  1. I am a aspiring armature home theater designer builder and this is the second home theater I've built for myself in the last 5 years.  My first was located in Murphy, TX for a little more than three years until I moved to My current residence located in Heath TX on Dwyer CT.  I've lived here for nine months and it took 4 months of work to get this theater not only functional but presentable as well for family and friends.  I did as much work as possible DIY.  The build consists of Three Areas: 

    1. The main Home Theater Room 
    2. The Concession Closet
    3. The Hall Way Entrance Gallery:

     

    The Main Home Theater which is located on the second floor in a 20.5'" x 15.5' bedroom.  The room has two exterior walls both of which have 1 Double window. All of the interior walls have multiple doors consisting of three for closets, one for the Jack and Jill bathroom and an entry/exit door.  Attached to the room is a 6'-0 x 6'-0  Walk-in closet being used for Storage of Media and surplus theater décor. and a on suite Bathroom door located in the rear of the theater.  The main theater room has Seating for 10-12 people within three seating zones.

    1. Front row seating - Consists of three black leather power recliners 10'-0 from the screen.
    2. Platform seating - Consist of three Burgundy recliners on a raised carpeted platform composed of shipping pallets covered in 3/4" Sub flooring.  It is 8'-6 x 14'-0 x 0-8"
    3. Bar seating - Composed of 4 extra tall Bar Stools and a counter (not completed yet) located behind the platform seating.  

     

    The "Concession Closet" is a double walk-in closet that has two doors on the left surround wall of the main home theater room.  It is 13' x 4'-2" and houses and displays all of the food and drinks, and equipment for preparations of concessions served in the theater.  There is also space for concessions related collectables and décor to be displayed as well.  

     

    The Hall Way Entrance and Gallery is the third major part of the home theater experience.  It is a 15' x 5'-0 x 7'-0 dog-legged hallway leading into the main theater.  The main purpose of this area is to create dramatic affect and build anticipation through the display of cinema artwork, collectables and movie posters. This area also fetures custom accent lighting, sinage and decorating techniques to enhance the desired effect.

  2. I'm new to this forum but I've had Klipsch to some degree in all of my home theater builds and I love them.
