Plasma on the wall !! Pictures

Well I guess it's my time now to hopefully inspire some of you with my setup. I have many times visited this forum in seek of inspiration before I started my project.
As I can se it has been a quite simple project from my part compared to some of the "big" once in here... but anyways here we go... hopefully you like

The first picture is of my setup almost finnished running a THX Demonstration DVD ...
really nice on my Pioneer VSX-915 with 7.1 speakers.

During construction... made a hole in the wall to get all speaker and power cables on the other side of the wall....

Now I'm only missing the center speaker...
have a "loaner" on the floor but the idea is to get the center above the screen...
(it's the same design as the left and right)

Here you can se the menu of the THX Demonstration DVD ...
a must for all hometheater/TV/Plasma nerds....

So that was my setup.... hope I could inspire at least one of you ...
and let's hope people will keep posting those fantastik pictures and build projects here.

Cheers.

Well probably.. but it shouldn't be more than a week or two until I get my "real" center speaker that I have ordered.... still late with the delivery and therefore I haven't made a big issue regarding the center. And the new one I will put above the plasma...
