Just a shot of what i have in the bedroom right now. Should have more progress pics in the next few days.

Beta Man · 06-22-2009, 11:02 PM

Looks like you have a lot of work to do

What are the plans right now? Do you have another room you can use, or plan on keeping the setup in a bedroom?

Grevlin · 06-22-2009, 11:04 PM

that's "scratch" as in: starting from

Looking forward to pics, good luck.

My system looked like that about 4 years ago...

blu1183 · 06-22-2009, 11:06 PM

wouldnt really refer to that pic as a theater...

kay9 · 06-22-2009, 11:07 PM

Actually, i am already in the progress part. The pic was taken last Wednesday and started the changes on Friday and through the weekend.
It will still be in our bedroom as the wife likes to watch movies in bed while having popcorn etc. Adjustable bed is the "listening" position.

Gonna miss that universal remote. 2 years and never lost it and never had trouble navigating on it.

Grevlin · 06-22-2009, 11:11 PM

I thought it was the angle of the pic, how big is that clicker?

kay9 · 06-22-2009, 11:14 PM

11" by 4"

I try to reverse that ratio, big screen / small remote

Good luck on your build and keep more photos coming.

Damn, why can't I find a women like that.

The home/beedroom theatre is deff loking promising.

Beta Man · 06-23-2009, 12:43 AM

whoa... wasn't expecting full front-projection setup for the bedroom...... gonna be better than I had thought.... that's for sure!

kay9 · 06-23-2009, 02:09 AM

Well it looks like i took a pre-mature deep into the world of separates.
Due to the L/R Channels of the Onkyo TX-SR876 not working i purchased a used Emotiva LPA-1 amp to run the front channels. The Onkyo 876 is doing the surround channels and the Video/Audio processing.

Hopefully this week i can focus on cable management, painting the raceways, subdudes for the Kappas, new tier stand and rearrangement of the components then some HT decor.

Telling from my wife big goggling eyes and smile through out watching Man On Fire on blu i can take that she approved the bedroom home theater.

Progress Pics taken half hour ago.

Another shot.

Infinity Kappa Perfect VQ sub (rear) and Polk Audio Rear Speaker.

Grevlin · 06-23-2009, 02:19 AM

That's how you upgrade!

SlmShdy1 · 06-23-2009, 02:56 AM

Are you going to send the 876 back for repair?

kay9 · 06-23-2009, 03:13 AM

In the future i will. Awaiting the bill of sale receipt from the ebay seller (Authorized Onkyo Vendor) but i am in no hurry as i am just getting over the warranty service procedures from Epson regarding the 6500UB and not yet ready to go back into all the hassle again.
