Really? I've seen some comparison pics and was surprised how small it was. I was expecting it to be a lot bigger!

Nice equipment Mentok. You’ll get a much improved movie and PS3 experience once you get your Sharp LC-37D90U next month!

Btw, I also love the labelling!

My HT is the very definition of 'budget'.

Advent HT3061A 30" Widescreen HDTV
Phillips DVP642 Progressive Scan DVD Player
RCA RT2380BK 5.1 Surround System
Modded XBox with XBMC installed
XBox 360 with HD-DVD add-on

A picture isn't necessary (and embarassing). This is about as ghetto as home theater gets.

Love the home made screen vooswing!

Quick question, how have you hid the cabling for the pj? I want to get one at some point but have got no idea what I'll do with the component/hdmi cable and PSU cable!

I got crown molding and ran it up the corner and across the ceiling. I just put the HDMI cable and Component cables in the gap behind it. I also have cable molding that runs along the baseboards from the audio stand in the front to the back of the room. I still haven't figured out how to hide the cable completely though, my projector hangs about 10" from the ceiling, to avoid a ceiling fan, and the cables are visible from the crown molding to the shelf. Not bad though. From the angle I took the picture you can see the molding but the cables are blocked by the shelf.

Sneaky. We recently had some crown molding put in and I didn't have the foresight to sneak any cable behind it.

Cool

My living room is kinda dirty...so, I couldn't get better pics. During this little exercise I realized how hard it is to get a good pic of my TV while playing an HDDVD...or anything for that matter. Maybe once my girlfriend cleans...Ill get a little more in depth. hehe

Living room to den :


Blazing Saddles...Great movie!


Scene from "Hulk"


My current inventory...

Some more media, the main DVD shelves:



Finally, the computer -- Core 2 Duo MacBook + 23" ACD + Wireless Keyboard and Mouse
