I found V1 of my HT was okay with my center channel up high and pointed down...aside from being off center ever so slightly
but once the speaker decided it was afraid of heights.....
I decided to move it below the screen and I found the performance much better....as well as the finish...wow they morphed to HG!
then I decided after a long time to finish the stand...
I still need to take new pics of the whole front set up. It's funny seeing the pics as the equipment rack continuously changes in each picture
I've put off too long painting the inside of the rack black or adding something around or behind the equipment to make it look cleaner or flush...
