I still live with my parents while I'm going to school (Sophomore in College), so I'm alotted this 10' x 9' space, and I've done what I can with it. (Sorry for the picture quality, cell phone)

What's shown:

42" 720p Plasma
Modem
Linksys Etherfast Router
Xbox 360
PS3
Wii

On the right there's the space for a Roku Netflix Player. I plan on buying this, which will cause me to take out the top shelf, stand all three consoles vertically in the middle and put the receiver on the bottom. Each console has wired internet access, the Roku player will too.

From the side


I'll try to get some better pictures in the next couple of days.

I said I would post better quality pictures if I could, and I added an HTiB, so here are the updated pics. Not bad for a college student, I think.




Shown:
  • 42" Vizio (Plasma)
  • Modem
  • Router
  • Xbox 360
  • Onkyo HT-S3100 (Reciever is an Onkyo HT R340)
  • PS3
  • Wii
  • Roku Netflix Player
considering getting an Apple TV or a DS-A2X.

I don't think wall mounts are ever received well in this thread.

To be fair, not all of them were that great (One guy put it above his fireplace?)

I chose specifically not to wall mount because I knew I'd either screw it up, or want to rearrange my room later. Sure enough, I rearranged last week. (Plus I live with my parents :awesome: )

EDIT: If it were lowered like 2.5 feet, it would look sweet (and he should mount the speakers too)

The wires don't look too bad compared to some of the stuff here. Nice setup.

Is the picture of the cable box install an inside joke or something? I don't need to tell you what you'd be doing if you worked on my crew.

You have a "crew"? How do I get a job installing A/V stuff in people's living rooms?

Because i live with my parents :smithicide: (i tried to live on campus this year and i didnt get in, but i live 15 minutes away from the college so i said gently caress it i'll just live at home)

High five. My case is more like I can't afford to live on campus ($7000 for dorms alone, so I can share a bathroom with an entire floor? Sign me up!)

Good to know I'm not the only lives-at-home-but-has-a-home-of-his-own TV setup.
