Have to admit to being a little green around the gills but I would need a Lottery win to realise my dream HT! The nearest (literally) I'll get is when I visit Wimbledon each year for the tennis.

Looking like an amazing build ... you say "the front 9 speakers" but you seem to have drawn out / have back boxes for 12; what are the horizontal ones to be? They don't look to be the right shape for in-wall subs I don't think. Cinema: Meridian 271, 3 x DSP640 (behind screen), 4 x DSP320 (in-ceiling), 4 x DSP3100 (surrounds), 2 x AC12 (interface). 2 x Perlisten D12s subs, Lyngdorf MP40 processor. DT 145" 2.35 AT screen.

From memory there are 17 x 750's 9 front, 3 each side, 2 rear 3 x 730 for front heights 5 x 520 on the ceiling Oh and 8 x DSW600 subs sprinkled around the room We also have Meridian speakers going into various room ceilings and I think the TV room has LCR front setup as Meridian too. I might need to add a few speakers to my signature I guess Chris 2 Meridian 7200SE Speakers, 17 Meridian DSP750 Speakers, 8 Meridian DSP730 Speakers, 8 Meridian DSW-600 Subwoofers, 3 Meridian DSP640.2 Speakers, 24 Meridian DSP320 Speakers, 3 Meridian 271 Digital Cinema Controller, 7 Meridian 218, 1 Meridian 818 v3, 1 Trinnov Altitude 32 Processor, 1 Trinnov Altitude 16 Processor, Barco Freya+

From memory there are 17 x 750's 9 front, 3 each side, 2 rear 3 x 730 for front heights Ah; front heights! Of course! I might have expected them to be higher up, relative to the main LCR DSPs, but that's simply my ignorance of course. What a system; congrats for being at a place in life where you can afford it.... I hope it's everything you're hoping for. 8 subs is pretty hardcore too! Do you have a 'first light' date in mind?

Hopefully the seats will soon be on a boat from the states bound for the UK! This has definitely been a journey for me. I first remember being blown away at age 17 watching a laserdisc of The Abyss at the local hifi shop - that was the moment I became completely hooked! I did have a Meridian system with a projector when I was 30 but a house move and 3 kids put paid to that. Fun fact - you still can’t get The Abyss on Bluray so I recently bought the original laserdisc to watch again - must say I really enjoyed it. Even used a Meridian converter for the AC3 sound signal!

We have a wonderful planning department in Wimbledon!
