Lightbulb Who has the smallest dedicated home cinema room

I have a spare room at 8ft by 8ft.

Too small?

thats pretty small m8, but as long as your comfortable in there thats all that matters, and as long as you can enjoy your viewing.

That's a very nice, neat set-up Alan. But how could you take the screenshots from 12ft away as it says on your website?

It must be because he's outside that room, as you can see the door at the side, so its taken from 2 or 3 feet outside the door.

That's exactly what I am doing. It's currently a makeshift affair but I am looking to do a proper job in the summer. I work from home so the room also has to house an office. The room is about 3.5m x 2.5m. I will look forward to seeing your pics

Working from home in the same room as your cinema, including the 360, how are you going to stick to work duties

It's very tough I must say, I guess working in the room that I want to do up properly is motivation enough to do my work. If I don't work then I don't get the cash to do what I want.
