you should swap that old projector now for a laser tv, much better picture and probably won't need to change much. believe me your awsome shed deserves a new laser tv
Adults should be afforded places as nice or nicer then parents to fix up then invite them over. Dont fall for this communial livings bs bc they underplanned

If I ever buy a house without a basement or dedicated area for a theater, I will be doing this. Home theater outside the living area is super smart. You could watch a loud movie anytime and not bother the others in the home 👍🏻
Well if you decide to build one in your basement soundproofing is a must this eliminates the issue of disturbing everyone else in your home and your neighbors
@@AdamKaiser. my current theater has R31 insulation, double drywall and sound panels. The nice thing about the shed theater is it’s separate from the house.
I can’t believe how much work went into this mate and considering you hadn’t done anything like that before and you were designing and making stuff as you went along is super impressive. Bet you had a HUGE sense of achievement when it was finished. Awesome job well done, love from England ❤️
@@crunch9362 I had never built anything like this. When I was growing up my dad built our house and they helped him do that so I had some basic carpentry knowledge as a kid but I’ve never done anything on the scale when I did this project. I spent a lot of time on TH-cam watching other experts videos to figure out how to do it.

This. Is. INSANE!!!!!!! I am blown away by this projects and the results! You should be so proud of what you have accomplished here!! I would be thrilled to build something like this myself one day
I have a much lower budget version of this in my home and every night I get the old “can you turn that down please, the kids are sleeping” from upstairs. I need to purchase a larger property and do this exact same thing. Very awesome!!
This is one of the coolest builds I've ever seen on TH-cam!! I love how technical and descriptive you were behind the step by step process!! It looks awesome and fantastic honestly!! I'm so glad this video was recommended to me!! Very cool to see this beast being built from the start to its finish and it is very functional and aesthetically pleasing!! AWESOME and INSANE and EPIC Home Theater!!
I built a home theatre room in my basement for the family to spend time. It got used 10 times in 5 years. Finally took it all down this summer and turned it into a gym. It gets used every day.
We use our home theater a few times a week now and I’ve already converted my home office into a home gym which rarely gets used. 😂 To each their own. 👍🏻
I AM BLOWN AWAY MAN!! Easily one of the best examples of a Home Theatre I've ever seen. Watching the video, I can see the incredible hard work and love poured into this project and it's way better than some of the small screen multiplex rooms near me.The LED lighting gives it so much ambiance. What you guys have successfully built is a true escapism venue, MAGNIFICENT WORK !!
I never comment on this kind of stuff, but I wanted to stop in a say; Thank you for explaining everything you did and why. Right now I own a very small remodeling company but I'd love to be in similar shoes as you one day. I really appreciated you explaining every step from the sound proofing behind the screen to the vibration dampener on the projector. I also respect the "overkill" on some of the carpentry. Never hurts to "overproof"!
I did this in my living room. Sometimes I have the shades open and some neighbors have told me I have a huge tv! I use an Optoma laser projector that gives off a brilliant clear picture. I use a soundbar under the screen with surround sound speakers for audio.
Looks good. For future reference, the sheet rock needs to be about a 1/2” above the floor in case of water, no joints in line with the door. Have it split over the door if necessary. Opening and closing on the door will cause cracks on the seam from the stress.
@@j.jjr.6217 My point was that it doesn't matter if it's a shed or not. I wouldn't even know what they would even classify it as. I doubt they would just call it a storage shed...lol
Man I love going to the theater and I'm blown away at your creation, this was super bomb bro. You can for sure turn this into a business! Amazing 👏 job👏
I love going to the movies!! Even when I was a kid, every Sunday the family would watch a few movies. So, it became something we all loved to do and still do now. I love the idea of a home theater setup, like this! Makes me want to go out and build a giant shed and convert it into a movie theater! This to me is beyond cool!!
This is really impressive and practical. Think about it, you have sound isolation from the rest of the home and total control over your design. Awesome! Wish I could do something like that but I don't have the room for it.
