College Student Home Theater

Here's my apartment theater owned by a poor college and aviation student. Let me know what you think!

Pretty damn cool.. I'd move the screen lower if I were you but I'm definitely jealous

very cool setup, wish I had a projector

Yeah I really wish I could move it down but the front entertainment rack is too high. Maybe I can find a way to move the center channel into the rack. What do you think of that idea? Then it can be lowered about 7 more inches.

What I did with my plasma was move the equipment to its own rack off in the corner and put the center channel on a shelf below the screen.

You could also build a Flexy rack - http://www.tnt-audio.com/clinica/flexye.html - to replace the one you have, and make it a little bit shorter. These things are brain-dead easy to make and look pretty good.

Of course, if the height of the screen doesn't bother you then there's no reason to go through the trouble is there

Yeah I'd love to make the screen lower. Unfortunately I spent $100 on that entertainment center from IKEA about 2 years ago and I want to keep it until I can put it somewhere else. If I could do it all over again I'd make that Flexy rack! That rack is so cool looking.

Very nice! I plan on adding a projector to my setup once I have some extra cash and the space. Right now the dorm just isn't cutting it for theater space.

Nice! Another Energy system.

How do you find the C-3s with the C-C1? I know my C-1s blend like crazy with it, but its all the same drivers.

I had an E:xl subwoofer too, the S8. Not bad, but to small to get low with any dBs.

I think it sounds great - it's just amazing how much of a difference a better center channel will do in a home theater set up! It was common for people to use the C-7's with a C-C3 and that center channel is quite a bit "inferior" if you were to consider it's frequency response - yet it still works great as a center.

I made some updates to the link I turned it into a Home Theater website
