Cool entertainment center!
That's some serious adjustability that can be done.

Well, the Sub was a flat pack that I glued up and painted, and the shelving is just made up of straight cuts from a sheet of plywood, so not exactly "Wood Working"

Turning out to be a nice man cave. You should be proud of the work. How's the sound? I was wondering about basements vs. rooms upstairs.

Thanks!

Well, no vibrations come through the floor of the basement, but the first floor of the house will be excited by the sub when the volume is up and the sound track gets bombastic. I do wish my room was a bit wider, to allow for more 2 channel soundstage development, but there isn't really a bigger room in the house, so it is what it is. The shelving, full of books, magazines, and records, does a good job of diffraction and absorption of reflections, so it's built in acoustic treatment. Overall I'm very pleased with the sound.

Oh, and I've wired the sub to work with the 2-channel system as well as the HT.
When just using 2-channel, signals above 30Hz are filtered, and the HT filters everything below 80Hz fed to the 2-channel so it works out very well...