When building a studio, listening space or home theatre from scratch you can actually negate having to use acoustic panels at all. If you use high quality insulation in the walls like OC703 you can use acoustically transparent cloth (like you used to cover the speakers) to cover the entire walls rather than sheetrock, essentially turning all of your walls into acoustic panels. If you use cloth on the ceiling too and some sort of metal mesh to hold the insulation you can even turn your ceiling into a giant bass trap. Then instead of building absorption panels to hang on the walls, you can build diffusion panels to add diffused, controlled reflections back into the room so it doesn’t sound uncomfortable and borderline anechoic.
@@kiwibird8441 If it is installed correctly and fastened to the ceiling beams it will not rattle at all. The only possible acoustic issue would be resonance, but if there is acoustic insulation resting on the metal mesh that will absorb and mute any resonances. You could also just use extra wooden beams to hold the acoustic insulation in place if you are worried about metal rattling or resonating, but it will add more hard surfaces and therefor more reflections.
Kevin another option that is quick and easy and perfect for DIY - blackout curtains! I used red black out curtains on my back wall , dark gray on the two side walls until near the front I used black. The room sounded perfect!
We’re thinking about downsizing to a smaller house but I need room for my theater. I never thought about doing this but your video has really given me a lot more options about our next home. Thanks for the great idea.
The only mistake I noticed was using long sleeves when using the power tool/ table saw (safety issue). Otherwise, very impressive project. This takes a lot of various skills to complete, great job.
This has to be the best start to finish theater build I've ever seen. Great room. I'd have gone with 6 seats so nobody's right next a speaker but perhaps you had capacity goals that trumped that. Also some diffusion might help with mid/high energy distribution since you only added absorption. Anyway, thanks for sharing your fantastic build loaded with high quality products. Lastly, I miss my Tucson.

Great Job on your awesome build! Just came across this video and it brought back memories as I ruptured my patella tendon during my theater build! It slowed me down, but didn't stop me. I got er done and have been enjoying it for 13 years now!

"I want Valencia Theater Seating" - Steven Smith is working on my layout, and I'm getting ready to get to work on the build. Those seats look unbelievable!
We used to drive to a small town that had a drive in, then watch a scary movie and go back to the small camp site that we put up a small tent at about an hour before the show.
@@booshallmighty you seriously have no clue. When you have an extra $30K of your own money let me see you pull this off. 👍🏻 I’ll be waiting for your video.
@@booshallmighty please read my other response to you. You are very misinformed or did t actually watch my video. A lot of my own money and a lot of my solo hard work went into this project. Not sure where your negativity or minimizing of my efforts are coming from.
@@booshallmighty I’d love to see your project. I had to figure a lot out myself, too, as I had never built anything like this before or tackled a project of this scale. I too had to go to TH-cam a lot and through some trial and error come up with a lot of solutions to problem to pull this off. I believe it that you would have spent $15K as my out of pocket cost was easily $30K on this shed conversion even with the few sponsors.
@@MANSHED OK Truce. You worked hard and by the sounds of it you felt the pain too and we can all use a little help. Look, we share a common interest. We love the sound of theater so much we decided to spend a ton of money to recreate the magic of the movies. I'm sorry if I sounded harsh and I take it back. You worked hard and you have somthing amazing. Credit to you and all involved.
I think the theater setup is really great except....the screen is so small :( when you are sitting far back it's the same field of fiew as a phone in your hands. With a projector that powerful you should be able to have a floor to ceiling and wall to wall screen.
This has always been my dream to have a Home Theater room with everything just like this ... I promise to myself will save money(lots of it) and one day i will make something like this of my own :)
Never thought of doing that, definitely doing something like this when I get older. This is way better then taking away a extra room in your house. Crazy smart idea, won't be surprised if more of these pop up.
just coming across this video now and you did an amazing job. Built myself a studio/gaming room and the green glue and dual drywall layer makes a HUGE difference. I can blast my music and you can BARELY hear anything on the outside
Impressive. Most impressive. This is motivating me to replace the old, unsued shed on my property. Not a home theater but a motorcycle garage. Thanks for posting this. The theater looks AWESOME.
