My current HT project is near completion and I decided to go with an acoutically transparent screen. As the speakers go behind this, the screen is not hung on a wall, but framed, and self-standing.
I then decided to buy a motorized, remote control tack system so that I can buy curtains and have them automatically open up like a theater.
My problem is that I never anticipated the price tag! I also have an unusual shape. You can see from the attached picture that the ceiling has two levels as there is a boxed-border.
So I was thinking of hanging the track, spanning from the lower ledge to the other with 2X4's supporting above. Then I would require 90" long drapes that would need to be at least 100" wide each! I would also have to hang a valence to cover up the high part of the ceiling above where the track will be mounted.
Anyone know where I can get affordable drapes, or should I buy fabric and start sewing?
