bigpants_ku Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 Here you see my last HT. I tore it down and moved on June 1. Mynew HT is under construction. I'll start with the same RF-5's but Ithink I'll upgrade them to Heritage or RF-83's eventually. I'veupgraded the center to an RC-64 for this big room (approx 8,000 cubicfeet, and 941 square feet) and I'm still trying to figure out what inthe heck I'm going to do for a subwoofer(s). Here's the floorplanwith some color lines indicating plans for the room. This is thehalf of the basement with the HT- it's a big multi-purpose room. Not ideal for HT,but it will work for now. The green circle isthe poker table. Here are the plans for the video wall: Andhere is my progress so far. We're going to make that beam into anarch with boxes on the ends, which will be cool, and allow for somelighting hidden behind some trim. And yes, that left bookshelf is also a door. SHHH! [:#] Quote
nathometheatre Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Our make shift home theatre. Still lots of work needed, eg; new carpet, sound panels, new theatre seats & decorative wall treatments. This little room is only 9' wide x 19' deep. So I can only fit 2 recliners x 2 rows. The kids lay on bean bag chairs in the front, so with kids we can seat 6-7 comfortably. One other big (litterally) issue, is that the sub I currently have is an SVS PB12/Plus2! It takes up too much space, and currently I have it up against the right wall being used as a coffee table (unless were watching heavily bass encoded movies, and it will rattle anything sitting on top of it OFF). But, for now this little theatre sounds incredible and we look forward to watching movies almost every night! Quote
nathometheatre Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 sorry. not familiar with how to post pics several at a time. Quote
nathometheatre Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Front pics didnt come out as well, but you can still get the idea. Mounting the RC-7 using two steel "L" shaped brackets was tough! Had to find both studs 16" apart to hold this beast! Quote
nathometheatre Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Sorry for the confusion. My descriptions were not corresponding with the correct pictures taken, but I think you guys can put it together. Were still going to remove the computer under the rear speakers, and add a 5" riser to accommodate the rear two seats. The wiring you see hanging from the ceiling was from some old track lighting witch were replacing too! Once were completely done I'll post new pics (with the correct descriptions!). Hope you enjoy our humble little theatre! Kevin Quote
dachuckster Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Sorry, no pictures of the smoking hot wife! [] Quote
dachuckster Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 So far, I only play one song, Freebird, in easy mode. My kids are good at it though. And now with the new release of Guitar Hero, 80s, I may like more songs. The Wii, however, is very fun. My wife and I play that quite a bit. Quote
banasikdrummer Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 I really want to put up my pictures to see how torn apart my "home theater" will get... Lotta crap for a 6.5'x11' section of my bedroom, eh? Quote
Kid22 Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 This is my new Home theater, I ran the cables in wall through the cable jack plate for my surrounds. It is a start but id liek to go bigger someday Quote
Buckeye_Nut Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 My HT is listed in the photo album section, but not yet updated since my latest change. My latest change was the addition of ceiling acoustic treatments. I have a strip of low ductwork that runs the the entire width of the room that served as both a reflective light source, as well as my primary acoustic ceiling reflection point. I fixed two issues with a single simple step:) Quote
Nuckle Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 This is my set up. It has to double as our living room.
