So the Music 5 or 3 isn't big or badass enough? Need more bass, more presence, and spread? Or just something that works well with a larger TV or even a projector based system? The tech blurb: https://www.dynaudio.com/home-audio/music/music-7 " Like the Music 5, it’s mains-powered with an optical input – but it's also packing two 1in soft-dome tweeters, two 3in midrange drivers and twin 5in woofers. It even has an HDMI connection with Audio Return Channel so you can use it as a soundbar under your TV." Now Dynaudio has the largest one, their 7 is a bit of a beast. It's mains powered, and has a fairly large profile and might not fit under smaller TVs with smaller legs. It can be wall mounted, or it can sit under your TV (I couldn't fit it under my 58", but it did well in my dedicated HT room under my 75"). If you do mount it, bear in mind this baby weighs more than 7kg, so make sure your shelves are up to the task...

I think there are enough people who are beginning to own screens, so it's useful to have a chat on the options. Projectors (PJ) have been divided into a few camps - traditional ones which require a longer throw, so you usually site it at the back - ultra short throw ones which sit on a console at the front The light source can be a bulb, LED or lasers The video chip can be LCD, DLP, each with it's own pros and cons. As for the screens, you won't want to be using the old style traditional ones with a UST PJ. Those cheap and cheerful ones have a gain factor to help you retrieve or enhance the light reflection for the longer throw projectors, but if you are using the newer UST types, you actually don't want that.  You will need a ALR Light rejection type such as this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33042530895.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.6d134630RcoxAx&algo_pvid=72d52e67-ef06-44a8-bca1-9eca1be3b113&algo_expid=72d52e67-ef06-44a8-bca1-9eca1be3b11...
