Paratrooper,
I am ditching the coffee table when I get around to new seating. Eventually, a few years from now, I will build a larger room and plan it much better. I started with what I knew and what I had. I know much more now and will put it all to use. I'm going to take my time with it and think about everything so I do not box myself into certain restrictions as I did this time. Hindsight is 20/20.
Right now, what I have SOUNDS excellent. When I rebuild my HT room it will LOOK excellent as well. It will definately be much more modular than it is now. I don't plan on ever moving, so eventually my entire basement will end up with a HT room, lobby/snack bar, media room, equipment room, arcade room, and my wife and I have even talked about a bowling lane. Does anyone have about 50K I can borrow...no wait, have?
I will probably get everything done about the time my hearing is shot and I can't enjoy anything. Hey, it will give me something to do for the next 10 years.
