Looks good:smashin: , but get yourself a Harmony remote and ditch the rest!!!:thumbsup:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

will the harmony remote be able to replace the sky remote as well??

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Yeah it will :)

Nice XBox dashboard ;)

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Can't beat the good old Oppli. :thumbsup: I need to think about one of these Harmony thingies as well as I'm faffing around with four remotes just now!

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Nice, what surround sound system have you got there?

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

its a panasonic SC-HT all in 1 job... really good, but its about 5 years old now and beginning to show its age so i think im gonna replace it with a new Samsung HDMI jobby...

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

nice one mooperman. I use a Harmony 555 in me bedroom. you can get em for about 60-70 quid and they control everything perfectly.Go for it!

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Very nice set up mate.:smashin:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Ah, the venerable Oppli:thumbsup: good setup you have there

Do I spot a DJ in the house as well:)

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

the oppli, a modern classic....

yeah i do a bit of DJ'n at weekends......;)

Just to add though, good setup as well briggot!!:thumbsup:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Thanks mate. :smashin:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

What stand you using there matey?

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

its the Oppli from Ikea dude..

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

ahhh...thats what everyone was referring to. Cheers bud :thumbsup:

Lovely setup by the way

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Unfortunately I think they are discontinued now. :thumbsdow

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Very tidy setup :thumbsup: I would agree about getting a multi remote....

Have you been round my house and stole my mug :grin:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

is that sho-nuff in your avatar ?

what a film, i watched it again for the 1st time since i was kid the other night.
Nice set up BTW :smashin:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

ha ha, it certainly is... awesome movie.......

Just to add as well ive since bought a 525 so all those remotes are now hidden away in the draw....:clap:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

You have the same IKEA unit thing as me. :D

Question: Why do you have your left and right speakers so close? If you put them further apart you can hear the difference more easily. The way you have it now is silly. :(

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Yeah the Oppli is a great piece of kit...

I dis-agree about your speaker comments though, i had them on the floor and furthur apart before and it didnt really work to well, i find that since they are ear level and almost a perfect box with my rears they all work a treat.... that being said, i need to upgrade soon (not that it has any bearing on this convo;))

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

just had a look and it seems your right, that sucks cos it surely has to be a best seller, in fact i think there is thread doing the rounds somewhere called "get your oppli's out for the lads!" :thumbsdow

If you have a look at the sellers forums though i have seen a few in there before...:thumbsup:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Nice system dude :thumbsup: looks good.

Check out that gamer score :eek: wish I had the spare time to play :rolleyes: too much going on at the moment, need to make more time for myself.........need to make more time for myself.........need to make more :boring:, s**t have to go, here comes the wife :eek:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

I don't mean insanely far away from your ears, but I would keep at LEAST a meter either side of the TV, and place them at the level they are now, or higher.

If your system is any good (it doesn't look like a pro setup but it should have an option to do this - mine does), you should be able to ajust the distance from the speakers, so the amp will set them slightly louder. For example, my setup has the rear speakers extremely far back, so I have them set quite loud. :)

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

nah it was a fairly medium system when i first bought it years ago, i can adjust the speaker timing and all that kinda stuff, but having had this for years and experimented loads i find this works a treat.... i guess your just gonna have to trust me.... ;)

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

ok ive just moved to a new place and although the flat is similar i have layed it all out very differently so now i'm not sure how to place the speakers...

any input guys??

HERE for a pic and the original post

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Aha, I have that "media bench" too. If you don't mind me asking, what size screen have you got sitting on it? I'm awaiting the arrival of a Panny 42PX700 and was wondering if the bench would be big enough to house it.
Cool set up btw and nice to see a Leicester lad on the boards :thumbsup:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

its a 42" so it fits perfectly so i reckon you will be more than chuffed with it...:thumbsup:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

Nice one Mooperman, now, if only my local dealer would get his stock in so he can cover my order :mad:

Re: Moopermans Setup
 

UPDATE: Have since moved so her is a couple of the new(ish) place...(albeit not a very good one!)