I've never thought to do this! Excellent video except 1 thing. You spent a lot of time and attention to detail on the build, which is impressive. You've even got what looks like really high end speakers and subwoofers, then you decided to go subpar on the amplifier with an AVR instead of separates? Why? Why spend all that money to skimp on the sound right there? Do your system a massive upgrade and get rid of the AVR, get a pre-pro and external amplification. You'll NEVER regret it. Edit: both subs in 1 location will do nothing to help reduce room modes. Another missed opportunity was not using the rear riser space as another subwoofer enclosure. Multi sub in multiple locations will help smooth out the bass response.
Saved this now moving within a few years and buying a house, so will do something similar maybe a little bigger maybe throw a corner bar inside for when the games are going maybe make the middle section removable again for sports games, people want to stand ect not just sit in silence lol
Love it! Wish I could do this because it would fit in my yard, but living in South Florida and the possibility of hurricanes would be to much of a gamble since depending on where you live, insurance won't cover outside sheds.
KUDOS to you and this amazing project!!! I made my guest house garage into an 18 seat theatre which had an older CRT ceiling mount projector, motorize 12’ screen and vintage theatre seats. Hung sound dampening curtains around the perimeter of the room. I had a karaoke pioneer LASER DISC PLAYER attached to a vintage entertainment center under the screen with newer high grade speakers and a 150 watt sub woofer. At the back of the room, i installed a 14” monitor so the singers could face the audience and still read the words to the song. NOTHING LIKE WHAT YOU DID, but after our theatre group performed, we would come to my place to watch the performance video make fun of our on stage faux pas!!! Maybe you can send helper nephew Mark from Texas out here to California to help me with future upcoming projects, looks like a well organized young man and hard worker!!! 👍👍👍BTW, when you said: “ALEXA TURN ON THEATRE”, my own bedroom alexa replied “sorry, I can’t find theatre”!,!, LOL....
The only reason he’d go for the projector instead of a 85inch OLED tv is if he was looking to install a 100/150 inch projector screen if he’s only installed a 70/80 inch projector screen , what was the point of buying such an expensive projector ?
I was thinking the same thing. A huge TV would have made for a way better picture than any projector could have given him. Guessing he was just thinking that it's a theater how you should do it like the theaters do. Who knows. Maybe he's finally come to his senses between then and now, heh.
WOOOOOOOOOOW! What an EPIC theatre setup. Congratulation to you and all those who pitched in to make it a reality. I will shortly be starting my project in a converted (spare) double garage. Fancy a trip to Oz to give me a hand.?
Absolutely stunning! Good job mate! So nice to see it built from scratch and how you got help and also did your own design to make thing fit. Love the colours, love the lighting and the way it's all controlled! Even the led lighting and the step you did.
Very nice Home Theater build! My wifes not gonna be happy I saw this! Would like to have something like this. My current "Home Theater" is Def Tech 7000s with a CLR2000 center channel, BPX1.2s on the sides, with Pro Monitor 1000s in the rear with 8 fifteen inch Eminence subs in an infinite baffle encloser driven by four Crown XTI 2000s. All Sony ES equipment a Samsung UHD 75", and lots of streaming devices like you have. Now i found someone who "showed me up", time to start designing something new! I love your project, and gives us all something to shoot for!
Wow. This is getting recommended to us when there is a possibility for another lockdown. I am convinced that TH-cam recommendations can see the future.
Naw... Nice sized garage with tool boxes and a couple of car lifts a/c and heat and the den room would be the home theatre. Wouldn't mind going to ur house to chill turn some wrenches and watch an Adam Sandler movie in the basement theatre tho.
That is such a small screen - if I were to build a theater room, it would have to have a big screen as a fundamental requirement. My regular TV is 85" so big should be big.
I was thinking the same thing! He used a projection screen. I'd never use that over a 4k t.v. I'm sure the sound was amazing, but the projector? Not so much!
