Integrating video streaming into a dedicated audiophile system


I'd like to add HDTV to my audiophile system (Trinnov Amethyst, dcs Rossini, Roon nucleas plus, D'Agostino S250 biamp to refurbished Apogee Divas with Dax, 2 JL 13.5 inch subs, Walker Audio airbearing TT with Sumiko MM cartridge, Niagra power straps, ACS room treatments in a larger 21x27 feet room with a vaulted ceiling). There is at least 108 inches between speakers, and I do not want to mount on the wall or suspend the video screen from the ceiling. I seriously am  considering an AWOL retractable screen and short throw laser project.

 

Does anyone have experience integrating HDTV streaming into a dedicated audiophile system, so I could listen and watch streamed and blu-ray concerts, ballets, operas, movies, etc? Does anyone have an AWOL video system -what do you think? Any serious suggestions would be deeply appreciated!

@classicalpiano , If you wanna just make do with your existing components, i.e., you don’t want to get a dedicated multichannel/atmos processor, additional speakers, etc, do as follows:

a) Get a Apple TV latest gen box/Nvidia Shield/Google Chromecast/Amazon firestick/etc, i.e. whatever your choice of streaming device is and plug its HDMI output directly into a HDMI input of your AWOL projector.

b) Run the projector’s SPDIF output into a SPDIF input of your hifi stereo dac/preamp for audio...

With your 2 speakers, you will now have hifi stereo through your hifi DAC, amps, etc for whatever you are watching! Hope that helps..
