i think i will go with a jukebox in the end... the thing is with the wall mount where do you stick the speakers ? i mean if you want a good set of speakers you'll need space for them..
and a jukebox without a good sound is pretty lame no ?
i am dying to do a jukebox
but the thing with the jukebox in the end is the fabrication of the tubes mainely .. it will cost me somthing like a cupple of hundreds if not thoughsends of dollars just to fabricate the outer semi transperant glass tubes for it... or to fabricate it with the same matirial they use in the real jukeboxes...

Good point, my friend. My jukebox does NOT have built in speakers. It's in my game room, which was previously my family room. We rearranged out living space, so the main TV is now in the living room. I simply used my home theater setup for sound. The room is wired for 5.1, and I just sent the audio output from the jukebox directly into the home theatre receiver, which is hidden in the base for my Megatouch. It sounds great.

so friend,
if i'll decide to go with the jukebox any sujjestions on how to do it look good ?
i mean the main problems as i see it is all the metal work .. (lots of sculping to do ... i guess and from a matirial that i can color to look like metal)
and offcures the big glass or plastic or whatever tubes that runs on the side...

i think if i'll make this project it's one hell of a project with very little forums or people to talk to about making one from scrach...
