Hi All
I'm Fairly new to the Community and Love the Forums
I'm Based in Durban but originally from the UK (been here about 10 years)
My System has a Fairly disastrous Start
I Have Always Loved movies and Surround sound but haven't had the Opportunity to build a home surround sound until now
It started at the End of July 2016 Durban Got hit With Torrential Rain and My House Flooded 70cm of water at the deepest
This Ruined my Entire House (My Wife was 6 months Pregnant at the Time)
So rather than Moping I started dreaming and planning what to do with the lounge surround sound with renovations took place

I Originally Wanted Big floor Standers but I had to Be Practical I was Going to Have A Baby And In No Time At all he'd be crawling and grabbing etc and Didn't want him getting hurt
So I searched online and Found the Kef T Series on wall Speakers a Call in to Ultra Sound in Jhb and they sent me to their suppliers who set up a Demo For Me I was Blown away with how much Sound they created for how small they are not cheap but worth every penny So speakers checked off the List (KEF T 205)
Next it Was the Amp I knew I wanted Denon as I've had(Still Got) Denon AVR's and I'm loving them I got a Smashing deal on Last years Model Denon x3200 I chose this for the zone 2 out Hdmi to go to My Bar
I was Very Unaware of the whole 4k tech at this Point as Hadn't paid much interest so did some more research
My Lg Tv Was Next I had Wanted a 65" but settled for a 55" (costs were climbing) it's an ok tv I'm saving up for an OLED and this Tv will go in my bar
This Leads to the Install I'm very Fussy and Didn't want any wires showing at all If your going to spend so much on your system why skimp on the Install
The Install was Done all by Myself and Wasn't hard
Walls were tracked for Conduit with box trunking where I needed more than 1 cable (dstv,rj45,hdmi, etc)

I loved these Tiles While Bathroom Shopping and Thought they'd be Great as the Wall for the Tv
So Tiled the Wall

Then It Was Time To Set It All up

My System is Changing a Bit From the Photos Input Wise
Instead of the Roku 4 I now Have the 2017 Nvidia Shield
The Lg Blu Ray Player is Getting Canned for an Oppo UDP 203 (Arriving Friday Can't Wait)
The Denon Speakers I have Facing up are gone In Favour Of In Ceiling Kef Speakers for my Dolby Atmos Setup
Thanks All
