    I've had this idea before, but never pursued it. I'm interested in some kind of sound-activated, small room, fairly inexpensive (<$100) multi-light laser-like light show device.

    Just something not uber-cheesy that might enhance listening to music/zoning out.

    Anyone seen/have something like this? Even if you come across something out-of-budget, I'd still like to know what is available.

    Thanks!

    This site was recommended to me by a DJ. It gives you an idea of the prices for professional equipment.

    Thanks, Allen. That gives me a good baseline in terms of what is available, and at what prices. I did some looking on Amazon last night, and found a variety of stuff ranging from cheap and cheesy, to way beyond my needs. While there doesn't seem to be an all-in-one solution for under $100, there are some pieces that could come together for $300-400.

    I won't be doing any of it right away, but the possibility seems better than last time I thought about it. Also, I think LED lighting has helped to make some of the cool effects safer and cheaper for home.

    Thanks, Macky. Currently, I would not have use for such an invite. I'm primarily thinking of Pink Floyd (or maybe some Pandora-offered similarities), but my tastes could expand eventually.

    If you choose sort by price (descending) you can see the most expensive laser is lot more than $400.

    Oh, I thought you meant to zone out, not fall asleep completely.

    I'm not planning on opening a disco (or writing my name on the moon*), just flashing some lights in a media room.... I mean the above to read, "3 or 4 pieces at about $100 each.

    Sadly, my musical tastes are about as hip as the rest of me.



    *Tick reference, anyone?

    I only meant to insult Pink Floyd, not your entire preference system.

    You only back off now realizing I may soon be armed with lasers and stuff.
