A Fantasy Football Home Theater Paradise

Sports-lover simultaneously watches nine football games on plasma video wall.

If you spend enough time looking, you’re bound to find a good deal on a flat-panel TV. Just ask Bob Footitt Jr., of Moorhead, Minn.

He spent months scouring sale flyers and the Internet for a bargain. When he found it at a nearby big-box retailer, he jumped at the chance and bought, not one, but nine generously sized TVs.



Prior to purchasing the TVs, Footitt hired Arctic Audio of Fargo, N.D. to design and install a multiscreen video wall in his renovated basement.

With the TVs still in boxes, Arctic Audio started designing the system. Cardboard templates cut to the exact dimensions of each of the nine screens were used to experiment with the placement on the wall. Naturally, the biggest screen, a 63-inch Samsung 1080p plasma, would go in the center.

Above it, Arctic Audio placed two 42-inch Samsung 720p plasmas, and below it two 42-inch Panasonic 1080p plasmas. The remaining Samsung units were mounted to the left and right of the 63-incher.
