My great room project-built-in recessed entertainmet center

[forgop]

Here's what I tinkered around with today...drywall removal and started framing in the shelves on the left side.

I already decided to downgrade from a 12" sub to a 10" sub as I didn't want to make the bottom rack have to be 26" tall to fit it. I should have no problem getting rid of the sub and getting a different one.

I'm going to run through 2x4's a lot faster than I thought.
