Frontend vs backend
That’s how it was done 30 years ago. My friend built his basement around the TV so it would be in the wall and he had a room behind it for all the cables and equipment.
My house has it too. It’s not a full room but a cut out with a door. Because originally if there was a big TV there would be no way to get behind it.
that’s interesting, i wonder what might be a cool modern use for those TV equipment rooms now
Server room
love that idea
Weed
It was also a handy place to put all the AV equipment that has fans and clanks around and stuff. People still have AV rooms now, but the TV usually isn’t part of the room.
Those things got pretty hot if i remember correctly. Does it have any ventilation?
if it is big time it will, if it was amateur hour, probs not
What’s up with that doorknob?
*TVs
“It’s nice, but it takes up too much space in the bathroom.”
Some did that with speakers too back in the day (infinite baffle).
It’s free real estate
That screen looks awfully flat to me
I wouldn’t mind one of those depending on if I had the space but the picture quality was shit
