I see said the blind man.
Well unless you what to beat the crap out it with nails LOL yeah screwing it up is the correct way.
I would have thought cutting out the holes making sure its sized up and will fit in the correct space over the framing otherwise your stuffed if you had to do it again and plasterboard thou cheap as it is, will soon mount up in cost. Plus it’s a messy thing with all the plasterboard dust.
The sheetrock installer hung the sheets partially, and then cut out around all electrical boxes with a 'rotozip' type tool......once the rock was fully secured, he then cut the openings in place with that same 'rotozip' tool.....quick, easy, and precise......no wasted rock.
He had all of the rock hung, muded, and sanded inside of 5 work days.

I see one of these then. I’m sure glad I asked I was thinking of using Stanley blade. I’ll look into one of these an affordable model less than £100.00.Originally Posted by UreiCollector
I've finally put the finishing touches on the Urei Theater! I'm very happy with the results, and I want to thank my wife for being so supportive. I'll let the picture do the talking.....

And here is the rack.....

very very cool - now ... I like the techie perspective, but to maintain a happy household, I have to ask - what is your vision for grills to mask those lovely bluethroated warblers?

Nice!
It looks very nice. You should be quite happy, and it's great that you got support in your project.
I'll bet it's great for multichannel music. Does the screen muffle the center channel on movies, or is it one of those perf screens?
Out.
I do have grilles for all the Urei's (I had to make a pair for the 813's).....I havn't made any for the 2242's though....we are teaching my son to stay "on this side" of the coffee table. I may make some yet.
I went with the Da-Lite 'High Contrast Cinema-Perf' screen....it's remarkably transparent (acousticly).....
Frederick
WOW!!
I remember you and your dad making that 1800+ mile round trip to pick up the 815A from me thinking "this guy is nuts!"
I now see you were a man on a mission.
Absolutely bee-you-tee-full!!
Thank you so much Dog! Scoring that 815 from you was a dream come true.....the 815 has become the focal point in the room!WOW!!

Definitely the "Mother-of-all-Center-Channels". It was my pleasure. All it was doing was taking up a lot of room in my basement.
So, uh, do I get comped tickets and popcorn if I'm in the neighborhood???
Dog, you always get comped tickets, and free beer. Anytime your in Upstate NY, feel free to drop me a line.So, uh, do I get comped tickets and popcorn if I'm in the neighborhood???

Very, very nice. I bet it's hard to get you out of that room.

that is stunning
congrats on a job well done!
I noticed you are using a Sony 9000 preamp and the 9000 DVD player. I two have had these in my theater for 7-8 years. I have been wanting to replace them for a year or two now but can not find anything better or that is so easy for my wife to opperate. Do you use the internal crossover in the preamp to cut any of the lows from the speakers or are you running them all full range?
Ps. Stunning, is your screen a Stewart or a Draper???
