Nice idea to use server racking, could come together very nicely. Is it to be on display or hidden away? Racking might look a bit odd with mismatched components? Ie lots of blank space?

It will be on the main wall filled with AV Stuff etc..

If I keep things balanced it will look fine.

I can use blanking plates if I need to, But I'm sure I won't have trouble filling it.

Its not server Racking BTW.

Its studio racking built to my spec.

I can't link you to it as it could be classed as a competitor but one of the big broadcast suppliers sells a rack mount wine rack and a rackmount fridge.

Now thats a good idea!

If your name is Charlize Theron and you look like this then yeah

Looking good.

Couple of things. Darker colours will give better results on the pj.

What size screen are you getting?

92"

I think I'm going for dark grey for the main wall with lghts grey for the others

Warbie · 18 Jan 2009 at 15:47

Maybe with black material on screen wall and side walls/ceiling coming out for a meter or two? The picture would pop right out

Can I suggest bigger? 92" will get 'normal' very quickly IMO. You can build a fixed screen and hide it with curtains. Maybe not have a TV at all as it's a special room.

It was £1.89 delivered for the screen.

I'll see how I get on.

I may look into building my own at some point...

As requested.

Enlarged Projector
Added Colour Sceme (Cream looks abit pinkish soz)

That is nigh on identical to how my home cinema looked untill recently (check out Crown's 'tailored' brown from their dark elegance series for something that looks really swish). It had a dark brown feature/screen wall, cream walls, and grey ceiling and, imo, looked great

easyrider · 19 Jan 2009 at 21:26

Does look good.

I have been having a look over some colour guides and was 99% sure of getting

Dulux Urban Obsession (Dark Grey) for the feature/screen wall and Grey Steel 2(light Grey) for the side walls.

Not sure my side lighting and Silver LEDS will go with brown or cream?

WantoN · 19 Jan 2009 at 21:59

Don't think they'd go with brown (shame I love it

). Cream wouldn't be an issue. Flint grays could look great.

So jealous

Can you not change the bulbs in the LED lights then?

Not really,

Plus the surrounds are Silver

easyrider · 19 Jan 2009 at 22:20

With Grey I'm not limited to having Brown Chairs etc...

I want a Black leather recilner definitely

What colour are the lights now then? I imagined they would some kind of light purple or violet colour? Are they on a dimmer switch?

EDIT: Thought about an infra-red dimmer switch for your LED and normal lights in general? It would mean you could use your universal remote to automatically dim the lights at the same time you hit play? :-)

(Although its probably a little too late for this now!)
