A lot of it is that the design of good home theater equipment is ugly and not spouse-approved. My wife simply will not tolerate big black speaker boxes and a black stack of receiver equipment in the family room. No matter how well it’s hidden away. And I know a lot of families that have the same desire for a nice looking living space.
- bombcar 2y agoThat's where you upgrade to in-wall speakers!

- ryandrake 2y agoThis is actually what I did in our previous home. Installed round Monoprice brand in-wall speakers, and hid the AV equipment in the next room, one wall away. It sounded--not too bad.
