New house... New HT room... everything I wanted it to be! (1 Viewer)

[Stephen Hopkins]

I thought I'd post some pics of my home theater as it is right now. It's around 90% complete. The major projects left are a hide-away facade to cover up the screen housing and to re-build the subwoofer (to fit back in the dormer behind the seats). The only minor touches lacking are mounting the Dolby/DTS/THX signs above the DVD shelf and adding a few other decorative touches (some movie-themed wall art, movie coffee table book). I'm also planning on putting a mini-fridge and microwave in the attic (behind the full-size door beside the DVD shelf). I have the electric screen working and controlled by the Harmony 520 remote. The screen lowers and raises automatically when the system is powered on or off. I still haven't found my X10 lighting control modules from when we moved but I need to because from the middle seat you can't reach the lamps to turn them on/off. So far I'm extremely happy with everything... the room has shaped up almost exactly how I'd imagined it!

Nice media room, but it looks further along than 9%.

You're still planning on painting the walls, correct?

That should've been 90%... I may paint on down the road but for the immediate future it'll stay beige/white.
