Hello from Snellville, GA (Atlanta)


I've been lurking for a few months now and just realized I've started posting this week without ever introducing myself. Oops. Breach of etiquette number 1!

So...

I'm a pretty avid DIY'er. Partly because it irks me to pay for stuff I can do better myself. But primarily I just get a kick out of creating something where there was nothing before.

My wife just let me build a new house for us (she gave me pretty much free reign - apparently that's quite unusual?!), so I took advantage of the opportunity to have the basement built with 9' foot ceilings and floor trusses so that most of the space is clear to 9'. In that space (~2200 sq ft) will go my new home theater and a few other rooms.

I'm no theater junkie; I just want a nice place to watch a movie now and again. And I'd prefer not to 'do over' what I can 'do right the first time'. I'm really looking forward to the information on this site.

Thanks
Andy

We'll see! Certainly, there's some concern that you may be right...

Hey Andy.
Buckhead here, welcome aboard. Like Darren said once you get started it's like an addiction. Kind of like started to modify a car, there's always something newer,better or that you just have to have.

Thumbs up Re: Hello from Snellville, GA (Atlanta)


Hi Andy, and welcome to the forum. I bet you'll have some interesting stories and ideas to tell about your HT design and build once the house is completed. I like your "get it right the first time" mindset .
