It’s nice that this homeowner paid homage to his heritage, with a unique Hawaiian/Mediterranean fusion. However, black and purple furniture and jerseys of Ray Lewis and Ed Reed can only mean one thing: This guy is a frothing Baltimore Ravens fan.
To help calm this savage beast during Sunday games, there are eight video displays in one space. Four 40-inch Sony LCDs circle a 52-incher in the lounge area. By the bar, there are three more 32-inch Sony LCDs. In case you’re not into being social, there’s a 110-inch screen nearby to engulf all of your attention.
To cut down on the complexities of flipping from EPSN to ESPN2, each of the eight TVs can be controlled separately. The homeowner can also use one of many Crestron touchpanels to turn on all of the TVs to predefined choices with one button. Each TV also has its own HD satellite receiver and DVD player. For the off-season, there’s also a whole-house DVD player, which can feed video to any TV. Sound comes from four Niles MP6 in-ceiling speakers above the bar, with four more in the lounge area. Visitors can also fumble with the HVAC system as well as LiteTouch lighting controls. Click here to read more.
