Equipment List:

Receiver
-Panasonic PT-AE900U Projector
-110″ Diagonal DIY screen with screen material
from www.smxscreen.com

motorized reclining

I did the majority of the work myself. The Theater is double drywalled with two sheets of 5/8″ drywall with Green Glue between each sheet of drywall and insulation stuffed in all the walls and ceiling. All the walls and the ceiling are isolated using products from http://www.pac-intl.com The front stage is also completely filled with sand. I also use a Biometric Fingerprint Door Lock for access to the Theater.

Any more questions or suggestions for this list just post a comment.

A new video of the Theater will be coming shortly.

Thanks for viewing!
