One nice feature of your theater is the two center seats do not share an armrest. That is a perfect compromise vs every seat having a separate armrest

A lotta work went into this. You used double stud walls, then anchored directly to the floor joists above. This short circuits the isolation of the stud walls and transfers vibrations directly to the floor above. The worst, hopefully your homeowner's insurance has a generous mold remediation policy. You created a double vapor retarder against your exterior foundation walls. It is a bad idea to place a vapor retarder on sub grade walls, and in many places, it is against building codes. Then ya went and used faced fiberglass batts. creating a double vapor retarder to trap the moisture that will eventually diffuse in from the soil. Forensically, I have seen this accidentally done by homeowners more than once. Fiberglass is visibly saturated, and the clue something was wrong was liquid water coming out of the base of the wall onto the floor...not a leak.

My inspector instructed me to score all of the vapor barrier surrounding the insulation so that condensation wouldn't be able to build up as you described. Also, while I did connect the walls to the floor joists above, I made sure there was no wood on wood contact. It is only connected with the screws, which, that will still transfer some vibrations, I felt it would minimize it quite a bit. Also, every point in the theater room in which a hard surface was made to be in contact with another hard surface, I put construction adhesive in between to help absorb some of the vibrations. Clearly you have a lot of experience in this regard, much more than me, and I appreciate the feedback but hopefully my explanation helps you see what I at least was trying to do to avoid some of the issues you are describing.
@highmodulus588 Жыл бұрын
Soon as I spotted the stud to joist connection I shook my head. I made that exact mistake in my first theater. All the bass went right up into the bedroom above. Second theater…room in a room, with completely separate ceiling structure connected to the theater walls…works phenomenally. Good luck

Ahhhhhh!! you didn't fill the platform with insulation to prevent any reverb, or echo, from the subwoofer frequencies.
@LTI 2 жыл бұрын
That's intentional because I have a subwoofer underneath the platform, I wanted it to cause vibrations under the seats to add to the immersive experience.

Nice, thanks for sharing. I was interested in your plan for the sloped ceiling, but I don't think it's quite as obvious on the video how it looks. Do you have 3 flat sections, with the lowest over the rear seats? And then do you have a sloping section that runs next to those, from the back of the room to the front? And yes, all info on your gear (projector, amp, speakers, screen, choice of seats) is good to share :)
@LTI 2 жыл бұрын
Each section over each row of seats is angled down about 5 degrees towards the front so as to make it appear that the ceiling is lowest over the front row, following the grade of the platform from highest to lowest, when in actuality, the ceiling is at the same height above all 3 rows of seats. I think I will do a separate video going over my equipment since that has been suggested.

Did you incorporate any acoustic treatments?
@LTI Жыл бұрын
Like what? I worked briefly with a sound engineer to help with reducing sound bleed in other parts of the house but I'm not sure what else you may be referring to, I'm not super familiar with what that entails.
@northeastcorals Жыл бұрын
@@LTI I was referring to acoustic treatments to treat the quality of the acoustics within the room rather than noise bleed, for example installing absorbers & diffusers to help with reflections etc in the appropriate amounts & areas can make a world of difference to your audio. Although it's easiest to add them during the construction stage it can also be done afterwards, it just usually requires more work & compromise.

Hes done some brilliant content with Audioholics & others. Most agree treating the room is a game changer & an OK sound system in a treated room can sound better that mega expensive syatem in an untreated room.

@LTI 2 жыл бұрын
@@BIGBASSSAMA_4 The insulation plus the sound board underneath the drywall does a pretty good job at minimizing the sound bleed-through. You can still hear it upstairs but it's pretty subtle despite the sound system being turned up quite loud. When I step outside my house though, I don't hear a thing, completely quiet so my neighbors will never hear me blasting my movies. I think some of the sound I hear upstairs may come from the back wall since only the side within the theater room has drywall, I'm thinking it will help dampen the sound more when I finish drywalling the other side.
