    Default 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..

    That looks like a very professional job, very neat.

    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?

    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.
