OK... so my wife and I are getting ready to sell our house and move on to bigger and better things. afterall, it's hard to raise a family in a 1 bedroom :b
So as we are perusing the local market we are keeping an eye open for homes with basements. our idea is maybe a 2-3 bedroom upstairs, with a finishable basement. (this way it doesn't add value to the homes price, but we can use our skills to renovate it into a home theater )
Questions... for those that have done a basement HT, what would you suggest? One thing i'm thinking, is it must be a pretty tall basement, as I think wood floors might be ideal for better sound quality, and therefore the floor will probably raised a little since most basements are cement.
what would you suggest we look for, in size (WxL) and celing height? Any other tips? I'd love to see pictures. we would need room for at least 5 people, but if i can find something with room for like 10, we'd really be sitting sweet.
