I have this one.
I should have been more clear. I'm looking for something to set this popcorn maker and a toaster oven on top of, and to display and store candies and movie snacks. Like a display, or a hutch, or a counter, or something.
Just finished my limited budget basement home theater. Now I need ideas for concession stand/snack bar. I need a counter top that will hold a popcorn machine and toaster oven, and I need storage/display for candy and other movie snacks. What do people generally do for this kind of thing?
Thanks. I'm having a blast, and look forward to many long hours of enjoyment. :)
Kristian's bed is still in there. As soon as it comes out (tomorrow) we'll work on the concession stand. Still looking for a suitable idea for a display, or counter, or something.

Less than three weeks later, my theater is almost complete. All that's left is clean-up, installing wall sconces and carpet, and hanging theater curtains.
The "projector room" is completely built out. HVAC ducting moved and projector is installed in the projector room...

This is Kristian, the kind, very shy, sort of withdrawn gentleman who has been staying in my home, building out my home theater. Tell your wives that he is available to build one in your house, too. I'm sure they'll be all over that. I'm happy to give out his number to anyone who wants to build...
Work continues with Kristian creating some massive bass traps and surround speaker enclosures. Here he is hard at work.
Below is a build for a surround speaker, electricity to control lights and curtains, and additional sound absorbing material.
And here is a massive bass trap, which...
The Marantz has wonderful qualities. Separation and imaging are superb. There is a big and deep sound stage. It handles complex sound elegantly. But compared to Anthem, it's not as forward but has more of a veiled presence, and the midrange is audibly colored. I'm not unhappy with the Marantz...
Work continued yesterday. Bass traps, surround enclosures, electrical being put in, etc. Getting closer!
Here's a structure that functions as both a bass trap and a surround enclosure. Also, dangling from the top is a controller for theater curtains that will be put to use. We'll be building an...
