Josh's Garage Setup - Blu-ray Forum

Bigblue622 · 01-02-2009, 04:39 AM

I'm 20 years old and currently live at home and go to school full time, so everything has to be done on a tight budget. I need to do alot of little things, such as wire management, repaint my cinder blocks and some more measuring to get everything straight and aligned but it's a ongoing process that I truly love.

As of November 4 of 2007 I had a 27" Magnavox tube TV, Xbox, PS2 and about 30 SD DVD's. Then I bought my Xbox 360, Toshiba HD A3 and a old 52" RCA Rear Projection CRT, I played with that TV for about a month and then realized I wanted some sort of HTiB so I bought the Onkyo HT-SR800 and fell in love with everything HT related.

I then bought a 42" LG plasma but had some issues with it and sold it for my current 42lg30 which is only 720p but I got a great deal on it and all the calibration options are awesome for someone who likes to play around with all the settings. In June I bought my PS3 and a Onkyo 606 receiver and I currently own 60 BD's 96 HD DVD's and about 100 SD DVD's.

That's what I'm saving for at the moment, however I plan on moving out after the Spring Semester so I'm not sure how quickly I will have the cash for new speakers.

Love the speaker stands... So urban... fit the "garage" scene to a T.

But seriously, nice setup.

Wow, didn't even remember it was there

I tried to clean up the wires a little bit today, I won't be able to post pics until Sunday but It looks a little better

Thanks for the comment, any suggestions would be appreciated.
