    Nice. The Denon does look good from the front, and since you said it's aluminum, I bet that adds a nice 'feel' to it.

    Looks great Steve. I like how the art above the tv mirrors what how your system is set up. How do you like the 8tc's?

    That does remind me... I haven't changed my showcase delie in a really long time. I think I still have that purple guy next to an lsi7 for the showcase title :rolleyes:

    They're great. The artwork, believe it or not, is bedsheet material stretched over plywood---I know...NO I'm not ****. :D

    Wow I just noticed the bad typo's I make when I post when I'm tired :p

    My dad did a similar thing on one of our walls about a year ago. We had nine squares in a weird pattern but they were covered in a cool textured wallpaper and then painted. There were three sets of three different squares. The first set was a single ¾" mdf piece, the second two ¾" stacks and the third three stacks to get an odd depth to the overall look.

    It's a really inexpensive way to make some pretty cool wall hangings. It also helps that wife my is a master at the sewing machine. She sewd curtains for the master bedroom, the leftover material is what you see in the livingroom.

    I had some of leftover 3/4" plywood after finishing my workbench, so we put 2 and 2 together and created the wall hangings.

    Can you do it with a Moose-head blanket for my place in NH? :D
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.
