I spend a LOT of time in my garage and the craigslist JBL 4800s Ive been using out there have been alright but the positioning requirements out there really ruined the sound VS when I was finishing the garage and had them on my bench, pulled out from the walls (particularly before sheetrock went...

Just bought a home and not really too experienced with projector screens (have a 65 inch flat screen in home now) Best Buy Magnolia came over today to take a look and they did not recommend it due to the fact the ceilings were so low but recommended an 80 inch TV. Reason being is that if...

Hi, First post here on the forum or any forum for that matter! Anyways, I'd like someone to chime in regarding the following questions. I will be using the room to mix mostly but of course enjoy listening to some tunes as well. 1. When measuring the rooms FR, does the software take into...

Trying to figure out how large of a screen I can fit. The geometry is a little weird becasue it's a finished attic and the roofline "cuts off the corners". Here's a photo (ignore my mocked up fake skylights - those will come later). The flat part of the ceiling is 7' 9" if you couldn't read...

I have been asked to install a home theater system in a room with a 14 foot ceiling. With a room that tall, where would be the best place to install the speakers? Would it be better to have floor standing speakers, or in ceiling of in wall speakers?

Hey guys, This is probably directed at Prof or Cinema Mad, but has anyone seen any fibre optic threads for sale in Australia? I'm weighing up whether to try a DIY star ceiling and am trying to source the stuff locally. If I can't find anything locally i'll probably look overseas. Cheers, Simon

My contractor is studding the walls in my basement as we speak for a new theater room. However, the ceilings (beacuse of pipes) will only be 7 feet tall. Will this cause problems when mouting my new PT-ae2000 from the ceiling? I am onlt looking to install a 92-96" screen.

To maintain access to a variety of pipes and ducts, I'm planning a drop ceiling of some sort in my basement theater. How are the acoustics of such ceilings? I plan on packing between the rafters with fluffy fiberglass, and also stuffing more on top of the ceiling panels. I'm looking at black...
