😂, that's gold. Thanks for your comment. If you are interested. I will be posting clips on tips on how to build the riser the right way. I am new to uploading DYI videos but the feedback has been really encouraging, Cheers.

@@smokindrill I just started wood working myself and am probably 5-10 years away from attempting something like this. But yes, post away, I will definitely keep watching.

Thank you

Thanks a lot!

Thank you 👍

Glad it was helpful! And thanks for the lovely feedback 👍🏻

Thank you so much 🤗

Cheers 👍🏻

Poor Elvis 😅. Thank you and hope to see your video. If it inspires you, I would love to include it in my future videos gladly. Please consider hiring trades if you don't feel comfortable operating power tools. Keep safe, it's not worth losing body parts over a home project.

Thank you so much for your beautiful message ❤❤❤

Thanks for your comment 😊

Thank you for your lovely comment. It's always great to get encouraging feedbacks to push myself for future videos. Please subscribe (and share) if you like to see the next phase of the build with further enhancements. I am new to uploading DYI to RU-vid and would need the encouragement to get things done :).

Thank you 🤙, I hope it has provided you with some ideas! I like your channel, have subscribed keep up the good work!

Thank you 😊👍

Thank you ☺️👍🏻

Thank you ☺️, glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you very much!❤

Great feedback for the next build, thank you 👍🏻. The batts are special wools and free of toxics, it’s a good point to mention in the description!!. After a year of usage I have been lucky not hearing squeaking or echos but your suggestion will improve it for sure. Thanks again.

Thanks bro 😊

thanks a lot Khale joon ❤❤❤

Really appreciate the feedback. Thank you very much!

Thank you and great to hear. Good luck with your project. I will be making modifications and upgrades and will be posting more videos with tips, please state turned 👍🏻.

@@smokindrill I am only 27 years old and still living with my parents. I plan on buying a house sometimes in the next two years and my goal is build myself a dream home theater. I've seen hundreds of builds and designs, and I am ready to pursue my goal.

😂👍🏻. Joo, niinpä näin ☺️

Thank you!!!☺️

Thank you 😊❤

Thanks mate, great to hear that you enjoyed it ❤

@@smokindrill thanks for taking the time to share!

@@SAdamKessler I am glad you enjoyed it 👍

Love the feedback, packed with energy. Please stay tuned for future videos. I am new to uploading videos but hope to get more done frequently if they inspire creativity in others.

Thank you ☺️ 👍🏻

Thanks for the comment. I am still looking at upgrading the sound system. Please stay tuned for a follow up video.

Hi Daniel, thanks for the feedback. I am looking at creating a video and providing details on how to build a riser that might give you some ideas. Please subscribe and stay tuned!👍🏻

Thanks heaps 👍

Thanks Mike and great suggestion! I am new to uploading videos and looking at upgrading the systems. This is a multiphase project, so please tune in for more enhancements on the systems and the aesthetics 👍🏻

Thanks for your informative comment ☺️. Both speakers and the shelving upgrade will be done in the second phase of this build. Please tune in as I will be discussing speaker choices and showing the enhancements I am applying to the shelving. Plus a Star Wars theme.

Where's the second video?

Thanks for watching!

thanks a lot Khale joon ❤❤❤

😂😂, glad the “off” command came in time. You made my day with this command 👍🏻.

😅😂

Hi there, ditto 😅, our dog insists on jumping on the seats so we got the small bean bag seat for him. Regarding your idea of using couches, it’s definitely an option however we wanted reclining seats and these are automatic recliners. I plan to post videos describing the setup, please stay tuned. Cheers.

Thank you Michael, yes will definitely upgrade the speakers. 👍🏻

Thank you, honestly I am not a carpenter by trade, mostly learned through trial and error 👍🏻

No problem, great feedback!! I plan to upload an informational video on some of your questions. The room dimensions and the riser dimensions are mentioned throughout the video (room is 19.6 feet long x 13.1 feet wide & riser is 7.10 feet long, 9.10 feet wide and 1.5 feet high) Regarding budget, it really depends on how much you like to spend on quality. You could be spending anything between 10k-15k for a most basic setup to 50k-70k for a luxury setup (US dollars)! I have probably spent around $20k US so far with a lot of personal time and effort on the labour part that can save 20k by far. I will be upgrading the room further so my budget is not final yet 😊. My tip would be to start searching on different seatings, different equipment and even considering secondhand gear as a starting point 👍🏻.

Hi Barry, thanks for your lovely feedback. I live in Australia and bought it through a website called catch.com.au. Not sure if they ship outside of the country. If you live in a different country then perhaps try searching for something similar! www.catch.com.au/product/oikiture-tv-stand-cabinet-led-entertainment-unit-gloss-wooden-3-drawers-black-black-10127755

@smokindrill okay thank you for replying back 🙂

@@barrycazimir1804 No problem 👍

Thank you for the inspiring feedback. I am absolutely grateful that you have enjoyed it 👍🏻❤️.

Everything starts with a dream and will power. Dream big and have the will to see it through👍🏻.

Cheers, it’s coming up next. Please tune in 😁

Hi Scott, thanks for your comment :). I bought self adhesive acoustic panels. Was a bit brave to order them from AliExpress but tbh I am really grateful for the quality! The stickiness is quite strong as I tried taking one off without success!

Hi Percy, thank you!! I live in Australia and purchased these reclining seats from a local company. Reclining seats are fairly common these days and can even be purchased and shipped from other countries. All the best!!

@@smokindrill thank you for the response. I live in Texas. Looking forward to seeing more of your content.

Thanks Lucy. You've highlighted out a great point. Currently when the lights are turned off, very little light reflected due to the matte finish of the shelving. However, I am planning to further enhance the room and have plans for the shelving area such as darker color, decorative visuals, a nicer bench for the appliances and lighting. I am new to uploading DYI videos but stay tuned and I will be uploading the shelving in a few weeks.

