Hi all.
After enjoying a peek at all the home cinemas here i thought i would give you guys the low down on mine.
I live in a back to back terrace three story town house of which the garage comprises most of the ground floor. It is 4.8m long by 2.5m wide and i sit about 3.4m from my 84 inch fixed frame screen.
The floor is ply raised on some batons, the walls are all lined with soundbloc plaster board with a layer of wallsorba Wallsorba | Soundsorba (the light blue stuff in the pics) which really helps to sound proof the room.
As you can see in the pics the room is painted matt blue. The reason: Focus was out of matt black the weekend i wanted to paint. No wonder they went bust.
I have a few items of kit not listed in my sig. A toshiba ep-30 hd-dvd player donated by a friend who moved on to blu-ray. A antimode 8033c which really helped tame my sub along with an aurlex gramma which isolates the sub from the floor and i think is a must for someone like me on a wooden diy floor. Massively reduced vibration.
Love all the rest of my kit especially my JVC 750 projector and my monolith DF.
Special mention goes out to my Crystal Acoustics MM-BOX-UK which plays absolutely perfect blu-ray rips from a portable HDD as good as my marantz bd7004. Was recently reviewed by Home Cinema Choice magazine and it gets my recommendation as-well.
Also have a harmony 600. If you don`t have a harmony remote go buy one now.
Not really into making the room look super cool with led lights or prettying it up can`t see anything but 84 inches of HD when the lights go off anyway.
Hope I`ve not bored anyone too much.
Thanks
Scott
