    That touchscreen thing is the shizzle, good work. Is it a fanny on organising the pictures and titles correctly like on an ipod touch/iPhone.

      That seems a bit inconvenient, having to walk over to the screen to use it. Wouldn't it be easier to use an iPod touch or a WinMo PDA to control music over WiFi?

        Awesome set-up but who the hell gives Bullet Proof monk 4 / 5 Stars?

          Not my setup, but some mother treated her son:

Which, combined, gives her son a 100-inch screen to game on. Directly above his bed.
          The thought of sleeping under that thing would be terrifying! They also got the angle of the TV all wrong.

              The cuddly Spiderman and frog top it off!

                lol @ Spatial.

                Also, I wonder if the use of mirrors causes much lag?*




                *I'm kidding.

                  My new minimalist AV Room.
                  46" 1080p Samsung
                  Yamaha Amp, TDL Nucleus 2 Front Speakers, a Morduant Short Centre speaker (hidden behind TV) and Tannoy sub and rear speakers (quite a way back) and a pair of Sennheiser HD595s tucked in behind the TV. I pull that chair to the right into the middle for gaming and solo movie watching. A single Playstation 3 provides all our audio, video and gaming. The drawers on the sides of the unit house all the PS3 games and the CD racks have our CDs, DVDs and Blu-Rays. There's a guitar and amp to the left. It's simple but I don't have time to even play all the PS3 games that I want to so having any more consoles is a bit pointless. The hardest part was abandoning my Vinyl but overall I find this to be a most pleasant setup now!

                    I've been meaning to post in this thread for aaaages, and I've been spurred into action because I'm moving house.

                    You won't believe what the house was like before I bought it. I've just done a load of before/after pics if anybody's interested.

                    I made an agreement with my wife to keep it tasteful and keep cables and cases to a minimum on display.


                    The cupboard was made by a local company because everything we looked at in shops (IKEA etc.) was too wide or narrow. It sits on top of the skirting and it's fake skirting at the front which hides the 360 power adaptor and powersurge block.

                    I might look like a big spender, but I only bought the telly (saved for ages) and the 360 (first ever launch-day console purchase). The Wii is borrowed from my Wife's school over the summer hols and I won the laptop, PS3 and DVD/HDD recorder!


                    The cupboard hides various game, DVD, CD cases, the router and peripherals in IKEA boxes.






                    I managed to get some tat on the shelves including Hobby Japan, Godzilla Chronicles, Robot Chronicles and Transformers books from hobbylinkjapan.com. The models are King Kong (proposed to my wife at the top of the Empire State), Godzilla from Vs. Space Godzilla (visited Fukuoka Tower when i went to Japan), Transformers Myclones and a Gundam kit my wife bought me for Christmas (and took all the way to Florida for me to open on Christmas day!).

                    Hope you guys like my setup

                      Good work on hiding all the cables. What's that giant mecha-ape that's your avatar and wallpaper on the TV?

                        Ha ha, thanks!

                        It's Mecha Kong from Toho's King Kong Escapes!

                          Does your launch-day 360 still work?! Amazing!

                            @ fullspecwarrior.

                            if you are albe to slide the tv back or the speakers forward, so the panel is behind the face of the speakers, you should notice an improvment in sound as the panel wont be acting as a giant passive radiator.

                              "radiator" - what's that all about then? heat or sound? Why? etc. Always interested in ideas about best sound.

                                My launch-day 360 died once since I had it and got it repaired under warranty and they put bigger heatsinks in.

                                It died again for a second time about 2 months back. Other forumites suggested I repair it myself as Microsoft wanted to charge about £30 less to repair it than buy a brand new one!

                                Fixed it for less than a fiver and it's been running like a charm ever since!
                                Not sure how long it'll last for, but I'm very pleased it's back from the dead.
