Title: Show us what you've got!
Post by: AVSLaurie on March 02, 2021, 05:41:37 PM
Just about everybody likes looking at pictures - as long as they are not of your mother-in-law’s best friend’s grandchildren that you have already seen 10 times. 
We’re talking electronics  8) … powerful projectors, awesome AVR’s, spectacular speakers and absolutely amazing automation apparatuses. We want to see it all, whether you built it yourself or had it customed designed and professionally installed.  Join in the fun and post photos of your home theater, media room, man cave or chick-flick haven; big or small, all are welcome. Keep in mind that we do reserve the right to remove anything that might be offensive to others. We will be posting random pictures, at our discretion, to our website and rotating them occasionally, so anything you upload acknowledges your consent and release.

We look forward to seeing what you’ve got!

Here are a few pictures of the front of my room. Behind the screen. Below the screen. Third picture is with Screen Excellence trim masking screen in place and grills below the screen in place. The 18's in the baffle wall are subs. The three 18's below the screen are the woofers (TD18H+) for my LCR's.

Fairly modest compared to Mike and Craig, but I am very happy with my living room. I have an Epson 6040, 109" Grandview fixed frame, Def Tech 9060s for left, right and center. Two Klipsch subs, Denon 3400, with Atlantic Tech surrounds to complete the 7.2. Control4 EA1 with a few light switches round off my system.

I don't have a dedicated home theater like most have here. I do have on the other hand, a multi-purpose room which is used as a game room / home theater room.

See pictures attached.

My equipment:

Samsung UN75F8000 LED TV, NAD T-777 (7.2 Receiver), Oppo 103 Blu Ray Player, Sony PS4 Gaming Console, Wii U Gaming Console, Panamax MR-5100 Surge Protection, 7 Paradigm Reference series 8" in ceiling speakers (AMS-150R) - 30 degree tilting speakers, 2 Paradigm SE Subs.

Laying out 151”  ULTRA WEAVE V7 screen from the AV Science. Using Paper and tape to layout screen distances, soundstage and reflections. Going with 7 focal inwall 300 Series speakers ($7850.00), four sonance 8” in ceiling (repurposing) and two SVS SB-2000. A 7.2.4 atmos setup of a MARANTZ  SR7013. This is my first home theater project. So I know many future upgrades. Very open to suggestions.

If you’re going to leave the left side open then I’d suggest heavy absorption on the right side to maintain balance. An open wall is the equivalent of an absorber.

Thanks you for the support. I am adding 4 absorption panels and thinking of adding 4x4 inch corner foam blocks behind MDF BOARD. (Combination of diffusion / absorption ) I don’t know what this would do. But since the absorption panels stick out from the wall 5 inches, I figured I would have the MDF panel also stick out 5 inches and backfill it with something. ( 4x4 foam block) 🤷🏽‍♂️

I like the look, and audio including bass has never sounded better in my theater. Even my wife frequently comments on the sound ( the picture being great at this point is a given ).

Here's the newest addition to my room...a Trinnov Altitude 16. I reviewed it for an upcoming issue and just couldn't let it go--it sounds amazing and the room correction is unlike anything I've ever experienced.

All black surfaces, acoustic panels on primary wall and ceiling reflection points, acoustic rear wall panels, front corner bass traps -- all work together to let good quality, but not top of line equipment to perform well above their norm.

11.2.2 sound setup, JVC projector on 150 inch 16:9 with a DIY, 2 way masking system.

Main speakers are 20 year old monitor audios. Subs are original SVS cylinders. All still working perfectly. They outlive their amps.

Just before work started on the theater, I had an accident and can not use a ladder.  So everything in the theater below 6 feet high, my wife and I did, everything over 6 feet my wife did.  We are very happy with the finished theater.

5 speakers along the front, left, center and right are UREI 809's , Wide fronts are Altec Lancing Voice of The Theater's.

Title: Final Home Theater and Media Room tours
Post by: TheWookieIsFurious on February 19, 2022, 02:35:17 PM
I've been asked by those following my home theater build videos over the past couple years to post a current and complete walk through video.

I finally got around to documenting the completed basement build. It took me over two years from design to final build of what you see here and I did it all with my own two hands and it's been a ton of work. Here are some pics of the final areas as well as the full video tour down to the collectibles in my media room.
