So I decided to rip out my PAX and second TV and just go with one TV and do a new permanent recessed looking shelf system. In short the top will be around 29-30" for the larger 1/4 PFs with the 2 sides being around 26-27" for the normal size PFs. The space it will occupy is setback a bit due to the bathroom wall on the left.
It will be constructed as 2 towers with a bridge across the top. It will be 2x4s and then covered in 2x6s to give the appearance of thicker shelves and to hide the lighting. It will finish the outside and likely touch the side walls to appear like a natural shell. It will also have a rubber flooring for each shelf.
So right now it's August 7, 2017 I just got my plans and rough estimates documented. I have the single TV centered so I could be sure on measurements. A lot just so I can measure. Unfortunately I have vaulted ceilings that start at 8' unlike the 10' downstairs so it's all tight and has to be exact sizes. If I thought 2x2 was strong enough I'd enjoy the extra few inches per section.
Ok so I'll post the drawing and pic I took. I may post a few other pix before I start cutting wood in a few days. I guess it will be like when I did the flooring running up and down stairs. Can't work up here. I have to build it in sections and by breaking the 14.5' top shelf into 2 pieces I may just do some screwing it together upstairs. Will definitely have to do the flat boards up here.
