Home Cinema Room Size?

Hello,
I have put an offer in on house which will have a spare Bedroom that i will be able to use as a dedicate home cinema room (Girlfriend permitting).
The room is 3500*3000mm. Will this make a good size for a cinema room. It won't be a very expensively or well equipped room due to the budget, but will just house all the equipment thats in my living room at my current flat?

What do you guys think, and what sizes are yours (oo err missus! )

i think the size of your room will be fine. everyones h/c is different whether its a cellar/garage/bedroom, unless you can build a dedicatd room i.e extension, then you can choose your sizes...mine is about 10ftx14ft and i managed to get everything i needed in there....

hope this helps

Would agree with the above, that size should be fine. Mine is about 3.3m by 3.3m
