I've got just about 2 more months of agonizing planning, then I'm able to put all this together. General speaker wiring question: is there a distinct advantage to bi-wiring the 340's?Īny specific or general comments are appreciated.

Do they make any stands like this out there, that actually sit behind the tv and the height is adjustable? But I've also seen some DIY stands that were made to sit directly behind the TV, same height as the TV and intended to hold the center speaker on top.this seems like a decent option. I've seen the thread regarding using a TV stand from the wall above the tv, which is a viable option. Now how do you go about making it look like the theater room of your dreams Its time to add in the fun accessories. My issue is that it won't allow for a center speaker below the screen (unless I do a little work with the saw, and that isn't going to happen). At Lowe’s, you can find an array of attractive media storage cabinet designs in a variety of colors and finishes to fit your storage needs. These cabinets are also ideal for housing stereo systems and other audiovisual equipment. Do you see any problems with this setup.would you suggest something else? Would an HTM 200 work on it's side? Or would that present an issue? Is placing the 170 against the back wall on the floor, angling it upward an option?įor speaker runs this length, what gauge wire should I use? Is there a major performance/cost difference between 12 and 14 gauge? And what is the best way to 'finish' each run at the wall, to make it clean and unnoticeable?Īs far as speaker set up in general, what are your comments? My wife wants a flat panel entertainment cabinet from pottery barn, which will take a little work to improve ventilation, but should be be a problem. Place a media cabinet anywhere you’d like to organize, access or display CDs, DVDs, books and decorative pieces. so what I propose to do is to attached it to the front side of the soffit, toward the middle of the room as shown (I would turn the speaker upside down and angle it down firing just above the listening position). Due to the fact that this soffit will drop about 5" or so, I will not be able to place the 170 Rear above the door as initially planned. To cover up piping at the ceiling and to use the angle this backwall creates, a soffit will be built about 2 feet from the side walls, circling the entire area.

Questions I have regarding this setup will be directed in another area of the forum.Īs you see my room below it is a rectangle, except for a portion of the back wall, which is angled. I'll be getting an LCD flat panel and a Ascends 7.1 (340's across front, and 170's side and rear). I'll be adding a HD Cable box, and more importantly a new DIY Media Center Computer (Intel Core 2 Duo overclocked) with the xbox 360 HD DVD drive attached. I currently have the NAD T773 receiver and Xbox 360. I'd like to give you a quick run down of what I'll be including and then some specific questions that have arose over some time. I've attached a drawing (not to scale) of my home media room that should be about 15' x 22', and will begin constructions around April 1.
