Not every day I can post that everything in this picture is new. Ok, we built the table behind the couch a few years ago, but literally everything else is new.

More info here on the components and the home reno behind it.

diskreet's first true home theater

Background: Started planning to install a home theater into our new living room (as best I could) when we undertook a major home renovation. I'm coming off cheap sound bars and half-decent headsets prior to this, but I always wanted something better. Since planning started, I've been learning...

I go to two of them Thrift dtore every week just to see what they got. I mostly pickup Vinyl for 1-2 bucks then leave. Don’t know much about golf, but I bet those are decent. Im sure they are gone since alot of people play golf here in Florida.

Those look familiar. I love my color, but those look fantastic. To my surprise they sound really good in a home theater setup. Congrats. You got some great stuff this month.

Got 4 classical boxsets(35 CDs all together) for $4 + Bubble DVD $1 from of all places dollar tree yesterday! The other stuff is thrift stuff.

New Lion King/Toy story on BD $2 each. Vinyl $2 each. That Luis Miguel I was surprised to see. Had it on CD.

I've got La Bamba (about Richie Valens), next is to try to find a movie about The Big Bopper to complete the theme.

I’m assuming you have a 4K TV as well, you’ll have to give us an update on your opinion of how games play. Also how quiet is the Blu-ray player and fan noise?

I only have played Assassin's Creed so far, but I sold an older 850D and got a 900H 65 inch. Unit is really whisper quiet, you can not hear it from like 6 feet away and even up close. The drive makes nor more noise than a typical High end 4k Blu-Ray player, it is also quiet.

Load Times: Finally no long waits, so nice!

PS5 comes tomorrow

Too old? Crazy talk. My parents have been gamers since the 70's and haven't even thought about stopping. They're into VR now thanks to my brother.

I'll grab a PS5 too, but I'll wait till Gran Turismo comes out like I've done every other playstation.
