looks great, but move that giant center speaker somewhere else, it seems so in the way.

its actually ok, when im sitting down its the exact same height upto where the screen starts.
i view most of my films at night with the lights out anywho so the all speakers dissapear with them being black :D
where would i put it anyway lol its a centre speaker, hence the centralisation

I'd post a pic of my 360 setup but it's in my bros room. I've not had my jabs yet so I'll wait.

Did you use the old Xbox analog sticks and d-pad? They don't look like the ones from the 360. Also, did you mod both of those consoles yourself? The 360 looks way better than the original Xbox.

Strange question for you....

How many dvds can you fir in the drawer in the front of that unit.... im thinking of buying one myself!!

Get yourself one of those carrying case that hold CDs in sleeves. I have one that holds 200 but then you have to think about how to store the jewel case themselves. Personally, I would throw them in the garage or to the land fill all together.

yes, those sticks and dpad are from the original xbox i swapped them out. I never liked the 360 ones. Yes i did mod both myself. The reason the xbox1 looks so "rough" is because i modded it w/ a 250gb hdd and paint etc. about 4 years ago so its been around the block a lot.

Yeah i did the 360 about 8 months ago, and i really like it , but i want to do a Texas A&M University box since im going there next year. So if anyone wants to just switch cases and plus like 50 bucks (obo lol) i'd trade w/ you. Or just switch entire consoles give or take a little bit of money i'd do that as well :p

This is really beautiful. How did you achieve this? What is the bulb's wattage? Halogen?

bloody hell that's an old pic lol.

it was an old desk lamp I have from ikea, it's a halogen bulb (says 11watt max if that helps)
it's just tilted behind the monitor, I until it so I can see documents on my desk.

CRT is still king and the 30HS420 is one killer set.

killer on your back maybe.

with proper calibration any display will look 'killer'. Also.. with traditional tube sets the highest they'll go is 34". (16:9)

These are old pics but you get the idea.
