The theater is very well done. I was wondering why you went with the Logitech remote. Everything else is first class, but the remote seems a step below. Are you happy with it?
Also, take a look at NMT media servers. I have an HDX-1000 and it rocks!
All you people need to go to AVSforum.com and go to the "theater construction" sub-forum. You'll find threads with concepts to finish builds with more pics and info than you could ask for.
I'm also very curious about the specs of the setup.. I have read all the blogs and cant find any mention of what speakers,amp, reciever you are using for your setup...
It looks amazing i would love to build something of this quality in my house! keep up the good work :)
I've been struggling to find anything for my HTPC that will feed my Onkyo a 7.1 bitstream from Bluray. I'm coming to the realization that it probably doesn't exist (yet).
Where is that Asus Xonar 1.3a HDMI Sound card?!
I'd love to hear how Anand tackles these and similar challenges.
(And for what it's worth, I'd have gone for a Carada custom screen ;-)
Did you have an estimate of 1. How much money you spent on Materials and Consulting for the Theater Room? and 2. How many man-hours(your own and others) to do this?
Thanks.

Any chance of a FAQ page, where you list the components, materials, vendors, HTPC config/software, etc?
Would be a great reference for those of pondering a similar setup.
Thanks!

I could NOT agree more!I've been struggling to find anything for my HTPC that will feed my Onkyo a 7.1 bitstream from Bluray. I'm coming to the realization that it probably doesn't exist (yet).

Looks great Anand!Perhaps you could give us a run down of your components? What monoblock amps you have, what receiver etc..
Also are you using an IR blaster to control everything? or is that logitech remote radio freq

It looks really fantastic... amazingly close to the concept art.
