I'm not sure if you'll be up to this, but...
I run a VERY small (me and a friend) Home Theater desing and installation company.
I work at Best Buy and got tired of telling people "no, I don't know anyone who installs them.
So, I started doing it myself.
I've done about 50 of them now, and everyone is very happy.
The scope of my biz doesn't encompass anything of the scale you seem to have achieved.
My customers usually spend under $2000 including the install!
If you'd care to/be able, you might reference my name to people visiting your page (is this a LINK?
I don't think it is as you're not sending them to another WEB page.)
I'll be happy to take calls @ 214-504-6684 (Dallas area)
Or they can E-Mail me at DJTEMPO@aol.com.
If you can, thanks. I've been wanting to put together a "page" but am not quite sure how!

Oh here is why I get to talk about MY home theater! It
dosne't live up to yours, I will tell you that... (obvious
attempt to brownnose if you don't mind!)
Anyway, I have a:
Pioneer CLD-S201 Laserdisk Player
Yamaha R-V98 Dolby Pro-Logic reciever putting out 220 front
speaker watts
Bose Acoustimass 5 system (which is 2 left cube speakers,
2 right cube speakers, and a subwoofer..which is being used
for the rear surrounds)
KLH Puny Center Speaker
2 Jensen surround sound speakers
Optimus Subwoofer, which is being used for the front
all surrounded by me... awesome, huge, great, amazing
fantastic, theater-like crap 27" T.V!!!
I know, I know, but hey....at least it sounds awesome!
Plus I have the (My newest at fav.) Star Wars Definitive
THX Collection Laserdisks.
With 57 other movies which range from: The Lion King box set
to New Nightmare, to Robocop Criterion, to Pink Floyd, to
Yanni!
Ok, Enough...you are probably rolling on the floor laughing
so hard. Ya know, I can actually hear you!
Anyway, here are my questions...
I want (MY DREAM) is to build my own home theater, with
theater seats all the whole nine yards....but the only
people I can talk to about it are pushy salesmen (know if
you are a salesmen, the precedding statement does not
apply to you....kiss...kiss!) So finailly, with the
wonderfull technology of the Internet, and a little
Yahoo surfing, I came across you....my idol...,my friend...
my GOD! Ok:
How much time did it take you to make yours
If you don't mind me asking (Ballpark) how much did it
set you back...(Including equipment, and building costs..
from the carpet, to the building of the room, to the wiring
and the seats and all the great stuff!)
And did, you have to modify the room, or did you build it
specifically to your tastes...and what not!
Please, I would like to become your second hand man, your
guardian angel, your friend, your ......your........
_______________ fill in the blank, because my mind just
became it!
Anyway, please write back to me.
Oh, I'm sure you want to know about me? Well
I am 20 years old, live at home, and work a fun part time
job. I was going to the Art Institute of Pittsburgh to
study special effects, but I wasn't the "Artist" type person
so I left, to come back here. My whole life, I have loved
movies, but it has only been recently that I have actually
decided to notice the soundtrack for a movie, is just as
important as to what your eyes see on the screen.
I got my laserdisk player for christmas..after MUCH begging.
And, I heard that the sound from that is just AMAZING, so..
I decided to hook my stereo up to it, and it sounded even
better! The movie I used to hear on it was the Abyss Special
Edition. Then one night, I asked my mom to see if I can
use her Sears card to buy some tee-shirts for school (I was
still a junior) she said O.K, so me and my two best friends
went with me. Well I am also a computer NUT! So I decided to
look at the computer stuff while I was there, then next to
the comp. is the T.V and speaker (Their AKA home theater
selection) So I moseyed over there to ask some questions,
and the salesmen took me through the basics of home theater.
He told me that I needed a stereo reciver, and 2 front
speakers, a center speaker and 2 rear speakers to get the
surround sound theater effect. Well, he showed me some stuff
and, drooling, and NOT thinking...I said "O.K" and bought
the stuff! Well, I came home that night, and my Mom said
"Those aren't Fu**ing teeshirts!" I said "I know, but
just wait and listen!" Well I set it up, and afterwards
she said "How much?" "About 500 dollars" Well, she
liked it! So I wasn't in trouble! Much trouble, till my Dad
found out....Woahhhhh boy he was NOT happy! Anyway, that is
how it started! Then it progressed to what I have now!
BUT it isn't enough. I want my own room that I CAN call
my "Home Theater" and , since I found you, I guess you can
help me out....ole buddy ole pal!
Please write me back!
Talk to ya later!

We in the UK find it very difficult to get hold of Laserdisks, pal
releases are normally 2-3 months behind US releases. It would be very
helpfull to have names and fax numbers of companies in the states that
sell disks and would be prepared to sell them.
