Looks good Bembol! If anyone has utilized their space to the max, it's you!

What kinda TV and receiver do you have?

[bembol]

^^ Thanks...!!! I have the 30" Panasonic CT-30WX54 DirectView HDTV and SA-HE100 6.1 dts-ES Receiver

The space is tight...when I upgrade to 7/8.1 I have to idea where to put the Extra Surrounds

[Pirate]

What's that Incredibles box?

Man, my eyes really are getting bad. Where do you see that?

And my only real complaint is that he didn't open the FHM mag prior to taking the pic. Ah well.....

...come to think of it, maybe that's why my eyes are so bad.

It looks like a tin case.

Man, seeing HT's like yours makes me realize that I am an excessive person .

I too like the way you've utilized such constricted space. Now just put up a few movie posters and you'll be golden .

...and seeing that licence plate makes me want to move to Canada that much more (I have relatives in St. Catherines).

BTW.. where did you get that Incredibles Tin and how much was it?

Man...I am definately out of sorts today. Sorry and please resume.

[Taxi]

Here's a version enhanced for Iggy.

If you look carefully, you can see the "The Incredibles" tin.

[Iguana Man]

Bembol, watch out for this crowd. They are f-ing brutal man....brutal.



On track (and to save further embarassment), is that a video switcher on the bottom rack below the TV and if so, what kind?

[wyterfire] I got the Tin at Future Shop Exclusive Bonusi with The Incredibles...$25.99 CAN...about the Posters...I'm working on it...!!!

i would love to see a doorway view of this room just to see more of how you used the space, everything looks good, the only is, it seems like your fronts are a little high, how high is your bed?

This is the best shot I can get...!!! I don't know, the Fronts look right to me?

[sub780lime]

well with where your equipment is and the computer monitor you really cant go lower, but its always good to try and level your fronts and rears, because the sound is traveling the same distance so your hearing how the DVD was meant to be listened, it may not be anything you would ever really notice, but just knowing it, i try and keep mine pretty level

[Iguana Man]

Bembol ! Don't think I can't see what's on that monitor young man! Get rid of that filth or you'll go blind!

Actually, I'm in the camp of higher surrounds and ear level fronts/center myself. I know this can't always be accomplished given different rooms and all, but that's how I would try and do it.

[sub780lime]

i actually had a setup like that a while back and it worked ok, mine werent were i would have like them if i really had the money to put them where i wanted, they were too high, but it worked, i definately like level everything but center

Thanks...I was deciding between this or Charlize Theron bedroom scene

[Pirate]

I may be missing it, but what speakers are you using?

[ganthc]

Bembol, nice TV! I live in the basement as well, but it's quite a bit bigger than that one. I need to take some pictures and post them up here.

I like the dual TV setup. How come your brother gets the 360?

[bembol]

**I'm running my Mac Book @ 1920x1080 on it...!!!**

I have polk audio's CSi3, RT15's & 25 with PSW120

I'm rarely use it after finishing Call of Duty 2...besides he paid half for it...!!!

The basement is pretty tight...I'm trying to convince Mommy to give me the Family Room...which she/we rarely uses...!!!

[bembol]

Hopefully, this WILL be my Set Up for a while...no my exchanges or selling! :flush:

[bembol]

Guess not... Move things around...again!

[bembol]

My cousin re-painted my room and even suggested for me to move things around over the weekend...

[sub780lime]

Hey Bembol. Like the red. Looks good. Sort of what we did in our media niche. It works pretty well.

[ganthc]

Hmm...that looks like a ps3 on your bed there. I thought you sold yours a while back?

[bembol]

I was supposed to delete that! I did but...


Rescue Me, WEEDS got me back into it. Also, the fact that I got a BNIB 60GB for only $500 CAN...I actually made $100 selling my first PS3 back then. I didn't bother posting my support back to BD.

Thanks. I was told that Red is pretty hard to work with but my cousin did an amazing job, I think she did 2 coats of the Primer (also RL, to match) and 2 coats the Paint.
