Good afternoon Everyone,
Im new to the forums so wanted to reach out for some advice. My partner recently has expressed the desire to convert one of our spare bedrooms into a cinema room. She's been having a bit of a tough time of it lately (Nurse at the local hospital) so I thought id crack to it and get it done.
Our house is a bungalow with a loft conversion. First floor has basically two bedrooms this is the 2nd bedroom.
My partners birthday is this week so I've rather jumped the gun on things, rather than come here first which I appreciate I should have done.. I've bought - Denon AVC-3700H as my amp, then a bunch of Q Accoustic speakers - 3050i floorstands as fronts, 3020i rears, 3090i centre and QB12 sub.
I was planning on running a 5.1.4 build and I have bought 4 x Q Accoustic Qi65c to do this.
After doing some reading on here im not sure how well this will work. Ive held off getting a screen until Ive got the projector set up, but anticipate going for a 100" Pull down screen to go at the end of the room (recommendations gratey received). I dont plan on relocating the radiator (see picture). I read an article on here about bloc blinds (i think theyre called) so will be buying for both windows.
Originally the other half wanted a double row seating setup but i dont think it works. Instead im looking into a corner / ushaped couch - ideas budget around £1k i guess.
The biggest factor i suspect is the vaulted ceiling - this means a 100" Screen will sit around 30cm off the top of the ceiling and also limit atmos placement?
I read a couple of posts and people had advocated a 7.1.2 setup as opposed to a 5.1.4 set up in similar spaces. I guess i could use two of my in ceiling as in wall?
I have fairly good access to the ceiling void as there are crawl spaces either side of the walls and access to the majority of the ceiling. I will be running speaker wires myself.
I intend on painting the walls and ceiling a very dark matt green. Carpets probably to be replaced at a later date when we do the rest of the house (we have an 8 month old puppy who currently trashes the place).
Really after any pointers you may have particularly re: 5.1.4 vs 7.1.2 and speaker placement. Below is a photo and plan of the room.
Thanks in advance, i appreciate you get dozens of similar requests.
