Shannon's Kitchen - The Finished Entertainment Unit!

This is Shannon's kitchen remodel that also included a built-in entertainment unit in the family room. It is finished with the same elements as the kitchen cabinetry, i.e., door style and feet. We built it to house the new flat screen tv and the new speaker system. All the components for the tv and sound system were moved to a hall closet to be controlled with a single remote, too cool! The living room tv and sound system is also controlled from the hall closet.


There is a sliding door below the tv that houses the center speaker, here it is open:


We were able to slide the sub woofer into the closed-door area, thus hiding another black box. The sound quality is not affected by having it enclosed. Another thing we did was spend a lot of time discussing the height of the television, and since this is a very long room that is also viewable from the kitchen, we installed it at a height that works from all viewing areas-- a little higher than you would in a smaller room.
