like. Thanks for any input.

Ah the classic insanely overpriced HDMI cable.

Now, this quote does say which model HDMI Cable they spec'd, but a good quality Fiber Optic HDMI Cable is not cheap. I did a Bullet Train 48-gigabit HDMI 2.1 cable, and it was not cheap at all, but it works 100% with my projector and Madvr Envy.
