I got my trunking (similiar to Kempz) a BnQ.. quite cheap really.
 
Cool B&Q

Hopefully gonna go from 5.1 to that good stereo setup in july this year :yumyum:

That would make a few less cables too :D

Cool, and yes True HD and DTS MA HD are good.

Do keep your worklog to your own thread tho :)
 
Right time for another update!

Still have the desk (it was made by my missus's Dad as a B-Day present when she was little so it's a permanent fixture!), but have now re-organised the room a little and got down to Ikea too. Plan is to start adding a little red to the room to go with the fronts of the cabinet.

Also wired up my Panasonic DMP-BD35 with a LAN cable and aside from a big pile of wires on the floor, cabling is pretty neat :) BD35 is off at Peter Tyson to diagnose and (hopefully) fix a problem with clicking whilst playing CDs.

Improvement?
 
Thanks mate - I like it :) It was quite hard work but hopefully it's worth it :D

It's a mini-Henry I got for Chrimbo. Not amazingly good hoover, but it looks cool and sweeps up the crumbs when needed :p
 
I am just waiting for Cambridge Audio to update their AV amps to support HDMI 1.3 then I will be setting up my system.

Gotta build my htpc first, any advice on a case? Just want a basic one, with vdf/lcd.

My girlfriend and her mate both bought each other one. They are sooo funny.
 
I love the slouchy sofa you have there

must be great to snuggle up on and watch a film

im trunking all my wires and painting etc. come summer and i will be looking at your setup for inspiration

where did u get those random pics on the wall - looks very subtle
 
Thanks mate. The futon is OK for comfort (Ikea ~ £100), the pillows make it pretty comfortable. We need it to be a bed quite a lot as we have people stay round here quite often and the missus insists that this is our second bedroom, not just my AV room :p Still, it's good to sit in here with the missus and will be even better when I get my BD35 back!

Trucking is all good. There's loads of choice out there but I went for the cheap option and it looks pretty decent. The good thing is that you just cut a hole in it if you want to join it or have a lead come out before the end of the trunk :)

The pics on the wall are banksy-esque prints from my local shopping mall but I believe most poster/art-esque shops have something of that ilk. They look really nice on the wall and add a nice splash of colour :)
