Thanks for the compliments. I must admit I was inspired myself by the Levinson equipment with the "tower" sides.
The knobs are from Kilo International...they are carried by Digikey and are only $6.

In the back there are two rubber feet. No need to get fancy with cones here.
As far as the window, I effectively cheated with the design...the copper plate is thin enough that I could use a nibbling tool to get a nice rectangular opening.

I tend to localize surround effects to one side when I am sharing the couch with my wife, so I hope this helps center the sound stage a bit better...no comments yet.
I forgot to note that the core components of this project are for sale here:

Question: I've noticed that others seem to have better contrast on their LCD...I haven't been able to adjust mine much at all. Changing the brightness doesn't change the ratio of bleedthrough to character saturation, and the contrast adjustment itself is useless: one click is barely readable, 2-3 clicks and the text completely disappears. The refresh rate is very slow too, as if the contrast is too high...any suggestions? I'd like to be able to read the screen from 6' away...

If you want to change the contrast of the screen try putting some different colour filters in front of it (you can experiment with different colour sweet wrappers from something like a box of quality street, and then you get to eat the chocolate too) as this will change the contrast of the display when you are looking at it through the filter.

This article indicates that although L+R is proposed for center channel, the difference between L and R (L-R?) is what should be sent to the rears.
This makes sense since speach and other things that are associated with characters in the center of the stereo image are kept to the front. It also means that that low base probably never gets sent much to the rears, therefore the reliance on good main speakers or a room filling sub.

Sorry to be unclear. I have discrete rear channels so no need to decode the antiphase signal. The center-rear is the sum of the discrete rear channels.
I'm afraid I cannot help you as I do not have any input boards at all. I did find a bug though..."last volume" doesn't work if the "standby" mode is used. Arg.
Hopefully this is an easy fix.- Status
