My New Home theatre project


TurboNova

Recommended Posts

Well it took me a lot of research and while to collect all the components but I am excited that it is now about 90% complete. I have a finished basement and decided to use a portion of it and install a drop ceiling and do some can lights.

 

The screen is an elite fixed frame 100". Mitsu projector, onkyo receiver, Klipsch surrounds, Klipsch Floor standers, Klispch sub 12, hooked to ps3 for blue ray and then my HD cable box. Then some theatre seating. Still have a few more things to do.

Sweet setup, I love Klipsch but damn that center looks small next to that screen... lol. ;)

 

What towers are those? I have the RF-82's and the RW-12D sub,the rear dipoles and the center. I got them when the GF was at Best Buy. They had an accommodation from the factory, $999 for all the speakers shipped to the door no tax or shipping. Just for reference the towers alone were $999 retail.

lol yup, all work in progress, at first I wanted to carpet the floor but I dont know now, I do want to work on sound dampening to get the best acoustics.

 

You don't need carpet, when we bought our house I thought I would need carpet, I was wrong, it sounds better down here than it did in the APT. I did however put a rug down.

Thanks, yeah the towers are the r-52 they were expensive but like a all klipsch stuff, I think very worth it. The sub I think is my favorite, until this setup I have never had a quality sub.

 

I would like a synergy center channel down the road. But it already sounds amazing, so not sure if I will do much more.

Yeah I waited two years piecing everything together just to get what I wanted. Its totally worth it to have nice speakers, they will last forever too. Now my friend in Cleveland has a $30,000 Paradigm setup with a 4000 watt sub. What pisses me off/makes me envious about this, is that every time I go up there I am amazed at how much better they really do sound, even though I consider my setup "expensive".

walls are a neutral tone color the pics did not come out right. I am more of a minimalist, I hate clutter so the walls will stay the same as far as more stuff hanging. I wanted to do carpet but leaning towards a nice accent area rug.

 

I am planning on building a home theatre pc now.

I am with you on the walls. The flooring even with a rug I think just feels so uninviting especially if you are going for a relaxed feel. But to each their own. Looks good.

Very nice!

 

I have been piece mealing my home theater together too. Have all my surround sound set up (Paradigm) and had Carada custom make a screen for me to fit on my wall...Still can't make up my damn mind on a projector! The more i read, the more i confuse myself on what I want :lol:

That looks killer. There is mine that I did last year, it's a 67" samsung, and a Bose theatre system. I did all the work myself. This was a small part in our remodel. We gutted the hole house and added on, as well as a 1350 sqft garage.
