And the headphones which are Denon D2000. I made the wooden cups myself out of zebrawood on a lathe. The stock ones were grey plastic. ALso recabled them with upgraded cable. With the right headphone amplifier these sound AMAZING. I enjoy gaming with them on as much as I do using the home theater.


You're more proof that it's not about how much you spend to get a great setup, but what you spend it on. Looking at these types of setups makes me anxious to unveil my gameroom in all it's glory.

You say that like it wouldn't cost so much to make one such as that.

All those lights dont drive you nuts??? Even on the Kuro? Your setup looks like a space ship taking off.

Adjustable Dimmer or no sale.

I agree, can't stand how many lights most pieces of equipment have these days. I have 0 light coming from mine now. :D

Actually that's not strictly true—there's a red LED that comes on when my amp is muted, I've left that one uncovered.

This picture? uhh I can explain really!
It's been awhile since I posted an update on my setup so I thought I would. Still haven't purchased a suitable surround sound setup but there's a fantastic 2.1 Sony Soundbar I've been eyeing. Anyhow, without further ado...

The systems and controllers. The guitar with the nice sticker job is my soon to be wife's. Mine is the one with random hot mess everywhere. And she's practicing for our wedding (next Saturday... no first dance, we do first Guitar Heroing).

The media... but I could have sworn that there was more around here somewhere...

Oh yeah...

It's spilling out of this freakin' closet. There's a number of additions from the last time I took a picture of this room, but it's still a hot mess.

How do you people avoid dust? I can't go 3 hours without all my stuff being attacked by dust. I wipe everything down all the time, but it just keeps piling up.

I'm waiting on going multichannel until I get a larger space. Been playing a lot of Hot Shots Golf Out of Bounds on this lately. :D


I need that TV stand. And what size is the TV?

Have a fun! Enjoy!

Special thanks to:
- Ikea for being awesome in space optimization.
- Apple for putting a multitouch pad on the MacBook Pro so that I don't feel the need for a mouse (and space for it).

My strategy for minimizing the dust problem is just to keep the lights low enough that you can't actually see it. Then again, I'm a lazy slob so your mileage may vary.

you know, if i was dropping 6 million on a home theater, i might think about having

-seating for more than 3 people
-reclining seats
-somewhere to set your drink

this clown couldn't come up with something better than a tiny couch and a coffee table with a giant fucking fish on it? :lol

There was a time that I could have easily outdone you collection wise, but I've sold off so much stuff at this point that my collection is only a fraction of what it was. Looking at your photos, I'm so conflicted: on one hand, I really miss having the crazy collection that I used to have. On the other, it makes me think about how much I've spent on games in my life, and how worthless it all kind of seems.

Ya, no kidding. I imagine what I can do with between 30 and 50k to have a real home theater, so six million I would have expected more.
