Work in Progress

My first Post,





Well I'm building my First Home Theater and I'm just going with the bose lifestyle 35 system cause the room is fairly small and I'm building the room from scratch as it's been completely gutted and reformed. So far I hired StoneFabrication company to re-build my Granite Fireplace and I've been slowly laying the woodfloor myself with my nailer and aircompressor. The cuts are tedious slow and annoying, especially the steps I'm about to do. The following images are taken from my Blackberry so pardon the low image quality. But the Door you see in the rear is a Temp Door, as i will remove it and then fill it with dry wall and spackle.

So I've alredy setup the ceiling with speaker wire and I'll bring the wires to the front through the CrawlSpace for a simple 5.1 setup. But at the moment I'm laying wood floors and I've purchased the Bose lifestyle 35 setup for this room and I'll post more images as I go along. I'm thinking about going with a 55 inch Samsung LED, but I'm unsure of what size I want I still have alot of work left on filling but everyday I'm a bit closer, and I plan to use these forums for help or guide along the way Thanks.

Nice looking dark-hardwood.....

I've never laid hardwood flooring before..... Helped someone do Pergo to their rental though.... but that's not the same thing.....

Yea it's Brazillian Red Wood from BR 111 (Exotic HardWood Flooring) I'm using an Air Compressed Nailer and Hammering away at the floor to even things out I'll put more images of the Parts of this theater again it's slowly coming together but I still don't have a TV and need suggestions I want either 46 or 55 inch and can't spend over 3 grand for the TV. I'm thinking I want an LED but am unsure at the moment, I'm trying my best to do the cleanest install within my power for this room right now, and again it's my first.

This is my Sound Setup I went with for this room, http://www.bose.com/controller?url=/...e_35/index.jsp.

Just that and aPS3

Parts Waiting to be put together: ** I appologize for the low quality images taken from my Blackberry** Perhaps at a lower Res- It'll look better overall.

Well this is the Steps that I was talking about, believe it or not but molding this took me forever and my Carpentry skills are ok, not great, but ok and this is the best I could do with the wood, nail and glue, hope you approve.



each corner will have a speaker so far I pre set the wiring to be hidden,





Set, waiting to be opened and placed/ Brackets waiting to be setup:


Clean Central Wire Unit that will be installed where you see my door, and then I'll fill it up with Drywall and do a Repaint of the Entire Wall.

Sofa with Base Board waiting to be put together (The back piece sneaks up when lifted from rear of the sofa)


My Captains Chair for the room:

I hope it looks Promising so far, trying to do this slowly and Cleanly as possible, for that Professional Look of a room. However I am running out of time cause school starts in 3 weeks, lol. And to think we were doing beer pong in this room just last year. Now it'll be a Great Show Room.

The Central Speaker Wire to hide everything and have everything meet in the center, I'll install this inside that door you see in the rear, and again I will repaint the west wall and spackle and make sure everything looks clean.
