tv and surround sound

10 years ago

Thoughts please...we are going to be redoing the corner fireplace in the spring and cutting, tiling and painting the adjacent wall with the tv I am wondering everyones thoughts on surround systems. Currently we have a too small tv stand for the tv and these awful looking tall surround sound speakers. Would it be better to have custom cabinetry done that would incorporate/hide these monsters or have a new surround system built into the walls and a new tv stand? Pro/cons for both?

So I would suggest that you build in the surround sound speakers and paint the covers the wall color. I would also invest in a TV cabinet that has covered storage that could also mount to the wall. The thin brick product would be neat to use on both walls and I would get a cool oversize clock to mount above the fireplace that is black and open so you could see the brick through it

Are you going to leave the fireplace in the corner or move it, so that it is a focal point in the room?

I hate black! The house had black tile throughout when we moved in, hubby bought black leather sofas (because there isn't any other type lol), everything black! We have a nice home but I still feel as though we live in a bachelors pad. Time for a few changes...

We have to leave the fireplace where it is sadly; thats why I want to redo it. I want to bring a lighter and more modern feeling into the space but its baby steps. I have a few discussions up re the fireplace and office space if you want to have a peek.

Melinda do you have any pictures of a clock that could work?

Where space is limited we like to install custom soundbars that are made the exact width of a television. These LCR soundbars take the place of your typical (left, center, right) speaker configuration. We have a few of them in our Houzz projects if you want to see an example.
