OK, some I'm on my way to finishing a home heater area in my basement and I need a critique and some advice on a few things. I've just started finishing this area, so I've still got a ways to go. Here's some general info...
Room size: 24' L x 17' W x 8.5' H. 8' opening on one wall and a 4' opening on the other.
Engineering wood flooring (wifes choice),but I will be adding some big area rugs.
Furniture: Getting rid of the stuff in the pics and will be replaced with a sectional and chair.
Here's where I need some help...
Sub woofer: I haven't chosen one yeat, but my plan was to buy two SVS-12 plus subs. These will be located in the area below the display on either side of the center. Should I go with one 15"? My sub budget is about $1200. I'd like to get a front firing sub-woofer becasue of the enclosure. Each sub enclosure size is 21H x 23W x 22D. The whole bottom enclosure will have speaker material over the front (shown on the left)
Speakers: Paradigm mini-monitors. I'll be buying a CC-270 to match the fronts. Bi-pole speakers on the surrounds and Paradigm atoms for the rears. Thoughts about the locations for the fronts?
Display: Haven't chosen one yet. I was thinking about a 65" plasma? Thoughts? The display area will be framed out flush with the front of the display with speaker grill material.
Receiver: Probably a Denon, but not sure on the model.
Acoustical treatments: I was going to add some sound foam behind the display to deaden things a bit, but with the wood floors I think I need some more. Any other ideas.
Thanks in advance for any input.
