Finally finished my quasi home theater! Actually nearly everything was finished except the paint and posters which were done in the past few weeks.

Specs:
  • Polk Monitor 70 fronts
  • Polk PSW 505 Subwoofer

How do you like both of these? I was thinking about getting them for a 2.1 simple system for mainly music and occasionally movies.

Living like poo poo in my new apartment (will get to tidying cables up eventually):




Really need a center speaker for dialog when playing certain shows/movies.

Hello fellow Ashley sectional buddy! I have that couch in my living room. Its held up well after 1.5 years. It smelled off when we first got it though. That went away within a couple weeks.

It's one comfy couch. I slept on it for a week straight after it arrived.

Mine never smelled though.

How much is that couch? I've been looking for something that looks liek that, too bad its probably not on amazon

I bought mine June 2012 and i want to say it was $900 but if you buy it when they do their holiday sales it'll be closer to $7-800.

On a side note, the sectional vouch is kind of a waste for that room. If you haven't purchased one yet, I would go for a normal couch, possibly with recliners.

Or a chaise! I love being able to lay back on mine while watching TV/movies.

e: My chaise and setup. I've probably posted it here before but heck why not again!

What TV stand is that?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001523EGY/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

They make a black version too if the Espresso color doesn't match your setup. Sadly it looks like Amazon doesn't carry it anymore, so you'll have to find it elsewhere.

e: There's also one that comes with a TV mount: http://www.amazon.com/OmniMount-Echo-50FP-50-Inch-Espresso/dp/B001GVIM9I/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

What is the technique in the second photo called? In other words, I want to do this and need to know what to google.

I believe you are looking for "stained concrete."

I also have an ashley sectional. I've owned it about 4 years and it's held up very very well. Bang for the buck they're a great buy, And when I get home from work and relax on it, I pretty much instantly get tired.

People give Ashley a lot of poo poo but I too bought a sectional from them in 2012. I slept on it for a week straight after buying it because it was so comfy, and it's still going strong.

I think $800 for Memorial Day sale. They had a matching (round) ottoman/chair-thing for like $200 too.

tbh putting the center speaker literally IN a fireplace is worse than mounting a tv above the fireplace

Why is the TV up so high? Looks weird imo.

I’ve been looking for a giant bean bag like that - though not filled with beans. What brand is that, and would you buy it again?

Also someone’s definitely getting hosed in there with porn at full volume.
