...therefore I shall call upon the brain-trust that is HTG, to help me plan and layout my HT room.
Here's what I have to work with:
Length of room: 18 feet
Width of room: Planning on 12 feet but can push to 14 feet (one wall is not built yet so I have this luxury)
Height of room: 8 feet
All of these dimensions are with unfinished walls, etc...so once drywall or related material go up dimensions will change (subtracting inches of course).
I built an opening in the front of the room to "sink" my HDTV into, so that it does not stick out into the room. I'm thinking of building an "island" in the middle of the room that will be raised for my second row of theater seats, with the first row being on the floor. I like the raised island approach instead of raising the entire back of my HT just for my second row...make sense? Shortly I'll sketch out something and post it here.
Other then that I'm looking to "hide" all my gear and speakers in columns and behind transparent walls.
So what I'm looking for from you fine folks is advice about materials, accoustics, and all that jazz. I've got a good list running but would love your feedback and input.
Ask any questions of me too!
Thanks, E
