Just picked up my New Samsung 4k SUHD TV.
Is that the 65 inch? I'm currently trying to decide on whether to stick with oled or go with the suhd's when I upgrade in the summer.
No, 48".

iMac 5k and two 27 inch Dell S2715h's. Using Xcode on this thing is great. There is a PS4 hidden behind the monitor on the left.

dang, now I got OLED lust :|
I really would like to use that 55" for a PC monitor, but 1080p at 55" is too low of a resolution at that size, but damn if the colors don't look incredible

Unfortunately, still the same as 2015. I did just take delivery of a Xbox One today, but it's back at my desk for a bit.
My setup has been fairly static for about five years now.
Panny P42X1 plasma, Roku 3, Comcast HD converter box
Dreamcast/Wii U Deluxe, Magnavox DVD player (phasing out), Denon AVR-X2000 (new)
Saturn
Xbox 360 S w/ HD-DVD, (not pictured) PS3 60GB
(slightly pictured) JVC 5.1 system, DD-WRT WRT54G for repeater bridge purposes
In the cabinet are the Blus and HDs, and games for all systems
I am in the process of designing a whole new living room from scratch. I haven't decided if I'll be building the seating, but I'm building all the hardscapes in the room - component storage, media storage, tables, other storage. I am leaning cherry Arts/Crafts or Greene & Greene for the seating, and high-gloss white Shaker-style cabinets for the components. In fact I am taking measurements tonight to load into Sketchup this week. Wife and I are going back and forth over what we like - she would like everything hidden, I am advocating some stuff out for airflow purposes.
Something I've been struggling with is a way to neatly charge the controllers and store the accessories. I missed out on the low-profile PS3 charger.

I just want to know where you got that beautiful gaming cabinet for your games.

Thanks man. Still waiting for my cook and Becker Sega art and some lamps to make the entertainment center less dark
Will share more close up of the goodies later.
Love this thread.
My main gaming spaces (living room, bedroom) are nothing special, but we just got finished redoing our office. Yet again, nothing too special, but we love it thus far. Far side is mine, which will likely change soon if I end up actually building the new PC that I'm considering.

This is magnificent and I adore the VF5 and Sega love.
Tons of awesome stuff like the Bayo 2 OST and VO4 Memorial Box spotted as well.
Thanks! When we first saw the picture of her when she was in the shelter, and she had a little mustache, we knew that we had to adopt her. Best choice ever.

Awesome.

My small setup:: I've got 2 small children and 1 large tv so its a case of as much power as I can, but hidden from tiny hands! Also really like the DIY approach so there's lots of homebrew Vesa mounts and knocked together cases:
42" LCD, PS4 and, eughhh, shitty cablebox
Then hidden behind the TV: My gaming PC (4690k, GTX 970) and a 2012 Mac Mini which acts as a quiet, low power HTPC
Then my recent addition, 3TB media server running off a raspberry pi b+, in a childrens shoebox, all squared away under the stairs. Probably the cheapest thing I've put together but also one of the most fun things I've done!
You cant really see it but the Pi and HDDs are sitting on a rack made of Lego. It's not just for kids!

I love it! How do you use the Raspberry? Do you use Plex on your PS4, or just stream through your computer?

Pi is set up as an SMB share, so I have Kodi running on the Mac Mini behind the TV and also on my Laptop and various tablets. They all access it as a windows network share, nice and simple. That way I can manage it entirely from any windows computer and it remains fully headless. It's connected using Powerline plugs as well, so its much quicker streaming overall.

Nice setup! Where's your office chair from? It looks comfortable.
Very nice and clean setup, I like it. But I have to ask, 1) where are all the consoles? 2) WHY THE TV IS NOT CENTERED? /OCD
Ha the Playstation is hidden in the white media console. And the enormous cable box won't fit in there so I had to put it on top. Once I get some new cables, I'll put it down in the empty space on the left and center the TV!

Thank you. Still working on it a bit with some art and other accessories.
The chair is from Scandinavian Designs.
Such a sharp eye for treasures
and glad to see the passion recognized. Will do a close up on the OST and other rarities soon.

Has been a while since posting my setup, moved in the meantime so here is my new place.
First of all excuse the poor quality of the desk shot, took that with my mobile and well, didn't tidy up. Whatever.
I do game primarily at my desk but i have my PC hooked up to my 60" TV as well.
In case anyone is wondering why my center channel is placed so low, that actually is my subwoofer.

Well, because it just sits there for charging anyway and my splitter is right behind the right speaker. It was the most logical and practical place to put it. (It got no wires you know)
Is something wrong with that? You can't imagine how confused i am by that question.
I'm in germany if that matters, i think most americans have them hanging on the kitchen wall or some other weird place no? Lol

I didn't even notice a phone until you mentioned it, looks like it fits in perfectly to me.
Awesome thanks. Might consider two of those instead of ultra wide.
What keyboard are you using? kinda looks like a K830
SinSilla
Member
The k830 and similar wireless Keyboards bend like crazy just lifting them up. Was too flimsy for me because the keyboard is in reach of my daughter. Its a Rapoo E9090p with Aluminium body.
Has its own flaws though, like high frequency noise during charging and it sometimes misses keystrokes. I like it overall.
I love your setup SinSilla. I've been eyeing a Malm desk in white for my home office for a while but I think your picture seals the deal and I might grab one this month. Went onto the Ikea website today and they have a sale starting next week, so I might wait and see then.

You can say what you want about Ikea furniture, but the malm series is a great affordable series. Me and my wife left Ikea that day with 350kg of furniture (you can See some of the other malm stuff on the second pic). The memory alone hurts my back.
I always end up liking desks from Ikea, but the closest one to me is north of Austin which would make it roughly a 6 hour drive for me. And their online shipping is stupid expensive.
Soon, I'll be participating in this thread for the first time!
Just upgraded to a Sony 55" W800B TV, and this morning I pulled the trigger on a Denon S700W receiver... Now I'm just waiting to find a sub-$200 set of Monoprice 10565 5.1 speakers. A few months ago, I got an Ikea Lappland entertainment center, and within the month, I'll be buying a matching Kallax 3-column shelf to go right beside it.
Here's a bad phone pic of the current entertainment center set-up with the TV unmounted and no external speakers:
Laundry list of what to come (hopefully) within the month:
Ikea Kallax 3 column shlef
Denon AVR-S700W A/V receiver
Monoprice 10565 5.1 speakers
Furman 15 amp power conditioner
(Wii U?)

I don't have a picture of my main entertainment center but here is my computer desk that I purchased and built recently along with my gaming PC and a bunch of gaming memorabilia:

As others have requested, still love to see how all your controllers, chargers and other accessories are stored on a regular basis. Not really a big deal if you only have a controller per system, but when you have 3-4 per system, plus all the assorted other stuff.
I'm making a cabinet to hold everything, and I'm trying to find the best solution to charging right now. The quad chargers seem the best option, but Xbox ones are harder to find.
