Ultimate Home Theater

Yes, it's a real home theater that was custom built underground (basement). It comes complete with concession stand, marquee, and box office. Equipment includes three DVD players, a JVC QX-1 projector, and 25hz woofer drivers in Dunlavy SC-IVs. This may be an oldie but it's definitely worth taking another look at. Lots of pics after the jump. [AVSForum - ShoutIt]

"The theater is 16' tall at the front (slab to concrete ceiling), and 11 1/2' tall at the back. About 21' wide and 29' long. This was an addition to the house - we basically dug this huge hole in our front lawn and partially into the driveway, while also gutting a study on the main floor. From the main floor, you have steps down to the basement where you see a sitting area where the marquee is and thenonto a concession area and theater. So the superstructure of the theater is a 12" to 18" complete concrete shell."

Although this fulfills all the dreams I have about having a kick ass home theatre, this is a bit too extravagent for my tastes.

I don't know... Those pictures are so unreal for me. It looks like it was made in 3DS MAX or something like that.

Beautiful and stylish. I love how they emulated perfectly the old gaslamp theaters. If you're going to do something on a scale like this, yo have to do it right and they certainly did. Bravo!

well it is a bit gaudy for my taste but if someone can fit and afford something on this scale in their house i guess it would fit with the rest of the house I would've gone with a sleeker more minimalist modern approach

A Personal Movie Theater What you think this is? Right, a movie theater. No lets call it a personal movie theater because it is located underneath the front loan of AVSForum member who apparently has loads of cash and a perfect dream. The guy runs his movie theater with JVC ...

"A MINIMALIST APPROACH WOULD BE FAR EASIER TO CLEAN"; HEY, WHEN YOU HIT AN AGE PASS "STILL LIVING WITH YOUR MAMA" I AM SURE YOU WILL ALL DEVELOP A TASTE OF YOUR OWN AND NOT SOMETHING RESEMBLING WHAT YOU CAN BUY FROM IKEA... AND ALSO... WHY DO YOU PEOPLE CARE SO MUCH ABOUT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE DO WITH THEIR MONEY ANYWAYS?

it prolly cost no more then 100,000 grand for asthetics of that room, its nothing special, i see shit like that thats laid to waste with some of the home audio shops here in phoenix can do, when the systems themselves cost half a million... you can't even see the sound system in that place it just likes like a really drink palace.. lame....

now that is nice. Most home cinemas are just plain rooms with stacked seats. That is the whole shebang. I dont agree that much on the overall style, but it would be cool to have it.

Dude who has done it, you are really brilliant and every frame just carries me away. It looks amazing but does it really have the real unimagineable acoustics for that kind of ambience.......
