I'am looking for some things and wonder if you guys could help me out.
Lighting controls. I want to be able to use a remote to not only turn on/off light, but dim. Is this possible with say...a pronto as a controller?
Racks. I know you've guys probably have heard this 100000000 times, but where can I get a really nice rack (not of the silicone flavor
. I'am looking for an enclosed one with a glass door if possible. The finish I'am looking for is real wood.
Cables. Say I want to have my equipment in the back of the HT room, and the TV in the front...do they actually make cables like Svideo, component (hdtv) this long?
Power. I have plenty of plugs, but the electrician is coming next week to install sconces....is there anything I should have him check/add etc?
2 Row Platform. I want to have the back row elevated, as in stadium seating. I don't really want to have the entire entrance elevated, but just the couch and enough room for comfortable movement...basically a "raised" section for the backrow and not necessarilly an entire elevated floor. I was thinking about making a "box" from 6x2's. Enough to give the couch and good legroom at a 6' elevation. Any problems/suggestions you see here?
3. I want my hometheater to go with a VERY modern, but vintage look. Leather chairs, contemporary fixtures, etc. But also antique popcorn machines etc. Do you guys know of any place that sells "old sytle" movie theater accessories? I'am looking for movie post frames that have "Now Showing". Also intrested in vitage looking soda machines, etc.
4. Chairs. As I stated I'am leaning towards black leather sofa/chairs for comfort, but what do you think about actual movie seats? I can fit at least twice as many people in the room with the more condensed movie seats as opposed to big leather furniture which I would have for looks, but ESPECIALLY comfort. Which do you prefer? Comfortable leather or vintage, more people movie chairs?
Thank you for any suggestions or comments.
