Dukerock12's College Budget System - Blu-ray Forum

dukerock12 · 08-25-2009, 02:02 AM

With paying college bills, books, gas, and car all on minimum wage i still try to enjoy the one thing i love most with out breaking the bank. All of my equipment is entry level but i still get the enjoyment out of every piece in my system. I hope that one day I'll have a great job to provide my family with a state of the art home theater like all of you guys here on bluray.com have. Any suggestions are appreciated. And yes i know my front speaker stands are ridiculous, but they make do. Enjoy!

Not bad for your entry system. I understand how ca$h can be tight as a college student.

Not sure how much wood skillz you have, but building some shelves and/ot speaker stands could be done rather inexpensively. Just get some flat black paint and paint them after you build them.

I recommend getting an a/v rack to organize your stuff and help clean up wire mess. The onkyo speaker rears I'd re-arrange for better placement. I had that 7.1 onkyo htib in my room originally. Sounds pretty good for what they are.
