Can do yamj & better chipset, however, if real media file is your priority, AC ryan still rocks. Alternatively, look at popcornhour instead of Dune HD :notti: :notti: Im considering whether to switch to that... :dribble:

We still need a lcd tv for our studyroom, to be used for gaming & occasional viewing of dramas & movies.

Went to Best Denki@Taka, the sales manager remembered I had gotten 65" from him. Asked him for 42" range, told me panasonic on promotion again :notti::dribble: Went & check it out, it was plasma, we thought of getting LED :unsure: , so we went for a shootout on various models we had KIV, found LED too bright, felt plasma more comforting to our eyes. Note: As gamer tends to game long hours, might not be good for your eyes, especially gamer tends to sit near to TV ya? ;)

So we went for Panasonic plasma TV. Price was below 1k(all those we liked, above 1.4k), dual purposes(gaming & drama/movie), for drama/movie(panasonic well known for their plasma technology), more freebies from the sales manager :notti:

Save our time to go IT show this weekend, sure packed like mad :bleah: might as well research & look for good deals on 16 ports gigabit switch for my home networking integrated throughout the house.

overall is good but the divider holding the disc kind of loose, so the disc might give way etc. I think I need to enhance it by pasting a rubber grip on it to create friction against the base. Material wise, similar like Ikea style, nothing to shout but served the intended purpose.

I probably will buy this and spray paint matt white to fit into my theme. Do you think I can put books (paperback size) in it? Maybe get 1 more for my story books. :sport-smiley-004:

Paperback books are fine. 2nd level of the rack, right corner, able to fit in compilation music album in it. :thumbs up: Point to note, the material parts in black are wood. Im tempted to buy another though.... :dribble:

Love the white speakers :dribble:

Without coverup

A3A8F8F4-294A-4FD4-BA72-01E2CAB3428E-7948-0000080C2411F181.jpg

With coverup, if kids are running around, they cant pop them

Realised that speaker stands are required for my rear surround. Ordered from the speaker vendor last sat, stay tune. It is white in colour. :dancingqueen: Hope it turned out as gd as the speakers :sport-smiley-004:

Looking for hifi rack, anyone got any recommendations? Something like that but in white/black colour?

If no, prob got to custom make it

Nice! We are having the same HT setup (white RX6 with radius 90HD with stand) but only a smaller TV (55" instead of 65" VT50)...still deciding on AV...how's your Onkyo performing and mind to share the cost? FYI I can only enjoy all these after my house renovation (starting this month) completed in early December :(

How is the salt n pepper set? I'm interested in that.. :dribble:

I had linked up all my rooms with cat6 networking, each room with 2 ports. Must leave some spare around. Plus my studyroom, I need to house my NAS too, I got 2 pcs of 5 bays & 4 bays. :dancingqueen:

Beside that, my studyroom's tv console right beside the server station. Need to hook up my tv with internet access, ps3, media player etc. It is either 8 or 16 ports. Cant find 12 ports, even there is, i'm left with 1-2 vacant ports only. :bleah: :bleah:

I will post pic over the wkend. The salt & pepper set is good :dribble: :dribble: the dual function of openings are great to have it. :good: In fact, I liked the cotton holder :thumbs up:

Went to LHS yesterday to get my cat6 cables crimped for all areas & devices. 24pcs with no spare :o

Cool, did you bought the RX Center too? Best to go for same brand & series for whole sound tone purposes. Go for bigger screen IF your budget allows. :) My view is, if you can afford it now, buy now than upgrade later, it does not make sense to upgrade to big size tv less those in our master bedroom or studyroom, we buy along the way. :notti: excuses to upgrade

I bought my Onkyo 818 @ $1.5k(black), silver slightly more ex by $50-$80 although I preferred the later. It is chic & classy when I thinks of that now. Gotten black Onkyo 818 to match my Emotiva power amp. :D

Have you consider other brands apart from Onkyo? Spend some times to audition various AVRs since your house will only be ready by Dec. Have a feel of their dimensions, as alot of times, buyers ignored that, had a hard time later to get it slot into your tv console. Remember to cater ample space for ventilation.

Last, Do not rush to buy, buy only when you are able to get it setup. :yamseng:
