Let's See Those Home Theater Setups

[dmw16]

I just got a 42" HDTV and will be buying surround sound soon. I would like to see how some of you have your AV rack setup.

 

[Toastedlightly]

I have a 19" computer monitor w/ 550watt 5.1 surround w/ powered sub...

 

[AgaBoogaBoo]

There have been many threads on this in the past

 

[Fritzo]

Oooh...ohhh...I'm proud of mine but I'm at work right now. Marked for later

 

[Whoozyerdaddy]

Oh why not...

Mitsubishi WD-52725 DLP
Lexicon DC-1 Pre-Pro (Soon to be replaced with an Anthem AVM-50 or MAYBE a D2)
Rotel RB-1085 (120 x 5)
M&K S-150 L/R
M&K S-125 C
M&K SS-150 Tri-poles (LS/RS)
M&K MX-350 Subwoofer

Yet people complain when someone digs up an old one .

I pay Mark Twain $30 a month to translate the japanese anime that I frequently watch.

I believe that his voice hovers at around 75hz @ 57dB and it is considered a m0n0block design...but I could clone him and get surround sound...


reanimating him was already costly as hell, so I'll probably have to hold out until the rerise and refall of Enron until I clone the man....

You must not be married. I couldn't imagine trying to explain to my wife why I need an LCD TV AND a LCD projector in the same room

Lol thanks Not married, but may as well be. She doesn't mind too much, since it lets us watch two things at once (with my component 4-2 matrix switch). It's great for having people over and sporting events. Video games on one screen, sports/tv on the other.

I listen to a lot more music than I watch movies. I realize it looks a little silly though.

Yay! I'm home!

Anyway, this is a 40" Samsung on a new rack system from Omnimount. What's cool about it is it lets you "wall mount" the TV without having to rip up your walls...and it's moveable!

The setup
Whole room
Rear speakers (on each side of curtains- they're usually covered)

My subwoofer is on the other side of the wall from the TV. This rack is awesome- I'd recommend it to anyone!
