The Simplest Cleanest Lounge-Friendly SetUp?

[skk3]

Hi All,

I have been in my current house for two years now and the layout of the lounge has facilitated a very simple setup utilising a Yamaha YSP-600 Soundbar which works surprisingly well. The real find was the AV Stand which looks gorgeous, even just as a piece of furniture. All in all, very clean and very simple...

That is a well-made and nice-looking stand. Goes well with the nest of tables.

Thank you for your comments.

The stand came from Chris Sharp Cabinets of Lincoln and cost just under £400.00. The unit comes ready assembled and is delivered in a zip up wallet!

And yes, the nest of tables came from the same place too. I am planning to get a sideboard and dining table very soon.

I have been to the factory shop as well and was in vited onto the factory floor for a look round.

Thanks for your comments both items are from Chris Sharp cabinets - see link above...

Looks nice.

But if you are asking a question the simplest and cleanest are usually wall mounted TVs with the av equipment locked away in a discrete cabinet and out of sight.

A very nice looking room, everything matches and looks brand new

How do you rate the YSP600, Im thinking of buying one soon and would appreciate your comments.

Cheers

Neat set-up. Do your components actually work? Where are the messy cables
Am I the only one to have messy cables?

Sorry for the lateness of my reply.

The YSP600 is great in very respect except rear speaker effects, it is a bit weak here. The sound is meaty, detailed and smooth (typical Yamaha). You can get them from Digital Direct - Cheap TVs, TV, Televisions, LCD TV, Plasma TV, HD Ready TV, Blu Ray Players, Home Cinema Systems for £299.00.

Yes, everything is brand new, including £2500.00 worth of G-Plan sofa. Hence the modest av setup!

Yes actually !

They are plugged into a Lindy mains conditioner that I paid £29.99 for (see WhatHiFi review). Also, there are cable ties running down the back of the av stand, which is a star buy in my opinion...

Also, the angle of the picture helps - thank you for you comments.

Very nice AV stand.

I bought myself a Chris Sharp cabinet a few months ago and I've been very happy with it. Build quality is fantastic, as for that leaf detail... A nice touch I think. Is yours from the Citrus Oak range? Mine is the low cabinet.

I have to say it was a bit sacreligious but the first thing I did was to cut two bloody big holes in the back to allow ventalation and cables to pass through lol.

I never went to visit the show room as I live too far south, the lovely lady I spoke to there was able to send me some photos of the cabinet in the show room so I took the plunge

Very nice set up!

I was advised to get the citrus oak finish, probably by the lady you spoke to - her name is Christine I think and she is one of the Directors of CSC.

i like the neatness of this setup - have you a sub wired into your soundbar, or can there be one added to it?

No sub yet, but one can be added, such as a B&W 608 in light oak to match my furniture and av stand.
