We bought our first house in October, this room was intended to be a dining room by the guys who flipped the house. Even before we bought the place we had a vision of converting it to a media room / theater. The room was not optimal but I had a vision! We are so happy with it all we need now is a new couch, window treatments and some acoustic panels.


Equipment:

LG 55LH90

Pioneer Elite VSX-23TXH

Oppo BD-83 (used for DVD, Blu-Ray and CD listening)

Xbox 360

PS3 (fat)

Panamax 5300-EX

Mains: 2x Def Tech STS Towers

Center: Def Tech Mythos 9

Surrounds: Def Tech Gems

Sub: Epik Empire

All Audio interconnects and speaker cables are Transparent Audio Music Link Wave

Salamander Designs Synergy AV console w/LCD Mount and extended rear panel w/active cooling.


Ill post some before and after pics this week. Ill put together the details as I post the pics too.

So you can see from these that this room was going to be noisy. . . bare walls. . . wood floors. That built in hutch was nice but had to go.

we upgraded to 200amp service, added a dedicated 20amp circuit for the AV equipment, added recessed lighting and ran the surrounds and sub cable in wall.

Looks really good man. I to am a Def Tech Man. I am in the hunt for a new credenza. I like yours, how tall is it?

 

[BostonHxC]

As configured it is 21" high. You can configure it so it has less or more shelves and it can go as low as 12" and as high as 41"

lookin good, for some reason I'm scared for your one tower speaker, looks like its in a place that it could get hit quite a few times.

Barns - Believe me I have been afraid of that too! Those STS towers are pretty heavy though. . . It has not been a problem as of yet.

you ran the sub power cable in the wall, or the rca cable? power cable in wall is a no-no.

No that power outlet was already there. It is an outside wall, I ran the RCA cable in wall for the sub.
