    My whole house is a man cave:)
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben

    That's sweet! Is the rug the only room treatment? I'd think the room would be bright as hell without more.

    Can you explain in further detail? There's a large rug in the room but I haven't done anything with acoustic panels or so, if that's what you mean...

    It's making me jealous and unappreciative of what I DO have...which is a living room w/all kinds of sonic challenges...Drat!

    16x9 is the size of my mancave, small but very effective, built for only one purpose...movies.

    Link to other pics...http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/showcase/view.php?userid=17179

    The pics are quite old, maybe someday I'll get them updated. It is tough taking pics in a 100% solid black room though.

    To keep things on course, there are pictures of my super secret bunker(AKA: Man Cave) in the System Showcase, the photos need to be updated though.
