Before

Nothing to do Holyweek so i decided to make a minor improvement of my HT in my bedroom. Not a major imporvement but i think its better than before, plus i dont have a budget yet for an AV rack so naghanap lang ako sa bahay nang pwede kong gamitin. Im also now using banana plugs for all ends of my wires para mas madali..

Now

Before

Equipments

Diamond 8 Center, soon to be replaced by Polk Audio CSi A6/Panasonic SA-PT75

Yamaha RX-v2600 with DIY Cooling Fan to suck out the heat

PS3 for gaming and playing Lossless music and some supported video, using USB external (Ill have an NMT soon)

JBL PSW1200 Sub, 12" Sub 120 watts continous

Harman Kardon AVR5500
Thos are not unit scratches but from the front plastic film, never removed them since purchase so front is still scratchless

Panasonic L42U20S
Used the subwoofer of my Altec Lansing 2.0 PC soundsystem to elevate. Back of the LCD is secured with rope and wires. No picture coz it aint pretty but it does the job done.

AV Equipment
Panasonic TH-L42U20
Yamaha RX-V2600 (from Sir Nogie)
Harman Kardon AVR-5500 (Thinking of selling this or Gawing kong pang Audio sa Sala, not sure yet)
Polk Audio RTi A3
Polk Audio RTi A1 for Surrounds
Wharfedale 8 Center
JBL PSW1200 Subwoofer (Still kicking with no issue, this thing is amazing)
Panason SCPT75 HTIB
PS3

In 2005 i decided to stop my HT madness simply because i moved to Manila for a new Job opportunity. I tuck my gears in covered with plastics and cloth. Once in a while pag umuuwi ako sa province i turn them on just to listen to music for a few hours until to a point na di na ako masyadong umuuwi. They just lie there sleeping for almost 6 years. The addiction started when i purchased my 42 Inch Pana LCD from SNS...After that i decided to bring all my gears in Manila... At muli silang buhayin...

I dont have a nice room to setup my HT but soon i will have a dedicated HT room.. Eto ang magulo kong setup for now...

AV Equipment

Ganda!!! Pwede ba madinig yan sir?

Very nice system!

Sit back, relax and sip on your beer or coffee while listening to music or watching a movie.... hold hands with the wife while you do so, malamang uminit ulo nian sa mga recent purchases. hehehehe

My fiance looks at me with a raised eyebrow pag me nagugustuhan akong audio gear, pero for some reason, she supports it naman... hehe... Like now, she's urging me to get a new rega... Siguro alam nia na maaga ang uwi sa bahay pag maganda sounds hahahahaha

Cheers
