What our budget is first is easy to explain, we are not wealthy, we bought a new modular home no basement no garrage 1850 sq ft and have the room of 16 by 13.5 to work with.
We are moving in to it in mid January 06. I have now only 2500 to get the project started as this will be a room that is going to be a hobby on the side building it and when its done that is when it is done lol.
I will have approx 1000 to 1500 a month every month to put into that room so I can only do each month what I can acomplish with that budget till it gets done.
I should also get approx 7000 back in taxes this year so that will go into the room when that comes also.
What we would like to end up with and what we will end up with may be two different thing but here is what we would like to end up with:
A dedicated theater room, fixed screen hopefully a screen size 16:9 and a size minimum of approx. 4ft by 8ft. We would like to have seating for 6 to 8 if possible in the room so we have to decide the type of seating that will hopefully allow that in the space we have. I would like to have lighting that I can dim all at once together to a very low ambient like the theater almost total darkness but a very slight light possibly some rope lighting on floor etc and sconces dimming on wall. A projector that will allow that many seats that is viewable at the range we will be in on a screen the size we want.
Sound in a way has no budget what I can buy monthly is what I can buy till done is all. Speaker size now after reading is irrelevent as is sub size. I dont want to blow my neighbors off the foundation having them call cops all the time but want as you say good quality sound that is loud enough to impress us of course as well as company but no need to blow the walls apart. Also my wife says she would like to have a panel somewhow if possible with fiber obtic stars that I dont know about yet.
So there is what we are looking to acomplish in a nut shell and how much monthly we can spend to get there. Any ideas fire away.
