I love console TVs. Eventually I want to build one

Although I dont understand the purpose in keeping VCRs and phone books, I will second the mention of the big console TVs ... they are retro looking and you can stack stuff on them (unlike new TVs now that are about 3 inches thick) making for a really cool display sometimes!

Then you would HATE my setup. I don't have anything (right now) in the front as a console. I use a 10' (yes, foot!) high def projector screen. Perhaps i'll take pics of it sometime. Although id really like to give it a console feel, so i'm thinking of relocating my consoles and surround sound setup towards the front. I'd really like to go with a glass, matinee or piano black console entertainment stand but i'd be open for suggestions. One of these days, the kitchen is getting an overall and going with all "ICE" systems (as in stainless steel). The theater room is hard wood floor. I have some pretty wicked ideas, but don't wanna steal the thunder for the topic.
