Home Theater to the Max

Ok so one of my "move-in" toys to myself was a full home theater system. Now I already owned the Yamaha 7.1 speaker/receiver system but needed to spice it up a bit. So I decided to add a HD DLP projector to my home movie-watching experience!

The first step was to wire the entire family room for 7.1 sound (speaker wires). This wasn't too challenging due to the ranch style home I own. My family room also has a built in the wall bookshelf where I decided to use one shelves to house my receiver and DVD player - this way I can have less clutter in the room.

Next was to install the satellite speakers (front and rear) in the corners of the room with ceiling-based speaker mountings.

Once I connected the whole system I couldn't be more impressed! I am not much of a cable-TV watcher but I cant get enough of movies.
