Hello all
I am currently in the very very early stages of a dedicated Home Cinema garage conversion. In the current financial climate and with other renovation work going on around the house, this project takes second place but with a little siphoning off of a few pounds here, few pounds there, im managing to get some bits done.
The room is approx 4.5m long, 2.8m wide and 2.4m tall. Garage door will be going and bricked up. Ill probably be using 50 or 100mm studs around with genie clips, double S/Proof boards and probably tecsound and green glue. Aiming for as near a room in a room as possible. Screen size will likely be in the mid -late 90s (inches) prob about 95. AT of course and all speakers will be in wall. Im also thinking of putting a TV behind the screen for more run of the mill viewing, ie sports events, concerts where i may want the lights on perhaps.
On that note, The screen wall is going to be unusually deep at about 24/25cms. This is due to a gas meter. If i can afford to move it outside i might but currently it has to stay. Think im looking at 10 or so feet to the MLP.
Ive tried to sketch up what im hoping to achieve and attached two pics. One is the overall room and then also to scale is the speaker placements im proposing. Currently working towards being able to get a 7.1.4 in?
Hope theyre readable!! Im after any advice/tweaks you could suggest to hopefully iron out any issues beforehand.
Should anyone be able to decipher what ive drawn and provide any advice i would like to offer my thanks in advance for taking the time to read.
(If you recommend it i can of course redraw the pics but im no architect haha)
Cheers