A friend of mine mounted one of these projectors in his large dinning room. No screen. Just a white wall. We watched the superbowl at an almost lifesize ratio. It could be that this guy's is on video, but yeah, it does look small.
Big is like sub woofers.. if the room isn't big enough, you don't get the advantage of the bass having enough room to develop. Your eyes only see so wide.. so a big screen forces you sit farther back.. to see it all, essentially making it a smaller screen again. An ipad can seem as big up close...
@@Emma-dh1lx Do you not know that there are 4K projectors? Just look at some of the 6-10k ultra short throw laser projectors. Projectors can be very high end, and just as vibrant as a 4K tv
And contractors say homeowners do half ass jobs. This guy went above and beyond in every aspect of this build. Very well done. Jack of all trades, master of none but better then a master of one. In this case you were a master of all the trades.
Sick! this is actually great idea, you can watch movies or listen music anytime of the day and without bothering anyone Wish I had enough space in my backyard…
Randomly came across this video, been wanting to do a similar shed/home theater for a while now. Likely going to do it later this year. I too live in Tucson so I am going to reference the heck out of this video. Looks amazing, inspired.
My pops is the same way, he has one that is far superior to ours and he literally never goes down there. We have one with less than $10,000 invested and use it constantly!
I built one for 8k total. Paint, carpet, speakers, lumber, screen, projector, etc. I was sniping everything when it was on sale. Got a 4K BenQ speaker. 7.1.4 Dolby atmos Klipsch speaker set up, 155" screen, 2 recliner seats, Denon 4400 receiver. Its basically my daily driver for watching anything. With how everyone including movie studios are starting to aim for streaming new movie releases its about to have a lot more usage. Watch parties when COVID is over
OhMyGulay I’m planning on doing the same with a similar budget. Looking at Klipsch 7.2.4 speakers too. How big is your room and which speaker models did you go for? Would the r26 be too small for front for a 15x23 foot room?
I had a theater with a 9 foot screen. I used that bad boy every day. Still to this day, I hate watching tv and movies on a monitor. Projectors are soooooo much better
This is pretty epic! Well done! All the work that went into every detail is off the charts. This would be my permanent hangout no doubt about it as I love my movies lol!

That’s what I’m talking about!! Omg! The sound in that is gonna be awesome! 👍
This is what you call a home theater, all the details and hardwork that went in to this payed off 100%.
Facts
"I want Valencia Theater Seating" - Steven Smith is working on my layout, and I'm getting ready to get to work on the build. Those seats look unbelievable!
They are amaZingly comfortable. Steven Smith is VERY good. Glad you are using his services.
@@MANSHED My wife just responded to my Facebook post to inform me I don’t have your $65k budget. 😂
@@AustinBrister 😂😆😂😆😂
Imagine watching a scary movie then having to walk back to the house
Lol, I can imagine that.
😂😂😂
We used to drive to a small town that had a drive in, then watch a scary movie and go back to the small camp site that we put up a small tent at about an hour before the show.
F*** round in spend the night
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
I’m just blown away man! Whoa! Speechless and smiling 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Thanks Bro! Great meeting you this past weekend.
SHORTCUTS: Wow that is something that is nowhere in your amazing work. Absolutely incredible from start to finish!!!

@@booshallmighty you seriously have no clue. When you have an extra $30K of your own money let me see you pull this off. 👍🏻 I’ll be waiting for your video.
@HJP007 true true
@@booshallmighty please read my other response to you. You are very misinformed or did t actually watch my video. A lot of my own money and a lot of my solo hard work went into this project. Not sure where your negativity or minimizing of my efforts are coming from.
@@booshallmighty I’d love to see your project. I had to figure a lot out myself, too, as I had never built anything like this before or tackled a project of this scale. I too had to go to TH-cam a lot and through some trial and error come up with a lot of solutions to problem to pull this off. I believe it that you would have spent $15K as my out of pocket cost was easily $30K on this shed conversion even with the few sponsors.
