WOW!
Every adjective I an use has been used. Including WOW!

I cannot even have time to do work on our new place. Even though three rooms are ready and two are left untouched. Like someone said my projects are small.

So mike, like me many on this forum might be wondering;)

Or is it just me:)

What do you do? :cool:

haha. thanks guys.

Chuck,
i can actually go ahead to install the screen and projector now, but i'm holding back til we're ready to move in ... since tech stuff can only get cheaper and newer, i'd say it's a good thing to wait :)

plus, i'm still enjoying my father's two Ultras :) he can wait til my own arrives :)
 
WOW simply awesome and I second the notion about the video tour!!!! Man do I wish I won the lottery...I might even buy the floor plans for your house..LOlzzz

You don't need to...

All you gotta do is to work for Mike (killing people, perhaps) and you'll be done, for sure! ;)

BTW Mike, how many do I have to shot down in order to have a system like yours??:p:cool::eek:

Regards, Chuck

It has been a while since I've visited this thread, Mike. It's all looking very smart! I'd enjoy an updated picture of the finished koi pond (should you get the time away from killing people).

You should be very proud of your home work, buddy.

we've been having leaks on the fishpond, so it's been filled and drained quite a few times now, i'll be sure to post a vid on the pond once it's running :)
 
i've finally been able to measure the room.
within finished walls
it's 8' high on the lower level; 88" on the upper level
15 feet wide
25 feet long (i know there's 1.5-2' of space behind the screen)

Looks great! Do the subwoofers go under the screen?

What made you decide to not do an acoustically transparent screen and put the speakers behind that?

Are you really going to use that karaoke thing? :eek::D If so, post videos.

Are you ever going to leave that room once it is done? I don't think I would be able too.;)

yes they go under the screen, they're actually the reason i couldn't get the Paradigm Studio CC690 :(

i have subouts in the rear, but i prefer the subs up front.

i don't have access to any acoustically transparent screens unfortunately.

i do have hidden karaoke speakers below the screen. (forgot to take pics, will dig up pics from my dad's camera when i get it)

i don't sing ... i don't want to cause any trouble :D

the CC590 isn't available yet, so the dealer was kind enough to lend me a CC370 - nice.

oh and i had two different dealers working at the same time :D and we still didn't finish.

Once again, I'm stunned. Just when I think you can't amaze me anymore, you do it again. That, my friend, is one absolutely beautiful room.
