Man Cave Must Haves

Have you ever been over to a buddies house and wondered how he has speakers half the size of yours yet it seems to sound 100 times better? It’s time to do something about it! It’s time to talk about how you can get the best sound for your Man Cave while still keeping within your budget.

The first thing you need is a surround sound system. Now for those of you that are new to the surround sound arena let me give you a few tips.

1. You don’t need to buy the most expensive system to get great sound! (although it is good to have some high quality speakers.)
2. Know what you want! Do you want Dolby Digital® 5.1, Dolby TrueHD® 7.1, or DTS®
3. What is the size of your room? Do you know if you are going to go wireless or not? (this is technically one question. Based on the room size and shape you may opt to go wireless.)
4. You need to know how much you can spend before going out and setting up a system. Do your research to know exactly how much it will cost for what you want so there are no surprises.
5. Get ready to live!

Now that you have figured out exactly what you want how do you go about choosing? Well you could take your friend who has the great sounding surround already… Or you can jump online and see what others have gotten and how they rate the things in your price range. You will come to find out that like I said earlier, it’s not always how much you spend to get great surround. Click the read link to find out how to setup your new surround system. continue reading…

     Gaming chairs have come a long way since the wedge shaped chair that was used in the days of Nintendo. The E1000 Gaming Chair by Repose is, in my opinion, the best gaming chair out there. This thing has built in 2.1 sound system jacks to plug in an mp3 player, a jack for headphones, and even a swing out cup holder. You can even hook another chair up to yours so you can share in the sound. Now, I love my simple 5.1 surround system but the sound that comes from this chair is so crisp and clear that you swear it’s not just a 2.1 system.

The comfort of this chair is top notch. The manufacturer of this chair also makes top of the line massage chairs, and believe me, when the sub starts going this becomes a massage chair.  It gives you the ability to fold it up for storage, but why do that? You can get it in a few different colors and it looks good in any man cave. With a $450 dollar price tag it is a bit steep but there are no regrets or buyer’s remorse with this chair.
