Slowly working on turning my basement into a game/media room.
I have a 16" vega self powered sub cabinet. It's a great compliment to my surround system, but I'm trying to figure out what to do with it.
Personally, I don't think it's horrid looking as it's in a dark walnut cabinet, but my wife doesn't love it.
I can leave it alone and just create a place to plug it in, that's the easiest solution. Another thought is my utility room will be right behind where my TV is going to hang, I thought about placing it in there, maybe make a sealed box for it in that room, cut a hole in the wall to the TV room and install a piece of accustical fabric over the opening, so it is "hidden" from view. I am planning on placing everything but gaming systems and dvd player in the utility room with a remote eye into the TV room. Another thought is possibly rebuilding an enclosure into a Bookcase/Cabinet wall I plan to build.
Thoughts???
I really like the idea of hiding all of the speakers, so if anyone has suggestion for that, that would be great. The lower 36"-48" will be white painted beadboard, the upper rest will likely be wallpaper and the ceiling will likely be ceiling paper.
