[tinman related] Post your A/V set up, once and for all

Ok I finally got the 46 Sharp that I picked up on Black Friday mounted on the wall. My setup looks a little ghetto now, but it should look a lot better once I pick up a black cabinet to hold my components.

I also wanted to see if anyone has any ideas for where to put my speakers. I want to get them off of those stands, because they just look cheap. Should I just mount them on the wall on each side of the TV? Maybe get a larger center channel and mount it above the TV?

 

is that a sanus stand?

 

I'm not sure. I bought it at Best Buy right after my ex wife ran off with all of my crap so it's been several years.

 

I like the golden deer sitting down, it adds character..

 

try petite abeille on west broadway, about a block north of chambers, great belgian bistro, and they have probably 50 belgian beers on the menu.

Can someone steer me toward some setting suggestions for a Philips model no. 42PFP5332D?

I googled and got some avs forums results but the links didn't work.

No I already have it.

 

Hey Harrisment- nice paint tone on the wall. Meshes with that dark flooring. Might have to go gray myself.

On another note- Amazon is having some amazing deals on Samsung's today.
For example http://dealnews.com/Samsung-46-1080...-100-at-NFLShop-for-1-519-shipped/201928.html

And if you want a 1080p monster sized screen from the best brand in the biz...

Yeah I'm really glad I went with that color. I was a little hesitant at first about having gray walls, but it looks good with the wood floors like you said.

 

Thanks tinman.

Those are pretty close to what I landed on using the naked eye, but I'll throw them in there and see what happens.
