You can see my old theater at

www.axiomaudio.com/newf.html

Well, little background. That was our hold house, it was too small, and in a bad area of town. So we looked for something else to get. Took 3 yrs to find something else, and I still don't have a home that I can say that I'm perfectly happy with, but I certainly wanted my theater back. The theater in the older house was barely 2 years old, took me months to put it together. It's funny how much faster the second time around happens.









As with any house project I am not "done". Since this room, while obviously very similar to the old one, but is rather larger there is a few other things I want to do. Fireplace, crown moulding with rope light effect. But there is a bar adjacent to this that I am going to work on first. At least the theater is useable now....and that is the main thing.

On a side note. I hate wiring. That room is wired for 9.1 plus a second center. And the wires for the bar area also run through the same walls for another 5.1 setup. Then there's the pot light wiring, the projector wiring....AHHH, 90% of time comsumed is wiring really.

that screen is 115" for those wondering.

Very nice. I think my wife wants that wall color and suede look. I know I am in for some repainting this winter.

Just lovely.
At some point i will have to post the pics of our setup since the renos 2 years ago, in a location more permanent to provide a link.
I really should send Amie some updates for the Wall of Fame at least.

Very nice, newf! For some reason, I really like the wood frame around the screen. Are you going to stain it?

Beautiful room. How'd you mount your center channel?

Yes, how did you do the paint? That's the effect I'm looking for in my room.

Newf it's great to see you back ... seems like it's been quite a while since we've heard from you, the new digs are lookin' great!

Whenever you state that the room is wired for 9.1 ... is this a new home and did you do the wiring yourself? The paint *again* is quite stunning!
