Not sure if I have a "true home theater" but have dedicated room with projector, screen, seating (couches) and surround. No lighting or other fanciness. Also, have no blacked out the walls around the screen with felt but considering it. Will probably be adding mini fridge and popcorn machine/microwave in near future. I have tower speakers for the fronts bc don't like in wall.

IIRC, electronics ran approx.

$2700 projector (Epson - forget model), screen and mount (Visual Apex Website package)
$1500ish receiver - Anthem
$2000ish speakers and wire - Paradigm (had sub)
$900ish Oppo BR
$100 Apple TV
about $300 odds and ends, wall plates, ceiling power for projector, fish tape, etc.
ETA - forgot power supply - don't remember cost.

Did the work myself, and it's awesome. Got quoted about $15k for similar setup professionally installed.

A friend of mine has one. It's pretty neat but I'd never waste a room on that in a house.
