My wife and are moving into a new rental condo for at least 3-5 years and she has given me the green light to turn either one of the two spare bedrooms into a small dedicated theater with screen and projector. Thats the good news. The bad news is that neither of the two rooms are ideal. Is...

Hi all, I'll try to keep this short: My wife and I both love watching movies, but with three kids under 5, we're short on ability to go out and not long on cash. So we're looking to make a long-term investment so that we can enjoy the big screen experience at home instead of going out (plus...

Hi guys, I'll try and keep this concise because I'm sure you're all very busy people. I'm looking for something to listen to music from my computer with, and that's about it. I have little need for the video portion of a/v. I'm an avid fan of music, and would really like to hear what my...

My wife wants a blu ray player for christmas. I'd like to get her one that will play movies from netflix as well. It will be connected to a 42" tv via HDMI. I doubt we'd ever even connect it to an external set of speakers. The most important thing I am looking for is the user experience. The...

New pics from March 2013 :)

Thinking of replacing the TV in the bedroom. Any recommendations out there and size wise I am thinking 32" after looking at them briefly in the store but will depend on price. I would rather keep it closer to $300 but we will see. Any suggestions on from what people have bought recently? I just...

I thought I might share some newer results and see what others think. The room is 45'+ wide and about 17' long at the longest length. There are 4 12" crystal acoustics subwoofers powered by 4 MA500 Marantz mono amps. My soundcard is a soundblaster MP3+. There is an outlaw 950 and currently just...

Hi, I am looking for a 5.1 system for my bedroom. The front and surround speakers need to be small enough that I can hang them from the ceilings/walls. I would like some advice on a decent system for a modest budget. My current speakers in that room are a Cambridge SoundWorks New Ensemble III...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and I thought I'd put up a thread while I'm still working on my theater room. It's a dedicated theater/video game room in one of the spare bedrooms in our house. The room is 11'6" wide, 12'10" long at the longest, and has an 8' ceiling. Obviously, the room...

I have a dedicated home theater room and three additional surround sound systems in the living room, the master bedroom, and our second master bedroom. Each system is set up differently and with different equipment. We are just now upgrading to Bluray in all of the systems I will list the...

I have a dedicated home theater room and three additional surround sound systems in the living room, the master bedroom, and our second master bedroom. Each system is set up differently and with different equipment. The home theater is also an entertainment room with family and friends watching...

after much arguing with the wife, I agreed to purchase bedroom furniture if we could get another tv to use in the bedroom, I am looking for 42" plasma/lcd...viewing distance will be about 15 feet so I wouldn't have any problem going 720p if the price is that much better... the last tv I bought...

All, My Gizmo just arrived. Wow - what a cool little package it is. I love the look and feel. It is just such a sharp looking piece. And S M A L L - small. I had read 4.5" wide but was still shocked at its cool form factor. It replaces a kenwood 'executive' system amp. The source is an...

I am looking for a Home Theater System for my bedroom. I just got the 46" Panasonic Viera display and I want a theater system with a blu-ray and would really like to get wireless rear speakers, bedroom is large and don't want to run such long wires for the rear speakers. Not really looking to...

Well, since some of you asked (or demanded), I decided to acquiesce, wave the white flag, and take some pictures :surrender:. Again, it's nothing too spectacular, but in the tiny <1,000 cubic foot room, this setup can rock pretty well. Here's the list of gear as shown in this first post...

I'm interested in an inexpensive way to upgrade the sound in my master bedroom HT. I have an existing Bose Acoustimass 5 2.1 that has been in use for years. They work fine and are wall mounted. We're upgrading to a HD flat TV and there are space constraints, due to the wife's interior design...
