Hi everyone,
I will be starting my HT room in a few months as soon as my home is complete.
I will have 2000sq ft in the basement to work with 8ft ceilings.
My question is:
1)What is a good width for the HT room?
Reason is it is a walkout basement and on one side of the beams its 18" wide by 55ft long, but that is the side with the sliding door out and the windows and I want to put a bar and pool table room over on that side, plus I want the HT with no windows.
The other side of the basement is 15ft wide but goes down to 11 ft were my front porch is outside.
1)So my choices are 21ft long 11ft wide with no beam in the way
2)13.5ft wide and 20 ft long with the beam going acrossed the ceiling at about 14ft back(right where the projector will be)(beam is 8in thick, so its down to 7ft 3").
Choice #1 would be the best one, there is nothing in the way of the walls or ceiling, but is 11ft wide OK for a 119" widescreen, I am only putting in 2 front recliners and a couch on a riser.
I will be going with the Sharp 12000 and the Yamaha rx-z9 and a SVS sub(not sure on the speakers yet, plus by the time I order the equipment(Sept 2004) there might be a better choice of equipment.
Thanks
Steve
