I have been struggling with this decision for about a year. I would like to build a basic Home Theater in our family room which is our main living area. My goal is to have a flat screen, left/right and center speaker mounted on the wall and 2 rear speakers in the cieling. We would like to eliminate the entertainment center completely. I know this is not the ideal set up but this is our main living area.
So hear is my dilemma… Should I build all my A/V gear into a cabinet which will extend into my garage? Or can I put all the A/V stuff in the basement and run it via remote? I have given this a lot of thought and I am leaning towards building a rack into the garage. I have kids and it seams like they and my wife are always changing the DVD/tape etc… I can’t imagine going downstairs every time. I know they make a muti DVD player but we also rent a lot of movies.
Unfortunately building this rack will be difficult as I have heat runs, wires and to top it all off it is a bearing wall.
So I am asking for your suggestions!
Looking forward to your responses.
