[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 525722, member: 6969"] I have all my AV kit in a central cupboard (under the stairs) and from there hdmi cables to feed the two main televisions. With wall hung tv's you don't want set top box clutter where the tv is. I use hdmi splitters so the same box can feed both tv's simultaneously if you want, and IR extenders so you can control all the stuff in the cupboard from both rooms. Both have surround sound systems with all speaker cabling built into the walls during the build. House audio is from an old hifi unit in the same cupboard, again with IR remote control so you rarely have to actually physically touch it, that feeds speakers in each room, all cabling built in at build time. Main audio source is a raspbery Pi Music box. I am not a fan of smart tv's. I prefer a couple of good but old dumb tv's and a cheap firestick for all the smart stuff. [/QUOTE]
