    Basment Installs

    Well, I was about to upgrade my system, but it now seems I will be upgrading my residence instead. Most exciting is that the new place has a finished basement which my wife has generously granted to me to "do whatever you want with it". Of course, we all know what that means.

    So, I thought I would put it out there and see if anyone here has any experience with basement installs and set ups. I may be jumping the gun asking for input at this point, as I don't have many good details to give, but we'll see if anyone has any ideas. I'm guesstimating the room at 600 sq ft, something like 20x30 with a 7 ft. ceiling. The walls have a wood paneling that has been painted white, with a carpeted floor.

    I would be very interested in hearing about any sound treatment or wiring techniques that some have used. In fact any basement install anecdotes would be appreciated. I may not get too serious about it until I have the money to upgrade my equipment, but I also think I will get antsy to do what I can and would love to hear ideas!

    My theatre is in my basement and I learned a lot about what I'd do again and what I'd change. I'll see about posting more when I get a moment this weekend but if you have specific questions let me know. There's some before and after pics on my website to get you started though
