Getting Plastered

It's been a long time between drinks so far as blog updates go, but I've finally managed to get things back on track with some time off work this week.

The first photo shows how the front of the room and bulkhead has looked for the past 3 to 4 months. It's been useable, but not yet complete.

You'll notice the Focal Cache LCR 400 Centre Speaker in the middle. The motorised screen is concealed in another channel behind it, and the curtain rails in yet another channel behind the screen. The configuration is less than ideal as the tweeters on all 3 front speakers should ideally be in a straight line, but this was not possible in my room as it would block the door.

Now that the plasterboad is covering the bulkhead, you'll notice the protruding section in the middle to aim the centre speaker down at the seating position in an attempt to rectify the problem of not having all 3 tweeters at the same height. Surprisingly, it actually works fairly well!



Once again, the room's in a huge mess with plaster dust everywhere. Hopefully, once the sanding & painting is complete this will be the last time!
