View Full Version : I might have gotten a bit carried away...

So I posted a couple of photos a while back, since then I’ve moved house and things escalated...

My system combines both 2 channel and 5.1.2 surround in one package that shares my nord power amp and the front speakers but other than that keeps the systems separate for best performance.

Few bits to finish off but almost done.

Hopefully the pics work..

Excellent job on the TV / Centre channel frame. I doubt that will have any integrity issues in the future.

How did you channel the surround speaker wire? Up or under?

Thanks for the feedback guys, this was my first proper DIY project. :)

I managed to run the surround cables under the plaster board/behind the skirting. The two atmos channels in the ceiling are run across to the TV unit and then up and across the ceiling, fortunately the joists run in my favour.

Nice build workmanship, as well as your electronics and speakers. Love the clean look free of wire clutter. Your equipment rack is outstanding too.
My only concern is when you change out your TV. I would have made the opening larger, and trimmed it out to incorporate more tv options.

It will fit any modern 65” TVs as long as they don’t change aspect ratio. There’s more space at the sides to accommodate a flat screen as well.

If I go bigger with will be projection :eyebrows:
