The wife and I sold our house and bought a new one... so the quest for building a home theater started all over again
The new room is much bigger (12'x18') than my old room (9'x14'). Old Systems can be found
here (Take 1) and
here (Take 2)
I was tired of the maroon color of my last room, and decided that a darkish grey-blue would go well with the carpet color. The ceiling (and front wall) will be black.
A major problem that I had was a large window on the wall that I wanted to install the screen onto. After thinking about this for a while, I decided that I would construct a few false walls that are wrapped with fabric to be acoustically transparent. I'll keep all of my front speakers behind the wall and keep equipment in a custom built enclosure inserted into a gap in one of the walls.
After a few weekends (one of painting, the other of constructing) this is what I've got. I'll keep posting (and taking) pictures of the progress...
