Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater My Home Entertainment Center

I am certainly positive that my plasma won't overheat. I put a thermometer around where the plasma is going and it wasn't even close to 90 degrees Fah. If you see where the plasma is going to be mounted, their is about 10 inch depth in it, so the heat from the fireplace doesn't go directly to the plasma.

I got pics of my HT setup as of now. For now the T.V is on a pedestal and I only hooked up the front speakers, center, and sub to the receiver. A FTA receiver, Oppo DVD player, and Wii is also connected to it.

Here are some pics so far of my setup:



The wall behind the T.V is where the T.V is going to be mounted.



My speakers match my wooden floor.



EP500 sub at the corner.



Front setup (keep in mind I only have three speakers attached to receiver for the time being.



Close up of the 58" Panasonic Plasma. I was playing The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for the Wii and its amazing. When connected with the Axiom speakers and sub, it does wonders!

P.S The quality of pics doesn't do justice. I took them with my cell.

Beautiful, Paul! I love that built-in.

Is that real marble?!?! Did you set it yourself?

That's a lot of hearts on Zelda. I guess you've played it some.

Oooooh! Aaaaah!

Mad skills.

Very nice, indeed.

That built-in will look real nice when it's complete. How much space, if any, will you have around the perimeter of the display? Post up some pics with a higher res camera when everything's said and done. grin:

I will have a few inches from the top and bottom. On the sides 7 inches on each side to give it some ventilation.

And yes, I will post up higher res. pics when everything is complete.

ok, I am gonna update the pics of my setup currently. I am about 95% complete. Ill be posting the pics tommorrow or in the next few days depending on my schedule.

Ok, I finally almost finished completing my entertainment center. I used my sisters camera to take better image pics.



regular view of my setup.



Rear right channel

note: I am thinking of putting this channel on the main wall beside it (position it like the RL speaker). This is due to changing plans of the seating arrangements.

A far image of how my setup looks like from a sofa (point of view) that is across the basement (for those who don't want to gather around the T.V.).

Same image but with the dimmers on.