@@MANSHED OK Truce. You worked hard and by the sounds of it you felt the pain too and we can all use a little help. Look, we share a common interest. We love the sound of theater so much we decided to spend a ton of money to recreate the magic of the movies. I'm sorry if I sounded harsh and I take it back. You worked hard and you have somthing amazing. Credit to you and all involved.
I’m blown away this Theater is so amazing
Thank you!
the whimsical music at the end that goes into final fantasy 7 sounding orchestra? 😂 love it, awesome job
nice! Thank you!
I love this idea. Throw a watch party with a couple of couples
And a few fews
And several severals
and more mores
I don't get it get its
I think the theater setup is really great except....the screen is so small :( when you are sitting far back it's the same field of fiew as a phone in your hands. With a projector that powerful you should be able to have a floor to ceiling and wall to wall screen.
This has always been my dream to have a Home Theater room with everything just like this ...
I promise to myself will save money(lots of it) and one day i will make something like this of my own :)

Please Salman khan ke movie mat dekhiyo. 😂
Same. Just didn't think it would've been so much of a technical hassle.
After spending a crazy night after CES 2024 I found myself watching this at 2am... this video really sucked me in! Nice job!
love it! CES 2024 was fun. Still wish there were more true innovative products.
Never thought of doing that, definitely doing something like this when I get older. This is way better then taking away a extra room in your house. Crazy smart idea, won't be surprised if more of these pop up.
just coming across this video now and you did an amazing job. Built myself a studio/gaming room and the green glue and dual drywall layer makes a HUGE difference. I can blast my music and you can BARELY hear anything on the outside
I love it. On another note I never realised the different names America has for construction materials and etc, interesting to me, I'm from Aus
In Australia do they call Sheetrock wood?
@@slickdawg4634 like drywall? We call it gyprock usually
I award you the best golden charismatic stylish theater designer award!

65k for this quality of theater is actually not that bad.
@@blackbibletv in what world? You can by a whole damn house for just a little bit more and throw a projector at the wall 😂
Yeah I keep that money in my other purse
@@blackbibletv can think of better things to buy with 65k! lmfao!
Man thats beautiful... Give me a great idea for my unused shed Im cleaning out now...Wow
“I Want Valencia Theater Seats” My wife & I would love these Theater Seats!
Impressive. Most impressive. This is motivating me to replace the old, unsued shed on my property. Not a home theater but a motorcycle garage. Thanks for posting this. The theater looks AWESOME.
thank you and glad it fueled some inspiration. 😎
Man you guys are just wonderful I wish I was this smart and talented to do it myself great job.

Thinking that you're not smart is wrong, just try, you can do anything, take a leap of faith my friend.
This is the prove that money can buy you happiness.
Money might not buy you happiness, but poverty will buy you nothing at all. ;)
It gets pretty normal pretty quickly
@@espenfarstad1697 thanks captain obvious. gtfo! lol
The prove is definitely in the pudding
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I've never thought to do this! Excellent video except 1 thing.
You spent a lot of time and attention to detail on the build, which is impressive. You've even got what looks like really high end speakers and subwoofers, then you decided to go subpar on the amplifier with an AVR instead of separates?
Why?
Why spend all that money to skimp on the sound right there?
Do your system a massive upgrade and get rid of the AVR, get a pre-pro and external amplification.
You'll NEVER regret it.
Edit: both subs in 1 location will do nothing to help reduce room modes. Another missed opportunity was not using the rear riser space as another subwoofer enclosure. Multi sub in multiple locations will help smooth out the bass response.
Saved this now moving within a few years and buying a house, so will do something similar maybe a little bigger maybe throw a corner bar inside for when the games are going maybe make the middle section removable again for sports games, people want to stand ect not just sit in silence lol
Love it! Wish I could do this because it would fit in my yard, but living in South Florida and the possibility of hurricanes would be to much of a gamble since depending on where you live, insurance won't cover outside sheds.
