Just took the huge Toshiba 55" CRT RPTV out. |

Attic - Directly above where I will be mounting the plasma. Here is where I will be drilling through the top plates to run wire. |

Another shot of the wall from the attic. I have a lot of work to do up here before day time. Since it is almost summer, attic work at night is best. |

Wall mount up. |
|
As you can see, it is perfectly level. I replaced the small lag screws that came with the kit with beefier ones from home depot. And even after predrilling into the studs, I had one snap on me. So I had to drill into the mount and use one of the smaller ones that came with the kit. FOr good measure, I also installed five additional shet rock anchors. |

Where the new center channel will go. |
|
The old center sat on the giant RPTV. Since the plasma will be almost flush to the wall, what batter solution than an in-wall center to go with the existing in-ceiling speakers? |

Shots of it installed. |
|
The display was calibrated starting with CNET's settings and then further tweaking with JK's DVE. |
