New Cabinet and NHT Speakers
The new audio cabinet houses the center channel and subwoofer. A custom mounted LCD panel to control Computer will be installed this week inside the cabinet. (Uploaded May 03, 2009 22:28:18)
cabinet
The cabinet was custom made to match the bar in the back (Uploaded May 03, 2009 22:28:29)
cabinet
The diamond shape wood emblem and front striations are also found on all of our fireplace mantles and my desk (Uploaded May 03, 2009 22:28:40)
NHT speakers
All front, centers and subwoofer are from NHT line circa 1995. These sound very good. I was trying to convince myself that the yamaha speakers originally in the theater were of the same sound quality as the NHT. The yamaha speakers were slightly below average, the NHT line is pretty good, B&W-Paradigm reference-Revel are well above excellent. But I want to stay married so I'll stick with my NHT's. (Uploaded May 03, 2009 22:28:51)
NHT 1.3A
Very good bookshelf speaker for the price. I can't speak for the new line of NHT, but these sound great. (Uploaded May 03, 2009 22:29:02)
Construction
Theater in progress. This DIY project took a while, but the results were worth the wait (Uploaded Feb 28, 2009 17:18:40)

Entrance
Walking through the double doors and into the theater (Uploaded Feb 28, 2009 17:19:15)
Theater
The theater in back is a custom built bar with theater bar stools to match the chairs in front. This way you could literally eat dinner and watch a show. I can't take credit for this idea (obviously many people are doing it now), but I saw an ad for RUNCO and they had a bar in the back. Downside is it sits on cereamic tile (not good for sound reverb), but who cares - it looks good. (Uploaded Feb 28, 2009 17:20:02)
Theater
Back of the equipment rack. We have a storage area just in back of the theater, so I made a quick access door to equipment. More important is the opening serves as a way for the heat to escape. (Uploaded Feb 28, 2009 17:20:14)
Emotiva
Everyone at this forum and every other review that I've read gave a big thumbs up emotiva amps. The UPA-2 powers my fronts and an Onkyo amp powers both centers. I have two powered subs. One NHT and the other an Infinity IL120 **GET ONE OF THESE INFINITYS IF YOU CAN** AMAZING BASS. the sides and rears are powered by my Yamaha so my AVR dosn't really get that hot. I love this emotiva amp. Anyone that tells you that there is a better 2 channel amp is absolutely right. Anyone that tells you there is a better amp for the price, they are dead wrong. At $269 this is a steal.

GENE
Theres nothing like hearing Gene sing "Nothing To Lose" at a high volume on a big screen. Watching early KISS (1974-76) is one of my guilty pleasures. (Uploaded Mar 02, 2009 19:02:44)
HTPC: THE BEAST IS UNLEASHED!
Core 2 Quad Q9650 * 4 TB Hard Drive Space * GTX 295 Video Card * HDTV Cable Line * Aerocool, IMON Ultra Bay * Landline Network
This computer is directly linked to audio in Home Theater with 2 outlets of video, One is the computer monitor above and the other is the projector inside the HT room. Easy to download and watch in 1080p. (Uploaded Mar 23, 2009 23:16:32)
XBOX and Beast
These 2 make the most noise so they stay in the mechanical room (storage) on the other side of the theater room. The XBOX is RF so direct line of site is not necessary. (Uploaded Mar 23, 2009 23:16:43)
AEROCOOL and IMON
The Imon scrolls internet news leads and acts as a graphic eq. the aerocool watches all temps and acts as a card upload. (Uploaded Mar 23, 2009 23:16:52)
NEW! IPOD integration.
I have the ipod hooked up directly to the XBOX. it recognizes it and displays all info on the screen. I just use the joystick on the XBOX to pick and choose songs and titles. (Uploaded Mar 24, 2009 20:35:24)
upclose of IPOD
IPOD is mounted on the faceplate of one of the amps. (Uploaded Mar 23, 2009 23:17:10)

Forgive me for saying but wouldn't 2 center channels cancel out each other for the person sitting between the 2 speakers. I'm not an audio engineer but I do know a few things about sound and how it travels. My suggestion is add a second sub and place one speaker in middle for center to keep balanced look. Other than this perfection at its best.

I could kiss you (not in *that* kind of way though!) I've been racking my brain trying to figure out a way to add a 2nd row of seating in my HT, but since I have a low ceiling height, a riser is pretty much out of the question... A BAR!! Brilliant! *grabs some 2x4s*

Great install, very clever ideas. I like what you did with the equipment behind the curtains. I built my room from scratch, but was'nt as clever as you. Well done.

Beautifully executed room! Very nice job on the integration of the component rack. You should definitely tell your wife: "See, I told you so!"

Wow, One of the cleanest and most sophisticated home theatres I've seen. Not the least bit over the top and gaudy as many are imo.
Well done !

Wow, very very well done. I hope that the wife is proud of you for making it look very professional and clean. I doubt you could have paid anybody to have made it look that good.

You'r Home Theater is just awesome looking, very upscale, and love the color scheme. You'r idea of the EQ are is really cool. And Dual center channel's. very smart. I had the Marantz AV600 THX Pros. 12 years ago and it actually had dual center channel outputs , so you could put one above & below the screen, not many pepole ever do this though. ALL in ALL you got a 10 rating , Great job well done.
