A home theater from 'galaxy far, far away...'

The homeowner was 'blown away,' and we are downright stupefied; drooling all over the floor. 4 years in the making, this Palm Beach County, FL home is worth every penny spent, and would be the dream of every 'Trekkie,' to say the least. The standout feature of this home is a 70-by-22 feet home theater that is modeled on 'Star Trek' and how.

The home theater, which is modeled on Enterprise NCC-1701-A, is a picture perfect replica and truly a galactic experience, from the looks of it. The anonymous homeowner had approached Jay Miller, president of Acoustic Innovations, with a traditional home theater in mind, but latter's keen eye saw the owner's penchant for sci-fi. This has led to a creation that has to be seen to be believed.

The three areas - bar, ready room area and the theater - are a true representation of the franchise. Everything about this theater is out of this world. From the cleverly concealed closet containing main equipment to an adjoining room, which is a source of A/V distribution (And while we are at it, the storage room boasts of no less than 3816 DVDs.).

And as if the 'Star Trek' theater needed a testimony, CEDIA (the Custom Electronic Design and Installation Association) readily supplied it one. CEDIA chose this theater as its top theme theater '07. The homeowner is taking obvious interest in furthering his interest in the franchise and has amassed a huge collection of 'Star Trek' memorabilia.

What takes the cake is a 'Red Alert' button on the Crestron TPMC-10 controller, which gets all the LEDs to do funny stuff, just like the original cockpit. The pics in gallery are just incredible. Now all you need is a funny forehead and a weird hairdo, then the experience would be just complete.
