My kitchen diner install

The missus just spent a fortune on a new kitchen, floor, fireplace etc. so my stipulation was a tv.

I already have an HS50 and 2 436-XDE's so I did not go crazy with this tv. I have bought a sd Sharp Aquos from Richer Sounds for £750.

I am going to run it all of one of the 436's via a js-technology rgb splitter which is in the next room (hence the hole going in to the next room)

I chased the walls out last weekend and I was amazed at how much dust that came out. I think I broke the hoover by having the missus standing next to me while I used the grinder hoovering it up.

Next stop is the fireplace which is going in a week tomorrow.

Cheers,

Not really a photographer, the camera is a 5mp but this was taken on low quality to save bandwidth.

Protect all that AV equipment mate, there will be lots of dust.
Make sure they issue you with an installation certificate.

After my go with the grinder I am well prepared. However as nearly everything is being ripped out and I am getting new floors etc.. I am not that fussed.

Fireplace is in, my photography skills do not really show it off that well. The inside looks like it is all hollow and does not show the inserts.

Electrician is in Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I should of had that done before the fireplace as I am going to be really paranoid about him marking it.

Lots of bubble wrap going on it tomorrow.

I can see this becoming a very nice place to sit and have a meal.
Keep us updated Russell.
