What are you using if you have them in your theater? Are they installed as-is, did you modify them for better results, and do you have pictures of them, and nothing else on, in your theater?

I just made my own. Here's a link to some pics on the A site. It just consists of a plasic outlet box mounted sideways on the wall with an outlet facing upward, a bulb socket plug to go into the outlet so you can screw a little 40 watt bulb into it, and then a few 12" X 12" sheets of lexan as the surround with my choice of designs cut out of vinyl from the local sign shop. Not hard....and really cheap.........just like me!!!!

I am not a registered member of the A site and don't plan on being one any time soon. As such, it will not let me view them.

FYI, they are now three times what you paid for them.

Actually, they were always that price on the website and cheaper in-store. Not sure why or if they are slightly different. The in-store ones were ceramic.

All week? Hell, I've got a five year engagement. The joint must be desperate...
