No HTPC yet - I'm still working on it.
Gear:
Panasonic Viera TH-50PX85U
Middle Atlantic BRK16 Rack
Middle Atlantic GD16 Glass Door
Middle Atlantic U2 shelves (+ 1 U1 shelf)
Furman PL-8 Series II Power Conditioner
Oppo DV-980H DVD Player - For SACD, CD and DVD Playback
Sony PlayStation 3 80GB - Blu-ray
TiVo HD w/ Seagate Barracuda ES.2 1TB (For OTA HD - CBS, ABC, Fox, NBC and CW)
DirecTV HD DVR HR21-200 (For HD Cable - USA, FX, TNT, AE, TLC, HBO, SHO, etc)
Harman Kardon AVR-247
Speakers:
L&R: JBL HT4V THX Vertical Reference
Center: JBL HT4H
RR&RL: JBL L830
Sub: Infinity PS-12
IXOS Cable to L, C, R and Sub. Cables by MonoPrice (HDMI, CAT5, Optical, Coaxial S/PDIF).
The first few pictures are of the re-wiring of the rack. I had put in a PS3 and a DirecTV DVR in the last 10 days so I needed to add in some cables, re-arranged some stuff. I ran out of HDMI on my TV and the PS3 should suffice for DVD playback. I can run the PS3 and Oppo through the AVR-247 HDMI switching if I need it for DVD playback frequently.
And yes, it's unfinished. I would but we're moving to a new place soon (or I might move out). But for what it's worth - I don't really notice the walls when I'm watching a TV and the lights are off.
Before the re-wire
Top two - Furman PL-8 Series II & Oppo DV-980H - Before re-wire
Oppo DV-980H, PlayStation 3, DirecTV HD DVR - Before re-wire
DirecTV HD DVR and TiVo HD - Before re-wire
Mess of cables
More cables
Back with very little plugged in.
Re-wire is finished! It took me two hours (had to run some cable from the other side of the basement).
Looking straight on.
PlayStation 3 - Yes, it is a bit dusty - I'll wipe if off once I post this thread.
Furman PL-8 Series II & Oppo DV-980H (CD & SACD Playback)
TiVo HD w/ 1TB Seagate Barracuda ES.2
DirecTV HD DVR HR21-200
Bottom of TiVo HD & DirecTV HD DVR (HR21-200)
Both Coaxial and Optical inputs are used.
Bundle of cables coming out the back. 3CAT 5, 3 RG6 and power.
Front door open.
Door removed.
Gotta love the black curtains.
Another view.
The back - JBL L830 for rear right and left.
Finished.
And the handy IKEA Rania tray for the remotes.
