We've just successfully purchased a new (old) home around the corner from our little 3 bedroom home of 10 years. We plan to knock down the old structure and with the help of an architect build a modern home that will cater for our young family of 5 as it grows. I had grand plans of a separate dedicated home theatre room however my wife has sternly poo poo'd it. As I thought divorce would be an over reaction im consigned to the fact that I need a different solution. The compromise is we will stay married
and I will be allowed to turn an unsuspecting lounge/TV room into an impressive dual purpose home theatre/lounge area. The things i'm going to miss out on are dedicated seating, avoiding light coming in during the day (I will not often use it during the day anyway), and I may have to resort to a 60" LCD screen instead of say 130" projected image
Sound isolation will be needed as I need t o make sure I can use it without waking the kids and wife at night time, although im not sure yet what the complications will be as we are only starting the design phase for the house.
My plan is to house the subs in custom joinery, along with all speakers so that nothing can be seen. I'd be happy to spend around $15,000 (Aussie dollars) for the 5 channels of speakers, and probably then looking at dual sealed subs (would need to be less than $8,000 for both). Suggestions would be great in regard to what speakers you would buy.
