We did sound proofing for GSC cinema before. Doing one now for another cap kapak cinema in KK. rolleyes.gif Remember to subtract 150mm from your walls for the sound proofing thumbup.gif That means your room is about 300mm(1 foot) smaller on the sides... whistling.gif

But after that you can kaw kaw turn up the volume and the other room also cant hear. But dont forget your floor and ceiling... if not the vibration from the floor will go down and if you in condo then the fella downstairs will vmad.gif you...

You need to sound proof the ceiling and floor(if you not on the ground) too... sound proofing is the most expensive part of the project...

I say screw that part and let your neighbours enjoy yout HT too.... whistling.gif

I bet the soundproofing job would definitely cost a bomb to do so. Since sound is being transferred through structural beams / pillars of a house, it is not an easy task to isolate it.

Taking the cost into consideration, I dream of building a detached HT room on the empty land of a semi-d house. No one will complain tongue.gif (go n buy lottery tics now)

i guess this cinema project need to do on staggered basis, considering the costs..

lets start with the main thing first. Projector and Screen..Quite a lot of brands, carrying with different features in the market..latest one equipped with HD thingy, that makes me more blurr..i'm not into something high-end thingy, but absolutely not looking at lower end type, middle type system probably..

Sound system will be my priority no 2, coz once i bought projector and screen, my current home theater can be used temporarily..

Yes, i 'll dedicate a room for this project, next to my kitchen..

Thanks to recliner sofa, its already in my list..not a priority at this moment..

for sound proofing, i did survey how jamming studio setup their sound proofing..i think i can make theirs as my reference..

since this mini cinema, i'm not expecting 100% similar quality with those real cinema..

thanks guys..for the projector and screen, what is minimum/ideal features to look at?

my 2 cents...

if you are serious abt home cinema, first phase spend on your room design first..if budget permits, hired one qualify sound engineer which can design such a setup(some may do it part time for you--side income.. tongue.gif ) Room design is very important as if you have a good room setup, chapalaang system will sounds like a million dollar system. Without knowing your room, how are you going to know which system to purchase?

Room renovation you will only do once while equipment wise you will definitely upgrade along the way due to poison by forummers here, or the self injected ones drool.gif

HT equipment seller will tell you they can design for you but i say they are not qualify....

happy hunting
