My Condo Setup

fk00gsr · 24-09-2009, 12:34 AM

Hello I have been lurking around on this site and have to say it has really given me a lot of inspiration to do my own setup. I finally saved up enough money and bought my first place. Here are some pics of what Ive been able to do so far. Feel free to comment positive or negative. Any and all suggestions are welcome. And on to my KIT setup which I actually dont know what KIT stands for = )

K.I.T.
Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ700U
Pioneer Elite VSX-21
Klipsch F2 (Fronts)
Klipsch C2 (Center)
Klipsch S2 (Rears)
JBL PB12
Sony PS3
Nintendo Wii
Scientific Atlanta Cable Box
Logitech Harmony One Remote
Logitech PS3 Adapter
Dell Inspiron 518 Desktop
Logitech MX Revolution Mouse
Logitech diNovo Keyboard
Altech Lansing 5.1 System (Only using 2.1 for now)

I think that bedroom looks very very nice, and the lounge room is certainly a nice place to lay back, relax and watch Dark Night ( or in your case pirates )

Working for the Imperials must pay well. Nice barracks they provide too

Beautiful set up! Where did you get your TV Unit from?

fk00gsr · 24-09-2009, 12:33 PM

Thanks you so much for all the comments!!! It really makes all the hard work worth it in the end = ) I may have to borrow my brothers Canon SLR camera so I can take a few better pics.

Ninja - Thats great! Im sure you had a blast wearing it at work haha. Im looking to get me a Darth Vader Helmet next to put on the other side of the unit. You cant really see them well in the picture but above the helmet is Luke's Lightsaber from Return of the Jedi and across from it is Vader's Lightsaber from A New Hope. Yes Im a Star Wars geek

Bob - pretty much got all my lighting from Ikea.

Konsoul - I purchased my unit from a place called Ashley Furniture here in the states.

Beautiful place you've got - very stylish. I couldn't help but notice your CISA qualification - I've got that too. Falling behind in my CPD as we speak...

amazing

Dubliner1 · 24-09-2009, 6:11 PM

very nice- the backsplash in the kitchen is great- I love the brick effect- did you install it (if so, can you tell me where you got it?) or did it come like that?
hey man, get rid of the bedroom mirror and put up a 60" Pioneer Kuro there!!

Chazaxl · 24-09-2009, 7:50 PM

I dont often comment but nice - love the colours / feel of the place.

Thanks a lot! Sorry but the backsplash was standard when they built the place. If you are really interested I can see if I have the build specs somewhere which may list it.

haha yeah i was thinking about it. I recently broke up with the girlfriend and im 26 so this technically is my bachelor pad now and having a 60 inch in the bedroom is some serious kudos

that is a very nice home cinema setup you have it looks very slick loving it well done.

Frank Smith · 24-09-2009, 9:15 PM

Nice colour scheme, love the sycronisation. What colour is that in the second picture and did you come up with it yourself?

It is called Brick by Ralph Lauren The type of paint is River Rock while the tan is Suede also from Ralph Lauren. I had some help with the colors in the living room. I knew I wanted to go with a warm feel and I loved the look of the tan and decided to go with an orange/brick color for the accent wall.

Thanks. I plan to redecorate my room but I am not sold on a color scheme.

I had it in my head that I will go with a modern black and white look as I have a black sofa, setup and a few black and white art. Part of me feels I will bore of it very quickly and I love the look you have. However, being 20 and living with my mum, I don't want to (nor should I really) invest too much. All I am looking to do is the walls really and add a bit of furniture.

Any suggestions?

no worries about the info- I can Google it. Yeah since you are single it has to be the ultimate man cave- 60" in the bedroom and the mirror on the ceiling above the bed!

Just added the Logitech Harmony One and PS3 Adapter to the setup. I am absolutely loving it!!!
