I'm not going to use the HDMI for my sound though. I'm going to use the Optical output on my R3E into the Yamaha. I've got in-wall optical jacks just for it. Thats what i use in my HTPC in the living room and it (7.1) sounds sweet...
Pics soon. Right now i looks the same as last pics just with all the wiring and boxes. Insulation, subflooring and sheerock this weekend. Then i start building the desks/countertops.
Got this to hang my gaming monitor from the ceiling. Benching monitor is a scissor wall mount.
