|
|
I finally put pics of our theater in my album. This is what can be done in a triple wide mobile home. Of course this also requires a lot of GAF.
The main Theater room is 17x28(living room) and the side computer room is 12x14(dinning room).
There is two widows behind the Barco in the front and a sliding glass door behind the back curtains. I also have the same style curtains that close off the entrance to the kitchen. It is about 95% light controlled in mid day. 
Check them out and let me know what you think.

That room is huge. Man, you have a LOT of equipment! Can you post some details on how you mounted your 4600 and 2600? Your efforts really make me want to get my 3600 off the floor.

I tell you, no little people are going to be getting up to the chairs on the riser. I think I saw a spot where you could fit in 2 more speakers. Your a nut.

The 2600 is held up by 4 pieces of 3/8" stainless steel thin wall tubing. With a lag screw through the end of each one straight into the roof studs. An aluminum plate is attached to the bottom of the tubes. The 2600 is attached to the plate in slotted holes to allow for adjustment.
That is the same mount that held up the 3600 before I changed to the 4600 in the theater.
The 4600 is held up with ONLY TWO 5/16x3 lag screws. They are in the L brackets at the top of the black mount, one on each side straight into the roof studs. The black mount came with the 4600. I have two pieces of the same tubing used on the 2600 coming off the back corners to stabilize it. They have one #10x1" screw in each.

I could not have a riser in front of the back row. People would walk into the blades of the rear ceiling fan. I do not wish to get rid of the fan,it is a great help with keeping the 4600 cool. The hot air does not build up around it.
I am looking to add a couple more amps. More wattage!! 
Oh and I have NO NEED for butt kickers. The 21" is mounted under the back row firing up.  It vibrates both the back and middle rows. Of course the front eight 10" subs help out too.

Holy cow! That's a bunch of equipment! Do the lights dim when everything kicks on? I bet they do. 
Any more and you might have to increase the service to you house! Seriously, have you ever checked it?
Looks like you certainly have a lot of fun with this hobby...cool.

Maybe your computer is having problems. Or your connection through your ISP. I have had mine do the same thing before.

Cliff,Curt Thanks.
This obsession of mine MIGHT be the reason for $250-$430 electric bills.
I will take a pic of the front right side with the speaker moved so you can see more of the equipment. I have been collecting equipment for a long time to get it this far.

The heating bills are drastically lower than the cooling bills.

that shot of all the speakers reminds me of "A Clockwork Orange" very cool, I want to come over to your house with a clamp meter and a SPL meter...I am guessing both numbers would be very impressive. Looks great.

It is rather loud outside sometimes.
It is a good thing I am not in a development. I have 400' of woods between me and the neighbor on one side and the other side they are about 200' away. I have about 1000' of woods between me and the people behind me. They are just starting to build across the street but they will be 500'away.
