I need help from those of you with a basementplex
OK, after 3 years, we are finally finishing the basement. We are putting drywall all around, carpet, and either a drop or drywall celing. My first question is:
do I split this rather large room in half for better sound out of my Paradigm reference setup? I have a Marantz SR7000, and I dont want to do the basement and not have it loud enough.
I plan on insulating the ceeling, so that isnt an issue, but the type of ceeling to get is. What do you think is a good idea to go with, a drop or drywall? If I did drywall I could do some recessed lighting which would look great.If I do a drop, then I have access to things all of the time.
I have been wanting to do this for awhile,(thats why I bought my 55'HDTV) and its finally happening. I dont want to get anything wrong, so If any of you can help that would be great.
Also, If you can think of other ideas, or fun stuff to do with a theater, that would be great too! ex. It might be cool if you did recessed lighting(I know I already mentioned this, but I cant think of anything else) so Please help!!!
Thanks again, Fred
