New entertainment unit
Today we move one step closer to finishing off our A/V system with the purchase of a new entertainment unit. Its a low line unit with enough space to fit in the center speaker, dvd player, HD set top box and A/V receiver.
There are 4 speakers still missing from the final solution, but this was one of the hardest pieces to find. I wanted somthing low and flat to highlight the widescreen tv while still having enough storage space for all the equipment. I’m looking at getting free standing floor speaker boxes for the fronts leaving all of the units space open for other stuff. Then run some cables around the other end of the room to some wall mounted rear speakers.
With the new speakers in place the entire system will be complete, but it’s still a few weeks away until we have the spare cash to afford to grab them. I was going to head to JB today to price the 4 speakers, cables and mounts but ran out of time waiting for this to get delivered then getting all the stuff in it.
We’re very happy with it, and also the fact that the colour matches nearly exactly the other box type thing that was already in the loungroom.
Thanks to Sharkey for the help cutting out the extra holes needed to run all the cabling. If I get a chance I’ll pull the unit out and show off all the cabling and such thats hanging around behind it.
