Nice. How big is the room? I have a converted garage which would be easy to light control, but it is very narrow (about 2.5m wide)
Our projector is currently in the lounge which is white, has south facing windows across the entire room, and is almost impossible to light control - so contrast is crap or we only watch in the winter.

Not a big room is about 5x5m i think. Was main reason i bought the house. Its a extra room at end of narrow hallway. My bluray Shelves picture is the the hallway just outside the room. I like to keep as much stuff out of the room itself so when you you use it , all you see is the screen when lights off, helps with immersion/contrast etc
Here in the Netherlands we have loads of canvas printing companies that let you design custom prints on canvas of all sorts of sizes, including three piece versions. Got my stuff at webprint.nl and hema. I have no clue where you live though
Thank you all so much for your recommendations! I will check them all out. Located in the US. Forgot to mention that!

Beautifully done! The view is also perfect.

This thread always makes me so jealous. My place is a mess at the moment, I can't wait to move and get a proper setup.

No reason to be jealous, people have different priorities. I've sunk five figures into woodworking tools in the last couple of years.
I've come to grips with the fact that I'll never have the funds or a space big enough to do some of the things that people have posted. It's still awesome seeing their setups though.
After seen some of the gaming setups, Can i get some tips on making mine look more neat, talking about the amount of cords and cables? I have right now Xbox 360, Cable box, 1 tv, one monitor, Xbox One and PS4 (as well as the router with the Ethernet cable for 2 of the consoles), much appreciate for any tips on how to not make it look so messy around the tv/electronic stand.

I wouldn't mind seeing what people load out with when they leave the house, like a What's In Your Bag thread. Like if you leave with more than one game, how are you carrying it, etc. Every time I go into the office it feels like I'm loaded for geek wars.

I really like this desk and setup. Unfortunately I don't have the space for it right now.I changed my setup a bit, so I figured it was time for a new picture:

I really like this idea! I only have one home console (my playstation 3), but I'm always loaded up on gadgets. I also have an obsession with changing my carrying cases every other week it seems.

I have this for my desk. I work from home so it gets a lot of use and if I sit properly gives excellent back support.
I got mine for about $50 as there was a small mark on it. Not sure it is worth 125 GBP.
If you are looking for comfort, I am never uncomfortable in it just don't expect luxury and go have a sit in it for 30 minutes while at your local Ikea. (Then buy as many Ikea hotdogs as possible)
Isn't that one of those chairs that cost more than some peoples rigs? lol. Better be the most comfortable chair in existence.

That's more or less what I want for a setup eventually. Ikea Galant desk with Lack shelfs right? Looks nice.
I like the Redwall book collection too!

It's much more about health than comfort (although they are quite comfortable).

I have a serious love hate relationship with this thread. On one hand it gives me some great ideas for mine, but on the other it just makes me really jelly. Lol

Wow, some really amazing setups in this thread. Here's mine:
Desk
Entertainment center
PC
Pioneer Kuro 500M, Denon 2809 receiver, Klipsch Icon V-series speakers. PC is hooked up to the TV of course. Window behind the TV looks much brighter than it actually is because I had to open the blinds a bit to get a good shot and I have a bad camera. I also have a PS4, but haven't taken a new picture.
Love your set up and your art : )

I like the vertical screen, seems like a good idea for reading forums.
I love threads like this, hate being late to the party but here's my setup, please excuse the wires!

ehh i tend to agree but that's kinda amateur hour though
7 speakers
2 subs
14 systems
only wires exposed are wired controllers (glorious) and the upscaler, though
Wow, halfway through the year and I haven't posted in this thread yet. Well, not too much has changed since last year; I have the same utilitarian setup as always. I did get a new TV (a Sony W900A), and the PS4 and XB1. Oh, and a few posters framed.
First time posting to this thread. Be gentle. PC and Retron 5 hooked up in my office. (The WiiU is upstairs so the kids can also use it.)
damn...see, these are some collections worth having, right here

In case anyone else was wondering
http://time.com/87809/analogue-nt-classic-nes-reborn-as-a-500-luxury-machine/
I'm building a new computer case and I feel like this is a good place to share it. The dimensions are 2 feet long, 1 foot across, 1/2 foot tall. The channel up the side will be for cable management.
the progress so far (don't worry that's a dead mobo used for reference) :
the plan:
I'll post pictures of my triple monitor setup when this bad boy is sitting next to it.

- Sony BDPS-470
- Panamax M5100-PM
- Cable Modem + Netgear Nighthawk (R7000)
Speakers: Infinity Primus (4 363's, PC351) and Outlaw Audio M8 sub (rear's and sub not pictured)

Really cool! What are the middle fans for though?
Making something like that is one of my dreams. I'm not handy though, so it will probably never happen.

Pretty amazing how similar this is to my setup, except I was too worried about wear over time to go with a white galant, so I went with birch. That and I went with green embody fabric to match the walls.
I need to finish cleaning everything up and snap a picture.

Just added a PS4 to the mix, so time to post my 2014 edition.
(At some point, I'll get around to re-arranging the systems and re-doing the cabling, but it was a lot easier, not to mention quicker, to put the PS4 and Wii U where they are now).

This side mostly unchanged from last year's setup
My happy family of controllers; Wii U in the background

Newest addition.

Oh yeah, I got one of these since last year too!

For a cpu radiator mount (single or double), and to keep the airflow constant throughout the case.

Yep. I originally got a 48", thought it would be big enough. Nope! Returned it and upgraded! <3 Costco.

i noticed a few guys here did some nice Cable management and need some help.
Currently, the rear of my setup is just a mass of wires. Ethernet, HDMI, power, speaker wires - you name it.
I have my rear speakers running along the walls, however all my fronts and XB1, ps3, X360, cable boxes, PC etc are just a mess.
What products can i buy to help with this?
How do you keep them all running together and neat?
Can you give any links to units i can use to help sort this out?
I obviously have all the cables already, i just dont have anything to keep them together and neat. Thanks.

I'm loving the stark differences between people set-ups. One is really clean while othert just don't give a fuck and put things however they like it/what's practical, and everything in between.
For cable management I use velcro. You can buy a roll of a couple of meters for a few bucks. So you'll get something like this

Velcro ftw. I bought a 100 pack of strips from amazon for around $7. I also recommend flat ethernet cables if anyone is going with wired setups. Its much easier to work with and takes up alot less space.
You're a wizard!
I also hide away most my games. If I display anything I make a theme out of it. Like fighting games and my samurai movie collection.
