I am looking for some step lighting and perimeter lighting for my seating riser. Preferably led. Anyone have any suppliers and/or pictures of successful installs of this? Thanks.

Hi all ... my first post here... My room is very bad in terms of acoustics. See my gallery here http://www.blu-ray.com/community/gallery.php?member=bizmord One thing that's helping is a big sectional rug that covers 70% of the room floor. My walls are bare, there is absolutely no acoustic...

How do I calculate the size of the inlet openings for the front of the riser? My riser will be constructed out of 2x8's at the perimeter with the middle "joists" being 2x6's spaced at 12" on center. I'll fill the cavities with 6" paperfaced fiberglass batts "hung" from the top of the framing...

here in the bottom part of my riser. I couldnt find 2 x 12's so im using 2 x 6's. I am framing out both sections then laying the other on top and securing them. My question is this. I ported the bottom part but block it in, and also going to port the top section in front as well...

I am still working on my theater build and I will have to build a riser in a month or so and wanted some input from the pros on what I should be looking for as far as height and size and any other thing that I dont know about building a riser. Thanks

So I have decided to build a riser for my second row since I decided to open my room up all the way for my needs. The room tappers down to about 11' 6" so that is how wide the riser will be. Now how deep should it be, and tall should it be. My front row will be a nice leather sectional(not...

I need to raise my futon which is pulling 2nd row duty in my HT. I'm leaning towards a moveable riser that sits on top of my carpet, 12 inches high. Instead of a conventional riser, or subs in a riser, I'm wondering if it would work well to build 2 subs, place them side by side, and sit the...

I'm about to start building my riser and have been reading about riser construction and just wanted some advice. My ceiling is about 8' and I've determined that I need a 13" height riser with the help of people here and Roman. The calculator I used said 11' 1/8" but Roman says to add 2' to it...

ALMFamily gave me some help with this earlier which is fab. In the directions for construction of the riser I found They suggest using rubber feet under the joists, however their riser was to go onto an existing timber floor where as mine is to be built onto a solid concrete floor so does any...

I have read all that I can find in the forums about construction of risers and the only thing that I have come up with is to use roofing felt on the concrete floor to protect the lumber. I know that i could always use PT lumber but I would rather not. Does anyone have any...

I'm in the middle of constructing my riser. Here are the stats: Front row: 4 seats Back row: 3 seats My plan is to eventually have all seats have some sort of tacticle shaker. I need to know what my speaker wiring needs to be before I seal up the box. Yes, I know I'll likely need two...

Hey Guys, I just got my back row of seating and I'm getting ready to start the fun design process with my riser. I've determined how far I am away from the screen, and all of the necessary stuff to use the riser calculator. I'm kind of struggling here with all of the details, so hopefully...
