Only go down to like 40Hz, pretty sad.

They are PA speakers, speakers meant for home theater will blow them away.
I would suggest just getting a receiver and regular home theater speakers. None of that gear is high-end enough to care about power/pre amps.

What is the minimum distance it can be mounted, and will it be fully dark like a normal theater? After calibration, you really don't want to mount it past 22ft (check ProjectorCentral).
Also, build your own screen out of wood and use this, or if you want acoustically transparent for the center, get this
Called Marshall's (and everywhere else) but all they carry is max 54" blackout clothe. I found what I was looking for on Amazon though!

+1 on the Sidebar for distance and throw calculations.
You can build your own screen, which is usually recommended because every room is different. It's also significantly cheaper. I strongly recommend Epson projectors mostly because of features, bulb life, and overall quality.
I bought the following components to build my screen (you can get smaller sizes, mine just happens to be ridiculously huge): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007KA7BAA/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1[2] https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0052YQE7C/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1[3] https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JF7IXXU/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1[4]

I agree - I'd go with this first.
But if you really want to DIY, it can be done. You'll want the screen sewn around a heavy wooden dowel on the bottom, which will keep the screen hanging straight without ripples/etc. You could roll it up around a cardboard tube or something to store it. I'd use 2-4 large storage hooks like these to hang the screen from, and to hold it when it's rolled up.
Alternatively, you could do a solid screen mounted on a frame of pine 1x2s. Very easy to make, and quite cheap. I've done this in the past with a 130" screen salvaged from some old tripod screens.
Either way, I'd use this material unless you can figure out a cheaper DIY solution, and I recommend doing a black felt tape or matte black paint border to add a professional look (and it makes it a lot easier to square up the projector and avoid bleedover).
Pinning down blackout cloth over the window seems like the simplest solution for the light problem. (or heavy curtains)
