Mikkeli's dedicated HT

[mikkeli]

Here is some fresh pictures. Cork flooring is nearly complete and stairs are ready to be installed (needs some finishing). Room is currently VERY dusty so it looks horrible. Better pictures later...



Overall look from entrance.



Photo taken from screen wall.



Close-up of LED-light installation.



"Some" cables required for step-lights. All lights in HT will be remote controlled.

Again some fresh pictures. This is my "FIFA World Cup 2010 setup":





Pictures taken before i "installed" my AV-receiver, HD set-top box & PS3. AV equipment is just lying on the floor, custom built AV stand is coming in september...

Pictures are dark but so is my HT. Contrast is incredible to our midnight sun during this time of year. Sunshine 24 hrs per day Rosenut finish on all speakers was spot-on choice, at least in my opinion. AV stand is getting also rosenut finishing.

Hi and welcome to Blu-ray Forum! No i don't live in Mikkeli but somewhere "nearby" Jyväskylä.

Thank you for your feedback. Soon it is time for photoshoot of completed HT. Still waiting for my custom made AV-stand. HT is in everyday use already and it rocks

Uploaded old pictures again (this time to blu-ray.com).

Updated list of AV-gear (bold is updated, red are coming soon):

108" Multibrackets fixed frame screen
JVC DLA-HD350-B projector -> JVC DLA-X35-B projector
Harman Kardon AVR255 AV-receiver -> Yamaha RX-V771 AV-receiver -> Marantz SR7010 AV-receiver
Marantz MM7025 power amplifier
7.1 system from SVS in rosenut finish:
- MTS-01 main speakers
- MCS-01 center
- MBS-01 for side & rear surround
- PB13-Ultra subwoofer
SVS Ultra Surround (black oak)
KEF Ci200RR-THX
Oppo BDP-83 region free
Sony BDP-S480 (for 3D movies)
Toshiba HD-DVD
Playstation 3
HDTV set top box
Popcorn Hour A-110 -> HDI Dune Duo
+ smaller pieces (PS3 remote adapter, remote adapter for lights, Gigabit ethernet switch...)

HT is getting next big update, Dolby Atmos. Setup will be 9.1.2 (pair of MBS-01 speakers moving to front wide position, Ultra Surrounds will be new side speakers and KEF speakers will be in top front position).

Marantz SR7010 has only 9 amplifier channels, so i had to add Marantz MM7025 power amplifier for main speakers.
