My wife and are not seeing eye-to-eye on some minor home remodeling. In particular she wants to tile throughout the house and I want to keep the entertainment room carpeted. Her solution is to lay down a throw rug, but it just doesn’t make sense to me to spend all that money on tile only to cover it up. Furthermore, the room I listen in now has several acoustical and domestic compromises.
I have considered utilizing another part of the house but realized that no other room would fit my needs adequately to make all the effort worth while. I also thought about adding on another room but there is no place to put it. Then it hit me, what about the garage?
We have a single-bay and double-bay three car garage. After taking some preliminary measurements and keeping “resale” in mind, I believe converting the single-bay into a HT would be the most practical and affordable of all the options I have thought of or considered so far. However, I am concerned about available room inside. My mission is to step up my sound system not hold it back. I think the room would make a great little sanctuary (up to three people?) but I am not sure.
The finished room would be approximately 10 feet wide and 16 feet long and slightly over 8 feet tall. Is this to small for a HT? Anyone with a similar setup? Is this a smart move or am I just kidding myself?
