Wow...it's awesome! This is a real movie theater. You have big space. I have a spare room in basement (12x14), in which i'd like to use it for movie (30%) and music(70%). So basically, i'd like to turn this room into a getaway place where i can read, listen to music and hang out with friends. Since it has only one small window, i think i'll go with a lighter color ( not white though).

Thanks BigWill.
I have 2 SVS 20-39 PCi subwoofers, one in each corner in the front.
The AC is a ductless mini-split system, it is not vented to the outside but it is a 2 part system like a central ac unit. The indoor unit requires a 3 inch hole through the wall for the refrigerent lines and electrical wires that run to the outside unit. It is very quiet, even when I have it on max it is much, much quieter than my Sony projector.

Thanks bigjohn.
Unfortunately we don't have a lobby so we have to keep the popcorn maker in the kitchen

Thank goodness you don't have an obsession with amusement parks... I can picture the ferris wheel in the basement now.
That's one sweet (and complete) home theater you have there.

Thanks audiofan.
Our theater is 15.5ft by 25.5ft. The 111 inch by 69 inch screen is 32 inches from the side walls so we do not get any reflected light washing out the image on the screen.
My feelings are that you can go with virtually any color you desire as long as it is a flat finish and there is sufficient distance between the screen and the side walls.
I haven't listened to much music in recent years but now that I have my Axiom speakers I am enjoying sitting in the theater with the lights low and playing music.

The staggered seating is such a GREAT idea. I'd have never thought of doing that, but it makes such sense! DUH! A really nice setup.
OK guys! I vote for a meet at KOSletten's place. Whadaya think?

Actually, that's a great idea, Jack. He probably has like 11 bedrooms - if not, we can set up tents in the front yard.
