Post pictures of your SF/entertainment setup!

Yup Optoma HD20 1080P goodness. :tup:

Almost finished the main entertainment room. One of my Meridian amps is if for repairs after I stupidly replaced the fuse with an incorrect one :frowning:

Whats is that on the Ikea coffee table??

It’s a Meridian System Remote. Good spot with the coffee table!

Thats a nice clean setup!

  • Eric, what brand of speakers are those? I’m guessing higher end if you are using a Meridian amp. :wink:

loving the HD-DVD player for 360!

@Dash, thanks mate! We like very little clutter in the house which is difficult with kids but we recently had a purge and got rid of loads of stuff we’ accumulated over the years. Everything is now in cabinets and hidden away.i’ll be investing in a Harmony one RF remote at some point as all the av equipment is in the cabinets under the tv so can’t be operated by IR. very well. The IR extender is picking up interference from the plasma which is a well known problem.

@tokerblue. They’re Kef Reference 3’s for the mains, a Kef 200c for the centre and Kef 34-TDM-DS’s for the rears. The main pair of speakers has a Meridian 557 stereo amp drivng them, the centre has a Meridian 505 monobloc and the rears have a meridian 556 stero power amp. There’s also a Meridian 565 CD unit, a Meridian 562V multimeda controler and a Meridian 596 transport forCDs. The Kef’s are great speakers which I can’t see me ever replacing unless they get damaged. I’m in the market for a new sub as the REL I have isn’t a very good match and isn’t too hot on music reproduction. I’ll take some pics of the av kit in the cabinets later.

  • I have the Harmony One (non-RF) and it’s a great remote. One of the best for ergomonics that I’ve ever used.
  • Kef makes great speakers. It’s too bad you’re not in the U.S. There are a lot of really great internet direct subwoofer companies here (Epik, Hsu Research, SVS). I’m not sure if they ship internationally, but their prices are fantastic and they will outperform any retail subwoofer.

Oh man, I’d love to see the response this would get on neo-geo.com, lol

I’m no arcade purist, but personally I don’t think an xbox + emulators is any substitute for a an origial arcade setup. But that’s just me… I say that as someone who IS actually putting a pc in a blast city cab, but I would never do it at the expense of the original functionality. It’s still wired to play jamma/jvs/naomi via the original game hardware without having to change anything, so that’s the perfect compromise for me. Can play original game boards when people are over, and ggpo, sf4 or whatever online with the sit-down cab experience. cost a…little bit more than a 40$ xbox, but totally worth it imo. I’ll post up some pics when it’s finished.

I keep the xbox +emus setup for the console stuff (which is another interesting thing- playing console emus on an arcade cab like some people do is the same as playing mame on an xbox from a controller to me…just wacky :stuck_out_tongue: ) Not dissing anyone if that’s your style, but I like to keep the experience as close to my original memories as possible.

my SF cabinet

I got this cabinet back in the day when SF2 first was out in the arcade. It’s actually a Captain America and the Avengers cabinet in which the distributor customized it for SF2. Right now it has my xbox 360 in it for some SF4 action(as well as for SSF4 in about 3 weeks) :bgrin:

Wow, you guys have some pretty badass setups!
As a college student still living at my parents home, this is the best I can do:

As you can see, I’m much more into my toys but SF has been a fave of mine ever since I saw my brother play SF II Champion Edition in the arcades, then months later, we got a SNES + SFII as the first game!
Gotta move the book shelf around, making way for another Ikea Detolf glass cabinet for incoming toys…

If only Capcom made a Masked Rider/Kamen Rider game, it would be a money maker in Japan!

Where can I find those Sf4 posters I see in most peoples pics?

which one?..

Badass setups you guys got, cant wait to set up something similar of my own.

Actually I’ve been wondering about SF4 or any Street Fighter posters myself as well. And to Aznxtc, any?

I got mines from Ebay. Except now there’s like barley that much official posters on ebay just third party ones.

Epic setups guys. I`ll have to post mine when its all finished up.

Dope…
I always wondered how well it would work to put the Detolf shelves on top of something. What exactly are you standing them on? I wanna raise mine up higher.

I’ve always wanted to post in this thread, here we go:

My quaint little set up:
Asus VW266H
PS3
360
PC
Logitech THX 2.1

Playing most of everything I want between the 3 (minus cvs2). Set up to get a Vewlix mock up soon here as well, will definitely update when it is completed. Nice set ups throughout the whole thread guys, lets see more!
