    3 TV setup in man cave

    I’m setting up a TV wall in my bonus room and looking for some advice on the best approach. I’m going with 3 TVs, a 70” in the middle, and a 50” on each side. I’m not going to go 4k.
    What I need to connect
    3 Direct TV boxes
    Apple TV
    PS3
    I would like to be able to switch any of these between the 3 TVs so I would need a type of matrix switch that can handle at least 5 inputs and send out 3.
    I also am prewired for surround sound so I would like whatever input is on the middle tv to be on the surround. How would I do that with a receiver and a hdmi matrix?
    Also curious about a universal remote or possible ipad app that would control this?

    This will be used mainly for sports viewing multiple games at once.
    I might have lofty expectations but seeing what everybody thought. Thanks!

      Good question here. This post was also duplicated over in the Mission Possible DIY section, so I'm going to lock this thread and redirect everyone there.

      DIY (Do it yourself): Cabinetry, speakers, subwoofers, crossovers, measurements. Jon and Thomas have probably designed and built as many speakers as any non-professionals. Who are we kidding? They are pros, they just don't do it for a living. This has got to be one of the most advanced places on the net to talk speaker building, period.

      Well, we're safe for now. Thank goodness we're in a bowling alley.

          4x4 HDMI Matrix splitter
          by OldMan
          I have been doing some research on purchasing a 4x4 HDMI matrix splitter and one common problem plagues them all. And when you think about it, the problem makes perfect sense and can NOT be fixed. (But you can get around it, see below)

Surrounds are currently 600s3, center is lcr600, sub is asw600. Surrounds/Center driven by Odyssey HT3 (cap upgrade). I am moving to the 802's...

So there are some early adventurous moments and later, even some scary moments. But in the end it all became just too silly. Still, I don't regret...

          "Digital" TVs, deciphering the terms.
          by Dean McManis
          "Digital" is a buzzword today, and it is regularly abused. Most "digital" cable is NOT transferring high definition digital signals, but they are transferring the 480i NTSC analog signals into digital format, so that they can compress them, to get more channels across the line. So...
