Well, the chips are sealed in the bags...I think and the candy is still as fresh as candy can be. At some point, I'll either toss them out or empty out them out and keep the bags.

As for dusting, I do have to move stuff around, which is a pain. I designate one major cleaning day a month and that's when I tackle that room.

The camera is good enough that I'm able to take pics in a dark room with no flash. None of those were taken with a flash.

So buh-bye dust orbs.

I’ve updated the pics. You should now be able to see the center channel along with the patented “Iggy” shelf.

I don't get it. I can see it fine on my laptop and it's a bit darker on my work screen.

And...the check's in the mail.

I meant the whole setup. The Theatre room, the library, and the starwars stuff. Next step is leather couch and leather recliner.

I think it's a shame when someone posts pics of their Theater and keep the primary package (center channel) hidden in darkness. I think that center channel is like a Movie Star doing a nude scene but doesn't really want to so she hides herself.

Unfortunately, the scene is too dark and I dont get to see her package.

Edited: Honestly PH, I wanted to see a shot of your shelf.

your rear speakers are too high... I am pretty sure that effective rear speakers should be placed at ear level? But, I wouldn't be complaining if that was my setup. The only place I can put my TV is in a corner, so my surround sound is screwed from the get go.

I'm pretty sure you may be wrong. Especially considering each room is different AND what Dolby says: Our recommended height for the surrounds is above ear level, as soundtracks are likely to be optimized for that location.



(no offense Davideo)

Yeah, I think his surrounds are placed just fine.

Peace...

I actually spoke with an Axiom expert (and several Filers) about the placement and they really do sound good where they are. I'd like them to be a bit farther back, but what can you do? Keep in mind that those speakers are quadpolar meaning they fire in four directions. That makes them a bit different to place than most surrounds.
