Are there any kind of arms that I could attach to the wall and then attach to the back of the speakers that kind of rotate?

Good thing you don't have 12 foot ceilings.... you wouldn't even be able to get your surrounds in the shot !!!!!!

LMAO!!! I wish I could put them at ear level, but my son would destroy them by hanging on them or something and also the door wouldn't open. I thought about getting a curtain that would slide and look nice and just taking out the door but now i'm leaning towards just putting some arms up that will allow them to rotate down a little. I think I found some on a site yesterday that will work.

I think I might have to look into one of those. I'm looking for a new receiver at the moment and want something nice. Everyone likes the Onkyo's it seems so i'm really not sure what to go with. By the way, you have a cool dog...

The first TV is a Mitisubishi something, its so long ago, the middle TV was my TV, yes that was a 60" KDL-60XBR1, it was AMAZING!!! when it worked, I had the lamp replaced 4 or 5 times, the optical board replaced 3 times, the entire main board 1 time, and the TV was serviced so many times for so many problems, I started to hate it. Later under my waranty it was replaced by my dealer with a KDL-52XBR5, and the last of the original 3 pictures was a A2000 something, or just a SXRD 2000 I'm not sure exactly what I ordered over a year ago. Sony is my prefered selection for TV's, and Samsung would be my second however I don't own any Samsung equipment other than an old standard DVD player as a backup unit god only knows for what, although I did own a blu-ray BD-P1200 player from Samsung at one time which I sold for my PS3. I attached a few pictures of my new setups in the next post. Please enjoy (or don't lol) and comment. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

First off I know what you people think about Monster Cables, so bahhhh leave me alone on that one. Now down to the nitty gritty.

The first few pictures are of my completed setup for my bedroom. The setup includes a Sony Bravia KDL-40V3000, a Sony BDP-S301 connected via Monster Cables M Series, a 4 foot HDMI direct conection, using Sony's HDMI control setup, HD-TV being supplied via a Scientific Atlanta Explorer 8300HD DVR on Cablevision's HD Cable service, connected via another Monster Cable M Series HDMI cable, some small basic 5.1 audio is supplied via a Sony STR-K790 on optical connections, below that is my Sling Media, HD Sling Box for remote cable viewing, and a Samsung DVD-P421 basic progressive scan DVD player just in case, becuase I would never put a standard DVD in my Blu-ray player. Power is being supplied via an APC battery backup unit for line filtering and stability to protect against surges. Lighting of course is being supplied by a Cyron HT-902 home theater LED lighting kit with an extra 15" HTB-15 LED bar, set to deep blue, and all the devices are being controled by a Logitech Harmony 880 universal remote.

The living room and or home theater is as follows. The primary viewing TV is a KDL-52XBR5 on a Sony SXRD XBR stand, conected directly to my 40GB PS3 via another M Series cable, I am also using another Scientific Atlanta 8300 HD DVR unit for HDTV service on M Series cable as well. Audio switching is being supplied via THX optical cables and a Psyclone PSC-47 digital unit conected to a 5.1 Logitech THX Certified X-5500 Dolby Digital, and DTS 96 home theater speaker system. Lighting provided by Cyron the same setup as the bedroom listed above. All controled by another Logitech Harmony 880 remote.

A leather sofa and a Lazy Boy chair complete the room, along with some sci-fi and movie posters courtesy of Blockbuster video store (the 300 and terminator) for $30 each preframed and huge, and my 1:1 Battle Damaged Terminator Endo Skull from Sideshow Collectibles to top it off. My 95+ blu-ray movie collection sits hidden snugly away to keep the room clean and simple and to reduce any extra vibrations. I hope you enjoy and I hope this inspires more people to enjoy what people here at Blu-ray.com do... MOVIES!!!

I know there's padding and gromets to prevent the transmission of these fatal vibrations inherent with the components of home theater, but.. just be aware that a lot of boom boom could cause a crash.

It's been taken care of my friend................