KUDOS to you and this amazing project!!! I made my guest house garage into an 18 seat theatre which had an older CRT ceiling mount projector, motorize 12’ screen and vintage theatre seats. Hung sound dampening curtains around the perimeter of the room. I had a karaoke pioneer LASER DISC PLAYER attached to a vintage entertainment center under the screen with newer high grade speakers and a 150 watt sub woofer. At the back of the room, i installed a 14” monitor so the singers could face the audience and still read the words to the song. NOTHING LIKE WHAT YOU DID, but after our theatre group performed, we would come to my place to watch the performance video make fun of our on stage faux pas!!! Maybe you can send helper nephew Mark from Texas out here to California to help me with future upcoming projects, looks like a well organized young man and hard worker!!!
👍👍👍BTW, when you said: “ALEXA TURN ON THEATRE”, my own bedroom alexa replied “sorry, I can’t find theatre”!,!, LOL....
You can buy a Bravia 85" OLED tv at best buy for $4,000 and the picture quality is beyond movie theater level
... and he uses an XBOX for his 'ultra HD media player'. I really hope he's upgraded since then.
The only reason he’d go for the projector instead of a 85inch OLED tv is if he was looking to install a 100/150 inch projector screen if he’s only installed a 70/80 inch projector screen , what was the point of buying such an expensive projector ?
I was thinking the same thing. A huge TV would have made for a way better picture than any projector could have given him. Guessing he was just thinking that it's a theater how you should do it like the theaters do. Who knows. Maybe he's finally come to his senses between then and now, heh.
There is NO Sony 85” Oled……..
@@tears2040
Guess the 83” version is close enough
WOOOOOOOOOOW! What an EPIC theatre setup. Congratulation to you and all those who pitched in to make it a reality. I will shortly be starting my project in a converted (spare) double garage. Fancy a trip to Oz to give me a hand.?
I've had the idea for a home theatre in a shed for about 15 years now and I'm glad to see it work. Great job, sir!
OMG THAT IS INSANE!! I'm extremely impressed. I wish I was inclined to work with my hands like that. It was utterly enjoyable watching this. Amazing
The thought process and creativity is really admirable. This was legit ground up. Turned out AMAZING! 🔥🔥
Oh my God, I have to pick my jaw up cause it just hit the floor. BEAUTIFUL. I don't have any other words to describe it, I'm super jealous bro!
Absolutely stunning! Good job mate! So nice to see it built from scratch and how you got help and also did your own design to make thing fit. Love the colours, love the lighting and the way it's all controlled! Even the led lighting and the step you did.
Just found your page. I love this build. Absolutely amazing. This gives me hope for my house as the design is not great for a quality home theater.
I don't know why you're calling it a theatre. This would be my ideal bedroom!
It actually has enough space in there to put a nice queen size mattress. 😂
Very nice Home Theater build! My wifes not gonna be happy I saw this! Would like to have something like this. My current "Home Theater" is Def Tech 7000s with a CLR2000 center channel, BPX1.2s on the sides, with Pro Monitor 1000s in the rear with 8 fifteen inch Eminence subs in an infinite baffle encloser driven by four Crown XTI 2000s. All Sony ES equipment a Samsung UHD 75", and lots of streaming devices like you have.
Now i found someone who "showed me up", time to start designing something new!
I love your project, and gives us all something to shoot for!
When you’re a kid and loved legos, then you’re an adult and still love legos only they’re real life legos. This is freaking awesome!
Yh.
Oh how I miss the endless days of building with legos as a kid. I had a 4 drawer dresser full of legos growing up. Best toy ever.
I like the idea of putting the Theater in a shed, so it’s separate from the rest of the house.
Fantastic video Michael! I can’t wait to experience it myself!
Thank you John! You’re going to love it. 😎
Wow. This is getting recommended to us when there is a possibility for another lockdown. I am convinced that TH-cam recommendations can see the future.
They just might!!
Man if I had this guys budget there would be a nice car in the garage, a good system in it, and a mediocre home theater in the basement
Naw... Nice sized garage with tool boxes and a couple of car lifts a/c and heat and the den room would be the home theatre. Wouldn't mind going to ur house to chill turn some wrenches and watch an Adam Sandler movie in the basement theatre tho.
