I need a way to stealth my DVD drive for the HTPC tho...Its really annoying how the black drive is in the silver case.

^ I like the HTPC case! What brand?

lol, when i hooked my n64 up to my 52" LCD is scaled sooo badly lol, i couldnt imagine SNES

and yea that HTPC case is pretty sweet, what exactly do u guys use the HTPC's for??

They just look more like a home theater device instead of a standard computer case. I've had people over ask where my computer is :D

Antec NSK2400 :)

For downloading movies and watching it through the pc and as a pvr. Didn't want an empty plug in the back of the tv and I had a spare computer sitting in the closet so I converted it to a media center and hooked it up :D . I don't have a htpc case so I just put a tower behind the tv with all the wires and 2nd power bar on top of it. And I have no room for a htpc case on the tv stand anyways :p

Anyone interested in buying my Mozart Sx Slim with VFD and remote?

http://img.ncix.com/images/28236_l.jpg

Sells on NCIX for $235 with tax

I can do $180 even (shipping will cost me over $80!!!)

If you don't mind waiting, I can ship via surface which can take a few weeks but significantly cheaper - $125 for everything.

The case has only been used for about a week, while I tested it for a review I wrote.

I just want to get rid of it, it's taking up what little space I have.

quite tempting..

Rather than start a new one lets bump this and see is anyone has got anything new.

:)

anyone know a good company that mounts tv's and hides all the cables?

Building a garage HT. Yes it's in the garage. It will have:

106 inch electric dropdown screen
Optima HD 65 PJ
5 inwall speakers
1 incelling 18 inch sub.

All electronics will be hidden in a cabinet in the back.
All controlled buy a Harmony remote.

Wiring is done. Now waiting for the insulation and drywall to be done in the garage.

*waves*
Apartment or house?

This tells us, Once you fall in love with HomeTheater stuff, you'll be burning money like crazy!!!! :D:D:D:D:D

err _hotsauce_, how does 3 rear speakers work? wouldn't that sound totally effed?

just me but I hate the look of speakers that sit further forward than the screen, looks wierd and distracting.


my setup:

Source:
Compaq Presario POS w/6800 OC + 370GB HDD + TV Tuner (runs HD just fine though)
N64
NES
SEGA Genesis
PSX
PS2
Gamecube

Screen:
Acer 19"

Sound:
Venturer HTIB [fronts + sub]
Sony mini stereo [rear]
Cyber Acoustics computer speakers [side]
(combined for wierd 7.3, sounds pretty good but changing volume is a bitch with 3 amp controls)

Comfort:
shitty computer chair
bed



parents setup:

Source:
Shaw HD PVR
PS3

Screen:
Samsung 52" beastie

Sound:
Fisher receiver and speakers [front]
(build date says Mar 1985 haha, still loud as all hell and pretty clear)

Comfort:
3 seat leather "media couch" (triple recliner w/ cup holders)
regular couch
bigass pillows (think predecessor to the SUMO beanbags)

too much money, and not enough knowledge. vacuum tube amps? really? people still believe that makes a difference? the layout doesn't seem to have a lot of acoustic tuning to it. and err, a projector with a res higher than is even used?

still, props for being able to spend that much and stay married haha
