Jordan_E Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 What are you using for the screen? Size? Looks like a cool enough Man Cave to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foogledricks Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 That is exactly what I expect everyone on this forum's HT to be like. Cluttered with years of movies and games still in shrinkwrap, accessories everywhere, all compressed in a space that has no business having all that stuff. Thumbs up! I hope to show off my man cave in a couple weeks. It is not done yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan_E Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Oh yeah! Behind my Berkline chairs is a collection of loose discs, boxes, and tossed aside shrinkwrap. Dang, I need to go up there and clean up a bit before people come over for the game tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutter Posted January 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 What are you using for the screen? Size? Looks like a cool enough Man Cave to me. It's actually a piece of siding for a house that came highly recommended on AVS forum. Made out of a PVC-type material and handles contrast quite nicely. Camera made some weird effects, but the screen is definitely watchable with lights in the room full-on. (and with my girlfriend being an active reader, this comes in handy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberwoo Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 (and with my girlfriend being an active reader, this comes in handy) I thought you said this is a man cave? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutter Posted January 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I thought you said this is a man cave? I think everyone with a SO knows that no room in your place can be completely your own... pics of her own (embarrassing chick flick) DVD collection on the other wall is not pictured.

Cyberwoo Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I think everyone with a SO knows that no room in your place can be completely your own The man gets the garage and the woman gets pretty much everything else. Thats usually how it goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan_E Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Actually, my HT is pretty much strictly my own space. Sure, we'll watch a family movie in there, but otherwise it's all mine. After 11 years of marriage, and 17 years together, we know each other's personal space. And that screen material looks very nice. Sturdy looking stuff.

Lutter Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Well it seems the theater is getting an upgrade much sooner than I thought. I just purchased a Mitsubishi 4900U 1080p Projector. Can't beat $1879 base price (price match with ProjectorUSA.com) -$100 coupon (PLAYOFF100) -$500 mail in rebate (from Mitsubishi USA) = $1279 SHIPPED from http://www.projectorpeople.com By the way, if anyone is looking for a great 720p projector for ambient light situations, I've got my InFocus SP5000 on eBAY right now. The women LOVE it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320210535037 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foogledricks Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Wholly crap. A black projector. I've been thinking of spray painting mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutter Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 As you might see from the picture of my equipment rack, the color of electronics doesn't matter to me... I just grab the one with the lowest price (for instance, the silver version of the Onkyo 605 was $50 less than the black. Go figure. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCREWNUT Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 wow Lutter! Awesome man cave! Freaking sweet equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMonkey Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 No pics of the anime collection?! I know you used to buy a lot of discs (from the old HTF anime thread) but my wife's mega-shelf of anime is still kinda crazy sized IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutter Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Ya know, I used to have around 250 anime discs but I've paired that down to around 75-100 (mostly completed series). It takes up about 2 shelves on the back rack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
