Where did you get the tv stand/unit from may I ask?

Yeah as Dirtyjester said, its from Ikea was only about £40 too.

[DirtyJester]

Excellent!!

Make sure you check the height of any big size equipment (ie.amp) as this table unit has very limited space, hence me modding mine so I was able to set my Yamaha on the top shelf under the TV.

Watch the temps on your amp mate, last thing you want is shorting the life of it never mind it's height

New house = new setup

Here's an overall shot:

And now the individual sides..

My Side:

The Gfs Side:

The reason for 2 sides is so I can game or watch stuff while she can game or watch what she wants too.

I'm happy with the way it is right now.. was gonna invest in 5.1 but my gf doesn't like noise much and I have a pair of Astro A40's so there isn't really a need

Gear:

2x Samsung 46D800's
2x Peerless Manhattan 1200 Stands
2x Xbox 360's
1x Kinect
1x Sky+ HD
4x Samsung SSG-3100GB Glasses
1x Astro A40 Mixamp.

Lol you should put a line through the rug. very cool, good job.

 

[Nathan]

how odd, lol. looks clean though.

 

[dav3evans]

Wow, never seen a setup like that before. Very nice though =]

 

[Adam]

I like the stands, where did you get those from?

 

[Chandler_90]

They are by a company called Peerless.
Manhattan 1200 stands.

I got them from a website called stand and deliver

Thanks for all the nice comments
It's took ages to get the place like this but all the hard work has been worth it!

 

[coolamasta]

Great setup Chandler! Those Samsung TV's are just awesome!
I just kick my Gf off my TV while I game and give her the laptop on the iPlayer page lol

 

[GinG]

Not sure if I like that setup :/

Could you not have created a 'games' room and had them in there with a single tv for the lounge?

 

[booyaka]

very "different"

a lot of cash to ***** on 2 tv's just to be able to watch your own thing!

 

[londonbairn]

Definately different, though I would have got a 50+ VT30 in the lounge -P) and a smaller LED in another room, plus the PC, so you can split watching. Surely the audio poses a problem?

That's what we do, works well.

 

[dav3evans]

Get a couple of sets of decent wireless headphones and you'll be set =]

 

[Chandler_90]

The whole reason around the 2 TVs is that we can do our own thing but still be in the same room..

In my last relationship I had a different room in which I used to game but I found that having that brick wall in the way really messed up the relationship (combined with other aspects obviously).

As for the sound issue.. The misses doesn't like noise so her tv is normally low and I've got a pair of Astro A40s (wireless)
