Not sure what the official name is here in Texas. I call it the den (sometimes family room). Lol
Got to thinking about your wife and the wall plates. She really shouldn’t complain - you could have run the wire across the ceiling, stapled to it, like I’ve seen others do. It’s all about perspective .��
Morning Robert!
Den! Forgot that one! The name says, 'Cozy' to me. Even more so, perhaps, then Great Room (which seems to be used here quite a bit in the midsouth. Growing up in Indy, Chicago, Milwaukee, and back to Indy in 1969, I think my parents generally called the main gathering room after entering the front door; the Living Room. In all of our homes growing up, we had a basement which was one of my favorite places. Here, outside Memphis, few basements exist because of the water table, I understand. We're 45 miles east. Not sure that even applies here. But; we do have the Bonus Room! That's where we shoot lots of 9 Ball! My beer refrigerator's reside on the landing before the final step up to the Pool Table! Works out real nice!
But; I digress..
When we built this house in 2004, I asked that they run wires for rear speakers into the back wall. But; it wasn't until 2008 that I was ready for the speakers. In retrospect, I myself might have done the speaker install better like maybe installing the mounts directly over the wires. Oh well! It's been awhile,,, I might have already mounted the wire terminal plates beforehand. Anyway; what's done is done, and those plates are soon to be covered!
