I went to the local Street of Dreams this weekend and I knew one of the houses had a pool (Not many pools in Oregon). When I steped out on the patio next to the pool my !

The pool is under cover and open to the outside on two sides. Built into the back wall is what looked like a 50" plasma. There was also a left/right/center speaker on the wall as well. At the rear of the pool there was a left and right rear speaker and gas heater. I could not locate a sub :frowning:! Here are a couple of shots I took with my crapy digi camera.

I was not able to sit err I mean float in the sweet spot so I can not comment on the speaker/screen placement ect. But oh my the cool factor was :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: out of 5 :star:'s

That does look really sweet. Not sure the long term survivablity of the screen due to moisture, but cool nevertheless.

Wow!

We did a simplified version (sheet over deck) at our pool and called them "Dive In" Movies!

As long as they dropped the plasma behind a protective screen they should be oK, if not they'll be buying a new one

The plasma is behind a protective screen and I would hope that it is sealed and locked in to prevent theft. I would guess a 10k Plasma is not that big of deal to someone that could afford a 2.5 million dollar house

Very nice... however, I can't imagine soaking in a pool to watch the FOTR EE... one might wind up with hypothermia.

I'm not sure which movie that is. Then again, if I was swimming in the pool with a fine lady, I don't think we'd be watching action shows, drama or comedy.

Not to worry... there is a hot tub at the back corner of the pool and a big phaty gas heater haging from the ceiling.

Very nice. I saw in a s&v magazine not sure which one that a architect spent about $225,000 on his ht. Talking about awesome. I thought about buying the mag but I passed it up.
