Nothing fancy, but at least it all fits!
Sick setup! Quick heads up on that receiver tho... I had that Dennon receiver and I was routing the HDMI through it for years for my ps4, xboxone, wiiU, etc. Finally had to run my ps4 direct to tv for whatever reason and I noticed that routing hdmi through the Dennon causes SEVERE input lag (although it was unnoticeable to me until I went direct).
It felt like my ps4 went from the little engine that could to a buttery smooth responsive monster. Input lag was night and day different. Give it a shot if you're running all video through the receiver and let me know if you notice the same difference.
All of my speakers are from Paradigm, a Canadian company specializes in high end audio. Their products range between $1000 to $50000 and more....

I use combination of Monitor 7 v2 and Monitor 9 v2, while these models are older compared to their new and shiny counterparts from manufacturer, they were their flagship speakers at the time so quality is top notch. Even to this day they fetch $1k per speaker in retail, god only knows what they charged for them in their prime.

Running 5.0 setup with tower on each side and center speaker. While i also own a sub, i frankly do not need it and enjoy the rumbles each tower produce. My reciever does have Atmos support +7.1, but i just settled for running 4 towers.
I suppose if you are in to audio, upon reading very first thinning that may come to your mind.....but Varvor...what about mids? Suprisngly enough with enough tweaking of audio settings, 4 towers and center channel compensate for mids by sheer virtue of quality of highs and lows..
Right now two smaller towers serve literally no purpose beyond aesthetics, they are there to give more visual impact...speakers not even connected lol

Is there any way of disabling the bluetooth for the pro controller when docked?
How would you use it then? Via wire?
Woah! I always dreamed of doing something like that. Kuddos for pillimg this off!
Also that fireplace is amazing.

Exactly, via USB. I thought this was added via an update but there is still no way to disable bluetooth when docked. What am I missing here?

Now I don't feel so bad. I normally watch the channel. Lots of inspirational stuff on there.

For just a fraction of a second there I actually thought you had a Wii U attached to your wall above the light switch. 🤨

Thanks! We love the layout for sure =) I started looking for anything I could buy locally or online with this concept in mind and it just wasn't there. I came up with the designs and my friends who is an extremely talented carpenter built it. Well worth the time and investment. I just wish we had a little more room in it now, b/c I"m out of space!

I don't understand, the mids should be solid on those without any adjustments.

Thanks man, much appreciated! I'd like to do something similar for the PS4 Pro, Xbox One X, PC and other retro consoles that I have in our game room. There are a few things I would do differently in the build, such as outlets housed in the back (instead of the bottom where it's only accessible by removing the front trim board) and possibly a drawer on the bottom to keep all the controllers, batteries and extra gear.
There is no actual mids driver on my speakers outside center channel.
