KASR's Humble Home Setup

by KASR

Very much still a work in progress as my home theater and audio/video needs grow. I started out with a Sony Wega 3LCD 50" and an LG Home Theater in a Box ... but then I upgraded to a dedicated receiver (Harman Kardon AVR154) and the Polk 5.1 setup (RM6750) and it all changed for me. Since then I've managed to upgrade most all the components and I am still getting some great life out of the RM6750 satellites as the side and rear surrounds. Equipment: Mitsubishi 60735 60" DLP Marantz NR1501 Polk RM6750 Polk Monitor 50's Polk CS1 Center 2x Sennheiser RS120 Toshiba HD-A20 Xbox 360 Pro Archos Media Player 504 Acoustic Research PW101 Bedroom: Olevia 242T 2x Acoustic Research AWD209

60" at about 8 feet away - I'm actually standing behind the theater seats and shooting over the backs, so the depth of the room looks longer. I've been playing with distance on the chairs and setting up the best possible sound-field. I've been thinking about which color to paint the interior walls of the room - but this is what it looks like at full luminance from the two torch lamps.	The rack - it used to look fuller with the H/K AVR154, but now that I've got the Marantz slimline, everything has more breathing room - at first it took some getting used to, but it has really grown on me.	Seating arrangement - snagged these three reclining theater seats on craigslist for a steal! I have painted two high-back barstools for the riser that I am currently working on. The plan is to build the riser with a round barstool table in the middle - so when you want to eat and watch movies, you won't be eating on the leather seats. It'll also allow more seating. Here you can also see the RM6750 satellite being put to good use, using the paramount by peerless wall and ceiling mounting arms.
