t's functional at this point, but still work to be done. Watching the game now in HD is awesome on 106" screen. Still left to do: -Hide speaker wire in walls -Figure out why sub is not working over RG6 cable. Probably my connector/crimping technique -audio test w/speakers -get new mount for projector (don't like the current one) -repaint room Waiting on theater seats (back ordered)  Going to buy new front speakers and center channel |

Awesome! Looks great!
What are you going to do to hide the speaker wire? What kind of theater seats did you order?

I'm going to fish them into the wall and use speaker jacks behind the speaker then repatch and repaint the old hole or just put up face plates over the hole and paint them the same color as the wall. I ordered some Berklines http://www.berkline.com/proPageTheater.asp?cat=&model=090 |

to a certain extent. However, I'm not an audiophile like you and I'll definitely call on you for assistance. Here's a question for you, would I notice the difference between the two: - an optical audio connection from A/V receiver to CD or Sat box - normal l/r audio cable from A/V receiver to CD or Sat box |

Here's a question for you, would I notice the difference between the two: - an optical audio connection from A/V receiver to CD or Sat box - normal l/r audio cable from A/V receiver to CD or Sat box well first of all, you should get directionality correct the cable goes from the CD/Sat box/etc TO the receiver. and there are pricy directional analog (RCA type) cables (which help diminish the undesired noise/interference from the receiver), and there are optical audio (TOSLINK Type) cables of vastly different quality (bandwidth, loss over length, etc, shielding, etc) |
