So, I've updated due to the accumulation of new shyt, it's varied enough to see a difference. 1st pic is where I moved my desk from the right side to the left side of the television. Still got some of my PC stuff there, the monitor is upstairs on wife's computer since I never went dual screen often. I have calculators as in plural because I work in finance, simple calculator, and my TI Business Analyst Plus. Other random assorted things like my two Xbox One Controllers, 160GB iPod Classic, DJ Hero turntables on the bottom and hand sanitizer, since my son and his friends be trying to blow up the spot now, wash your fukking hands before you touch my shyt. He be trying to be cool and shyt and floss down here, just keep my shyt clean lil iceberg.

Where the games are that are physical, PS Vita is in the case behind the controllers. Yes, I did import Dead or Alive Xtreme Volleyball 3, I'm a fan, making no apologies.

Raise the shelving to accommodate more games

A few steps back from the television, PS3 and Xbox 360 controllers on the entertainment system. I upgraded that camera from the one in the previous pics, I believe I had a 720p one, this is 1080p

Had to move some things around since we got new couch and sofa upstairs, I wanted the old sofa down here and to match, I was just like, this mancave gets more traffic now, i.e. kids and unsure of their level of home-training, a futon will suffice so that is what I got. Over in the corner are my Rock Band drums and guitar with my Pioneer DDJ-SX and some Pioneer DJing headphones. Astro A50s on the PC case

Copped another Michigan rug, this is the best place for it for now. I have two keyboards and three mice down here. On the futon, I'll use my Corsair K70 RGB keyboard and M65 Pro Mouse. When on the sofa furthest away from the television, I have my Logitech wireless keyboard, wireless trackball, and wireless regular mouse. A nikka just likes options fam.

Another shot of the futon, white thing on the floor is my mancave fridge. I fukking hated always going upstairs to get something to drink, call it laziness but during the 4th quarter of a tightly contested sporting event, I'm not trying to leave the viewing area, it's an Emerson fridge and it's dope. My gaming junk drawers with miscellaneous stuff like my Hori arcade stick for PlayStation systems on top. You can see my trackball mouse in this pic. Some new posters since last time as well. My work suitcase next to the fridge, during warm months, I use that for my work laptop, during the cold and snow, I have a carrying case for it.

I'm a Detroit nikka, born and raised, this is what I rep, the sofa in question. I think everyone has that piece of furniture that will hit you like Nyquil, this is mine. Comfy as fukk. Yes, I shyt talk the Lions virtually every day of my existence, but they are my fukking team and I, unfortunately, bleed Honolulu Blue.

On the fireplace, I keep my tablet, it's a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition (long name) One of the best purchases I've ever made in regards to value and enjoy derived from it.

Because I'm running out of room, I wanted to get some monitors for my DJing since I do it as a hobby. However, I dug these Bose Companion 2 Series II out of hibernation and sent them back to work. This is behind the television, I'm working some getting something to mount on the wall or something.

Same thing for the other side, in addition to a 1TB and 8TB HDD back there.

I want to do something about this wire clutter, but I think this is the best thing smoking now.

This is the actual view from my sofa

If I'm posted up on the futon, yes, that's part of me in the pic. I lounge down here.

Post your setup, brehs.

I'm ready to buy some new electronics this summer so tell me what you have or what you'd get if you had money.

I knew a few years ago that Klipsch speakers were the best to get but, I'm unsure if these speakers are overkill for what I'll be mainly using it for such as gaming and watching films/streaming.

So I just wanted to know your thoughts on what I should get?

I have a Sony 7.1 surround set up that I love. I picked it up during the week of Black Friday sales at Best Buy. Got the whole set up for half off. I think I paid like $700 for everything. They had the Klipsch joints on sale at the time but after reading a lot of reviews I went with the Sonys. The Klipsch speakers are supposed to be great but I read a lot of posts about the sound being a bit on the bright side which some love but for me, I prefer a more flat (natural) sound since I have a recording studio and do a lot of mixing it’s something I’ve gotten used to and prefer. I took the time to hang my speakers on the walls and ran the wires behind the sheet rock. Wasn’t difficult at all to do. (You just have to check first if your wall has any fire blocks running perpendicular between the studs that would stop the wire your running, if so, you have a few options that would require more work). The receiver has 4 or 5 HDMI 2.1 inputs and has all the bells and whistles you could need.
Overall I’d recommend looking into the Sony ones. I don’t remember the model numbers but can get you them a little later.

You recommend Sony, but what about Yamaha and Pioneer.

Years prior before I stopped keeping up I read that Yamaha had the best sounding DAC, or are they all on par at this price range so just get the cheapest one? :jbhmm:
Of course I do. :DAIGOPLZ:I was just wondering if the water cooler was the wave. :DAIGOSKIP:

Man. That's great. Congrats
Yeah, I just help with bills where need be and I pocket 95% of my salary.

I have no car or big utility bills and my biggest expense is my travel card for work (which isn't much).

I'm trying to learn the stock market to invest and help with my savings but that shyt's mad intimidating and complicated fukk it.:whoo::hubie:
