Need help with paint color

[warlocks1]

I need to repaint my cave. I have hunter green carpet and I don't like the green paint on the walls. The lighter walls are white with a touch of green. I know you are supposed to have dark walls for a HT, but I want to lighten it up a litttle to make it warmer. I was thinking of a grey color with a tint of blue. Any sugestions?

BTW, please don't tell me my cables are a mess or I need to move the 1.2tl's further from the side wall. I am still looking for a fixed frame screen which will allow me to move the speaker farther from the wall. I just got done cutting wholes in the walls running a HDMI cable and power. Everything will be cleaned up after painting.

Thanks for any suggestions. Jeff

You are in the same boat I was in.

I had green carpet and green walls. I broke it finally with a blue/grey color in some light its blue in some its light light grey. Here is a link.

Black screen wall, do the remaining colors of your choice. Lighter colors will ruin your projected image due to light getting back to the PJ. This is my most home theaters have darker color to begin with. Do black screen wall with shade of blue/burgundy, light earth color browns. Then finally get that cable management under control.
