    I saw one I really liked a while back “The (insert name of your town or neighborhood) Uniplex.”

          I'd guess the two most common HT names are: "my home theater" and "our home theater". (That's probably a distant second.) :>)

            "CineMac"
            all the way
            I started with "Y theater"
            But it sounded funny

              Mine is the "Globe Theater", for many reasons that I won't necessarily go into. But it's partially in homage to Shakespeare's original Globe Theatre in London where he showed plays.

                I don't have my Home Theater gear and set up completed, as of yet.

                But I was thinking of calling it ......."The Boom Room" :B

                  Like Andrew, my HT is in the basement, and since it has grey walls and little color, except the wine colored drapes that frame the screen, I have pretty much been calling mine The Hole In The Ground Cinema.

                    Mine doesn't have a name. But Martha Stewart would call it, "Isn't that supposed to be the living room?" ....... :roflmao:

                              I didn't pick out the name but since I've always had some type of HT setup my friends sarcastically dubbed it Poe Cinemas and it stuck. They have no idea what's in my setup so it's kinda to poke fun at my obsession but i take pride in it and it works all the same.

                              has anyone purchased a movie intro from ElectroShops? They are only $150 and I think it would be pretty cool. Would be inconvienent to switch disks though unless you're using a changer or HTPC setup.

                                I am sure that there will be some missing from this original list so in that case I will ask that members can post the words and there meaning/explanations...