Will also be building Star Wars themes. Will upload them all!

Thank you. They are available through AliExpress

At the time I had a basic avr. I have upgraded to Yamaha and Jensen built in speakers. I have another video coming up soon on the upgrade. Plz stay tuned 😊

Hi there, what sort of A\V integration are you interested in? I am happy to share some of the youtubers I have subscribed to if you are looking for ideas.

@@smokindrill Thank you but I'm not really interested in anything currently. I was in the industry for around 35 years. It just the mainstream sources that my wife watches skirt over A/V and I don't think it is realistic.

Thank you. Room dimensions are available in the video description (in feet and meters).

Please stay tuned for a follow up video on equipment.

Thanks heaps. I think I got it from Amazon. It’d also be available on eBay.

Thank you. You can find them on eBay, amazon or Aliexpress

Hey there, thank you and a great point. Currently it's 5.1 setup. I have moderate speakers installed under the recessed ceiling at the front and the back. They are kind of hidden in the video but still possible to spot :). This was the first phase of the build and in the next phase I will be upgrading the system. I am looking at installing in wall speakers. Please let me know if you have any suggestions! Also stay tuned for future videos on this theatre room as I will be applying a number of aesthetic enhancements too. Cheers.

@@smokindrill Ahh, that's kinda what I figured. Personally, I would advise against in-walls in *most* cases, and against in-ceiling speakers in *all* cases (unless they're Atmos speakers). In-ceiling speakers should never be used for your foundation speakers (ie; non-height speakers) unless absolutely necessary. You'll have terrible imaging. Looking at this room, I would recommend towers (even slender ones) up front where you have the Storm Trooper and Vader statues, with the best center channel you can budget. You have the space there and you'll get the best front sound stage, without the complication and extra work it would take to make in-walls sound good, ie; baffling, toe in, etc. Again, avoid in-ceiling speakers for your front stage. For rears, I would look at mounting them on the brown part of the wall at the back of the room, on the same part of the wall that goes into the book shelf area, and the same wall on the other side, OR on the brown part of the wall next to the back wall where you have your acoustic panels. The former would probably be better as you'll have them a little wider apart. Play around with it a bit before committing. As for speaker brands/models, anything but BOSE lol. Try out a few brands in store that fit your budget. My system is kinda budget, and I have a mix, Polk center and surrounds, Mission Audio towers, Klipsch subs, Pioneer receiver, but because the room is treated and everything is EQ'd, it sounds pretty good. You really did do a fantastic job in that room. Get that audio right and it'll be absolutely killer. Cheers and best of luck. Welcome to the hobby :)

Thanks for the feedback 😊. Great point. We have our favourite blue ray movies on display but mostly use streaming providers. I have subscribed to a large range of providers and have integrated a chromecast TV dongle to fetch content. All the gear support 4K! I do need to upgrade my speakers!

😂👍🏻

Thank you. I purchased them through a reseller in Australia. I recommend searching for resellers on your local area.

Thank you for your great feedback. This was the initial phase of the build and I am exploring in wall speakers for the next phase. To be honest I am getting a decent sound out of these tiny speakers as I have incorporated a Yamaha AV ☺️ but it just doesn’t justify the room setup. Please tune in for the second phase as I have a number of enhancements lined up. Working on a Star Wars theme already. Cheers

That works just fine ❤

It defiantly reduces the chance of echoing. Specially if you have a powerful base.

Never mind I seen the answer in another comment thanks

Should be able to find it on Ebay or Amazon.

I have purchased it from this website (Australian based). www.catch.com.au/

@@smokindrill nice! Found it. Wonder if they ship outside AU lol.

Search for Acoustic panels. I bought them in Australia but I believe you can find them on Aliexpress or eBay!

There is a basic 5.1 installation. I will be upgrading to hopefully 7.1 Dolby atmos. Keep tuned in for the next video ☺️.

I like your comment. It’s not everyone’s cup of coffee ☺️.

@@smokindrill don't miss understand me, that is INCREDIBLE but for a basic DIYer, it's over my head by a Mile lol

No, this was just a hobby build. Stay safe.

Thank you. The info you are after is in the video description 👍🏻

They are called acoustic panels. Available on AliExpress or Ebay

Hi there, in US dollars I would estimate spending around $15K to $20K. My AV is second hand and speakers are basic. I will be upgrading the system and be adding more enhancements. Estimating an additional $10K. Getting it done professionally will be around $60K. Of course these are rough figures and the cost will depend on how much you are willing to spend on quality and brands.

Hi there, here are the dimensions: room is 19.6 feet long x 13.1 feet wide riser is 7.10 feet long, 9.10 feet wide and 1.5 feet heigh.

@@smokindrill thank you for your quick response 🙏🏻🙏🏻

@@chaudharijay1122you are welcome 👍🏻

Nick, it’s a great point. The issue lies with the distance between the screen and the back seats. Before purchasing the screen, I measured from 120” to 130” size screens by marking the wall and realised that the front seats will cover up to 20” of the bottom of the screen. I wish the room was one meter longer to accommodate a big screen. In any case, the 120” looks quite big when in the room. Unfortunately mobile phone cameras don’t capture the scale well. Cheers and thanks for the comment 👌🏻.

@@smokindrill ah, that makes sense. I know the strange struggle of trying to capture the scale of your screen in photos. You really just have to see it in person to appreciate it. I have a 120" pull down screen in my living room, and it's a great screen size, but I would definitely go bigger if I could. The people in the back seats can sit on phone books! 😂📚

@@nickharris5231 ah those back seaters 😄. I will keep your feedback in mind though, I mean I could raise the back row 🤔. Stay safe!
