Slec's HT mess - Blu-ray Forum

Slec · 09-14-2010, 01:12 AM

Due to a job transfer I'm moving to Newport News, VA from RI. We're buying a house, but it's much smaller than the one we are in now. Eventually we'll be doing an addition, which is when I will really fight to put in some sort of Rec room/Home theater. Here's my setup for the next couple days, then everything will be boxed up and moved.

Gone will be the large living room. The new place has a much more open floor plan, but everything is so much smaller and despite my best efforts, I cannot use the dining room as an extension of the living room

.

Next week or the week after, maybe some people can help out with ideas on setting up the room. Once we're in, I'll take pictures. The pics I have now have staged furniture.

New House Setup:
The new place has a tv mounted above the fireplace with built-in bookcases/cabinets beside it. My current Surrounds (Klipsch RB-35's) will have to suffice for now, and I don't think the towers are going to work as fronts any longer. The LR area will be about 20' x 12' but that includes the front door and entrance. 15' or 16' by 12 may be all that's usable (with the fireplace and bookcase setup taking up one of the 12' walls).

More pics to come, just making a place holder for now!
