Hey all - Just sharing my construction thread so far and curious on opinions on how I'm doing.
LED's I installed under the sectional with remote control to change colors and brightness.
Basement was a complete open slate when I started. I did all construction with 2 friends and my father in law except for drywall taping and carpet install.
Theatre - 14x16x7.5
Receiver - Marantz SR5007
Mains - Aperion Grand monitors
Surrounds - Monoprice 5 1/4's (given the sound stage distance - these cheap speakers matched the higher dollar speakers as they are barely driven at all). Great little speakers on the cheap. Only fault they have, the back of them are not enclosed.
Sub - Currently 1 JBLPSWD115 - I have two SVS PB1000's on order.
Sony BD player
Belkin power conditioner
Epson 3020 3D projector
Visual Apex 120" 1.1 16x9 screen
The open area is still unknown as to what Im going to put down there. The drumset now has a Mackie studio monitor system behind it - the rest is wide open.
The ceiling of the theatre is only fire taped for now as Im currently building the fiber optic panels for a starfield ceiling. Time....absorbing....project....
HTPC is a I3 Sandy Bridge - Samsung 830 SSD - 8GB - Hauppage TV Tuner - Win media center connected to NAS for movies/internet/streaming. FUGLY ass case which needs to be replaced. Deciding on building a new machine for gaming on the screen which will result in all new hardware since my current mobo only has one PCI-E slot for the TV tuner. Yeah for failed future planning.
