    That green was nice, it's like a royal racing green of sorts. Good choice. On another note, the blue on the back of the chair compliments the green quite nice and plays well with the rest of the room, I wouldn't even worry about it "matching". Nice touch on the drawer front diy repaint. With a final note, you have come a long way this past year in your understanding of design. I like what you have done. I don't have a gripe on anything, the only thing I could think of to potentially make the room "better" is placing a color bar for the projector, underneath the wall where it is displayed so that it would give you more ambience and color match the frame. And maybe even under the sofa too so your feet can glow and balance between the wall and your physical point of contact creating a deeper sense of emersion. I've definitely subscribed, I hope to see more of these in the future. Maybe you can do one for your wife?

      connected by RCA from DX3 pro plus to RCA on the TUK's - the light was on USB because I forgot to switch it back to RCA. I did try out the USB connection and it doesn't work too well with Mac, there's an issue with the volume control and volume knob. That's another reason why I used an external DAC
