    Just noticed the comments when I updated the system a few days ago (I usually don't look here unless I update the system).  I have a bunch of sound treatments and an integrated AV system.  The ones in front of the screen and covering the side surrounds are ATS Acoustics.  I also have GIK on the sides of the screen, ASC, which one can see in the more panoramic shot of the room and homemade ones behind the listening position (owens corning covered in microfiber).  For the ATS and the homemade ones, I made (oak) stands using a 1x6 as the base with wood screws from on bottom holding 1x4s with enough opening to lay the acoustic treatment in.  For the one in front of the screen.  I built a base from primarily 1x4s (with thicker stuff at the floor level so it doesn't tip over) and screwed them on to the bases I made descrived above.

    It's really hard to fit in the alloted space (on any site) everyhing done to a system and every tweak used, either bought or made. On the right side (looking at the photo) of the rack from bottom to top are a Torus RM 20 Power Conditioner, a (solid state Modwright) modded Oppo BDP-83 (I don't play discs but I have a digital coax cable going to the DAC if someone brings one over and the it converts SACDs to 24/88.2 and then the EMM Labs DAC upconverts everythinh to 8x DSD). and on top are the power supplies to my Modwright preamp and Lumin U1 music server.  On the other side of the rack from bottom to the top are the Onkyo TX-RZ3100 receiver, an old Samsung TV tuner and a Roku box (neither sees much of use as I have other system to watch on) and on top is my Panasonic DP- UB820 Blu-Ray.  It someone is wondering what's stick up from behind the Panasonic, it is a wireless access point with multiple ethernet inputs for the Blu-Ray player, receiver, Roku, etc.( and that's done so that the ethernet jack behind the rack with an upgraded cable goes right to the Lumin music server at that end as well as connecting the NAS by another upgraded cable to the wall plate in my office).

    I have similar HT layout as yours, I notice you have a piece of acoustic panel placed in front of your screen, what is it and how could you have it stood up and held in place?   Thanks
