Elill, discussion is very welcome. I might just learn something from it myself.

I know you are trying to build a theater, but what about more pics of that huge fish tank?

I posted this elsewhere but may as well bung it in here as well ...



The idea is to have low backed chairs to keep out of the way of the audio, but with a narrow head rest for when I want to kick back and relax.

The nearest I've come up with so far is this made in Brissy ...



by Aussie Comfort Lounges

The main reason for wanting someone close is so I can visit them to sort out all the details, and make sure they're right !!

Peter,

You've got me confused ... none of them have a reduced width head rest ? Or was your post directed at Dave who's thread we are happily hijacking !!

Some more updates,

These are of the filters for the fish tank upstairs behind that littel sound proof door,



More pipes than one cares to count.





And we finally have fabric on some panels!!!



Some pics of the panels.



Sorry about the plastic, but it is still pretty dusty down there, you will all just have to wait for the big unveiling!

Those filter pipes are serious business.

You are making quick progress and it looks very good. Do you have to tell the 15 workers to stand behind you while you take the pictures?

If this is a fresh water tank what kind of fish are those? There are some really colorful fish in there for fresh water.

I've had several tanks over the years, never getting over 75 gallons though, at best I could be called "novice" when it comes aquariums. Yours is a beaut! I've wanted for a long time to take a crack at a 200g brackish aquarium, but never had the money.

A bad arse aquarium to match a bad arse theater.

I just got a call from the carpet guy and he is slated in to lay the carpet on Monday. Once that goes in I should be pretty close to being able to put on the first bit of music in the room.

Just remembered , what is everyone using for strip lights for their accent lighting?

I found some 13mm diameter LED lights that are spaced 1" apart and have a watt rating of 18w per 1m on the net.


Yesterday I threw up some Christmas LED rope lights around the sofits and they did not light up the ceiling nearly enough. What is the minimum wattage per meter that I would need to light up the ceiling?

These are superb chairs.....its pretty much what I'd get for my room if we were doing it today....I'd get the individual ones though....2 nice chairs table in between.....purdy

Edit: Peter M, the only things I can find with headrests like that are dentist recliners.....some dont look half bad but custom would be cheaper as they have lifts etc in them. The other option is Recaro's but you'd need seperate foot rests and the look isn't for everyone

Do a search on ebay for "rgb led strip 44 -flash 10m" and see what you get. Then go on youtube and do a search for "rgb led strip 5050" to see how bright they are and how they work. I have ordered 10M about 9 days ago, but they come from China so it might be another week. I will be "reviewing" them on my thread. For $90 they come with the LED strip, remote, controller and power supply. You'll be able to change colors, dim, flash and color-sweep using an IR remote. You could then program that into your super remote/Harmony if you get one.

If I could get some LED's with an IR remote, that would tie in perfectly with what I am going with in my other lighting. I will do the search for sure. Thanks.

Great room. The catalysts look huge - can't wait to see the subs in place.

I don't know if I missed it, but you give some details on the acoustic cloud? Thanks.

I really like the way the room is looking. Those catalysts are quite impressive.

What do you think about the mounting bolts for the sound treatment panels? I'm trying to decide how I want to mount mine. I would like a secure, non rattling, and removable method. I don't think seeing your mounting bolts looks bad at all.

The catalysts are huge!

They are made with 1" OC 703 and have pegboard under that, followed by the GOM. They are mounted 1" from the ceiling.

Actually, they look quite good. They are bolts with button covers on them. This way they are completely rattle free.
