Moved late last year and finally got things more or less together. Still swapping stuff around a bit. I have a few systems, including main, master bedroom and a couple of spare bedrooms. Here is the main system:

This is one of the spare bedroom systems

This is the Master Bedroom System where I have a 92 inch Da-Lite screen that rolls into the ceiling (had the 55 inch LED in the prior picture in the master bedroom of the old place but it just dominated the room so I opted for the screen and a projector and a 32 inch TV if I want to watch the news w/o turning on the projector)

Thanks for the images Phil.

I love seeing what others have done with their audio/video rooms.

This (below pic) was the old house master bedroom system. The TV on the wall and speakers just dominated the room too much. The new room is a little bigger but I opted for the screen that folds into the ceiling and in-ceiling speakers so that it looks like a bedroom at first glance instead of a home theater. I had PVC run in the ceiling of the master bedroom and main systems to get HDMI cables from the components to the projectors.

This is the bonus room (has in-ceiling surrounds). I used this room while I was going back and forth until I sold the other house and moved the rest of my stuff

This is another system I have which I could make into a HT. It has in-ceiling surrounds (as does the office system but I am not using it for now in either system) but I've left it two-channel. I have a modded BDP-83 and may swap the BDP-93 that I have in the master bedroom (so I can play the music files attached to the hard drive - BDP-83 will just take a thumb drive - that way I could move the Teac DAC to another system)

Nice setup! Enjoy it to the fullest.

My modest system.
You guys have some very nice and upscale setups for sure. Would love to have one. Only in my dreams. However if my current setup makes me happy and I upgrade as I'm able, that's gotta count for something. Right?

Pretty far from that. But thank you. Audio Research 150.2 on the way with much thanks to wirenut. I'm excited with every little step I take. If anything, I hope seeing what I have, those more fortunate than me will appreciate the things they have like I am. Most of the time. Ha. Everybody has to start somewhere and this is where I am Paradigm monitor 11's, 15" DIY sub, Onkyo TX-NR808, and 50" Panasonic plasma, Sony blue ray. Garage system is marantz 1030 and kef c30's. Everytime I turn either one of these up, I smile and close my eyes.

The point of all this is to find your personal level of Utopia, escape, nervana, relaxation, or whatever name you give it in your own mind.
You system is looking good, and if you've got "eyes closed" moments, then you should spend more time doing that, as opposed to needing bigger, better, faster, more.

Rock on man. You're doing it right.

Bob

Hear, hear!!

Some mighty fine rooms there, Phil. Very nice.

Thanks very much Bob. Glad to see I can be welcomed just the same as others. Much appreciated. My mom used to take me to any high end stores we could find when I was a kid. Which is very limited in my area. Anyhow, that's how I got so into it as a passionate hobby as a kid.

That's a 120" screen.

Bob in St. Louis · « **Reply #195 on:** 9 Nov 2014, 12:53 am »

Awesome.

Bob2 · « **Reply #196 on:** 9 Nov 2014, 03:14 am »

Steno looks like a great setup! As Bob in St. louis said, awesome!
Dukecv, if your happy with your setup, then that is all that matters! Very nice!
This hobby can drive you in many directions and put a serious case of the hurts on your wallet...
But then that is part of the fun of it all....Rock on!

Theater with IB subs in the floor, real cool for movies. Screen drops down from above from speaker to speaker and hides equipment when viewing movies.