“I Want Valencia Theater Seating,” because my wife won’t let me buy them!!! Lol. Amazing job on your home cinema!
Thanks! Let’s hope for the best on the giveaway. 😎
That is such a small screen - if I were to build a theater room, it would have to have a big screen as a fundamental requirement. My regular TV is 85" so big should be big.
I was thinking the same thing! He used a projection screen. I'd never use that over a 4k t.v. I'm sure the sound was amazing, but the projector? Not so much!
A friend of mine mounted one of these projectors in his large dinning room. No screen. Just a white wall. We watched the superbowl at an almost lifesize ratio. It could be that this guy's is on video, but yeah, it does look small.
Big is like sub woofers.. if the room isn't big enough, you don't get the advantage of the bass having enough room to develop. Your eyes only see so wide.. so a big screen forces you sit farther back.. to see it all, essentially making it a smaller screen again. An ipad can seem as big up close...
@@morbidmanmusic Yeah but, There is NO match for 4K T.V!
@@Emma-dh1lx Do you not know that there are 4K projectors? Just look at some of the 6-10k ultra short throw laser projectors. Projectors can be very high end, and just as vibrant as a 4K tv
Those Valencia theater seats are a dream 👌, congrats on completing such an epic project!
Need an outside hallway going to the front door so you wont get blasted with light everytime someone opens the door
Most people build their theatres inside the house. It's more secure and convenient too.
And contractors say homeowners do half ass jobs. This guy went above and beyond in every aspect of this build. Very well done. Jack of all trades, master of none but better then a master of one. In this case you were a master of all the trades.
I wonder what having motivation is like.
Was literally thinking “this must be what it’s like to not have ADHD”😭
Loved it I want one like yours !!! Great job impressed.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
7:24 Mark with the Danny Duncan shirt. Virginity Rocks! 😂😂
That was a fun project to watch, tons of great tips and ideas. P.S. "I want Valencia Theater Seating"
Excellent video, really informative, enjoyable and great result!
I mean Diet Root Beer and Mountain Dew?
THIS is the video that will wake your parents late at night. solid volume balancing bro stellar work
Sick! this is actually great idea, you can watch movies or listen music anytime of the day and without bothering anyone Wish I had enough space in my backyard…
Hey, Tucson! Neat 🙋🏻♀️
Hey hey 👋🏼
Randomly came across this video, been wanting to do a similar shed/home theater for a while now. Likely going to do it later this year. I too live in Tucson so I am going to reference the heck out of this video. Looks amazing, inspired.
Epic execution of a shed based home theater. The screen alterations using panels is genius. I want one. Super 😎 😎😎
Thank you!
I had a dedicated theatre room. Honestly never used it.
My pops is the same way, he has one that is far superior to ours and he literally never goes down there. We have one with less than $10,000 invested and use it constantly!
I built one for 8k total. Paint, carpet, speakers, lumber, screen, projector, etc. I was sniping everything when it was on sale. Got a 4K BenQ speaker. 7.1.4 Dolby atmos Klipsch speaker set up, 155" screen, 2 recliner seats, Denon 4400 receiver. Its basically my daily driver for watching anything. With how everyone including movie studios are starting to aim for streaming new movie releases its about to have a lot more usage. Watch parties when COVID is over
OhMyGulay I’m planning on doing the same with a similar budget. Looking at Klipsch 7.2.4 speakers too. How big is your room and which speaker models did you go for? Would the r26 be too small for front for a 15x23 foot room?
I can name 4 friends in this same situation. Not sure what they should repurpose it as, but it's a waste of space/money currently.
I had a theater with a 9 foot screen. I used that bad boy every day. Still to this day, I hate watching tv and movies on a monitor. Projectors are soooooo much better
One day ill have all of this and more
I don’t even have my own house yet and I’m dying to make a home theatre for myself!!!
This is pretty epic! Well done! All the work that went into every detail is off the charts. This would be my permanent hangout no doubt about it as I love my movies lol!
