Another newbie

[phoenix]

Hi Everyone. I'm a newcomer here.

I've been lurking here for a while and I can't wait to get to work on my project with the help from the shack members.

I am in the process of working with an architect on a renovation of our house. The remodel will include a dedicated media/game room. I'm pretty much starting from scratch in terms of gear and knowledge on design. I've got decent AV gear currently but I will be adding all new equipment in the new room.

I have as much room as I want in terms of footage, but I have no idea where to start as far as determining how many square feet I need.

I am trying to add a 109" projection, two rows of seating, pool table, game table and a bar. I will also be building a 150 gallon saltwater tank into the wall with a room behind it for maintenance.

Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks

Mike

Hi Mike and welcome to the Shack!

Sounds like you might want to check out our Home Theater Systems forum for recommendations on putting together a system... be sure to let us know a budget. You will probably also want to check out our Home Theater Design and Construction forum.

I for one will be looking forward to seeing your progress.
