EPIC Home Theater Build + Full Basement Transformation! The BEST Basement Makeover EVER?!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 июл 2024
- In this video, we will walk you through the entire basement buildout we’ve just finished, which includes a beautiful home office, bar and entertainment area, and an incredible home theater. The basement started as an empty, unfinished space, which allowed us to create the best imaginable layout for the ultimate entertainment space for the homeowners’ friends and family. Of course, with any project like this, there are always some unique challenges to overcome. We invited the architect to talk with us about the design from start to finish and how we overcame obstacles when it came actually to building everything out. We then give you a basement tour to see all the unique features we’ve implemented.

Ahhh money, I can smell it from here!!
Thanks for watching
What a theater.
Particularly enjoyed the start to finish story. Seeing the steel go in to open up the room shows how serious this homeowner was to have a top of the line theater.
Thank you. Yes it was great to see how the space transformed
What an epic basement! Great attention to detail on the entire space! That projector is serious business!
You are right. This projector is incredible. We've used it in numerous installs and it makes a projector system look as bright as a tv but with the benefits of a huge immersive screen.
Yes, it is the ultimate basement. And yes, that is one heck of a great projector!
Hi Scott
Wow your videos are amazing of your home theatre designs for your clients, this is why i only watch your videos from Australia,just simply awsome craftsmanship of building a home theatre in a home..Love the equipment you choose for the client and the massive screen..
Now that's what I call a Theatre Room...Brilliant job Scott and Audio Advice....
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this feedback. We work really hard to deliver incredible systems so hearing this feedback is music to our ears. If you enjoyed the video, be sure to subscribe as we are going to be releasing some other really cool rooms that are quite different over the coming months.
I’m in Australia as well, These guys helped me years ago to choose an Anthem AVR and I’ve loved em every since- they’re the best !!
You guys are the A-list of home theater. Awesome!
Wow, thanks!
Incredible transformation and such an amazing Theater! Love the Star ceiling!
Glad you enjoyed it!
What an incredible installation! JBL synthesis speakers are amazing and the actual theater looks beautiful.
Thanks very much, yes they are one of our favorites!
EPIC! The whole space come out amazing.
Thanks very much. Yes it is an awesome space! Look for more home theater videos soon
This home theatre has outstanding design and setup. Beautiful to look at but technically sound (as usual). Fantastic!
Thanks so much! We really appreciate it
what an awesome basement ...nice work guys..
Thanks so much!
Amazing Theater -- I love it! - The Jastrom
Thanks so much. We had a lot of fun with the entire process
What a fantastic theatre!
The difference in sound going from the bar area to the theatre was immense, the audio correction was awesome 👌
Glad you enjoyed it!
Man oh man, you and Dawn are the kind of people we need for our basement finish. We want to do a Theater and a concession/game type area but am stuck with the details. Working with a lot of people that are not giving us any ideas that is fun and cool.
Thanks! Where are you located?
@@AudioAdvice I am in a suburb city of Denver.
@@dd_zzero6827 Try www.hhsusa.com/
Very nicely done! The entry way off to the side of the seats has that commercial cinema feel.
Thanks very much!
That home office, OMG!
Yes it is! We are glad you enjoyed the video
Quite the difference in echo/reverberation when changing rooms. Nice work!
Thank you. Nailing room acoustics is probably one of the most important things you can do and is too often an after thought.
Impressive, most Impressive!
We appreciate the shoutout!
I see what you did there 😂
Can't wait to see this video. The preview looks incredible!
Thanks, we think you will like it!
Excited to see this!
Yes, its going to be a great video!
I love the work you guys do. I can’t wait to be able to use your services.
Thanks very much, we look forward to working with you
Looks incredible!
Much appreciated. This takes a lot of work from a lot of people but boy is it fun!
Really really can’t wait to see how this turns out
It is going to be amazing!
amazing set up. thats one happy home owner. great job!
Thanks very much, yes this is one spectacular basement!
Really outstanding! I wonder how big the basement is in square footage?
We don't have that exact information off hand. Thanks for the compliment 😁
I'm ready to go! Woo!
Not much longer now!
Such a cool project
Thank Javid. It was a lot of fun. The homeowner was so cool to work with and obviously the architect, Dawn, was terrific!
You guys keep outdoing yourselves on these HT projects. This is just absolutely stunning.
Thank you so much. We really appreciate that feedback. One of our core values is Excellence and we keep trying to do our best to achieve that for our customers.
I agree. Terrific job. 100% using you all for my next project.
Amazing project!
Thank you!
My dream theatre by far !!!!! Amazing
Glad you liked it, thanks very much for watching and commenting
My fav JBL synth. Thank you Mr Scott.
You betcha. Thanks for taking the time to give us the positive feedback! It means a lot when we put in this much work!
I would love a theater like this as a gift to my mother, many thanks for sharing and giving helpful advice
You are so welcome!
It looks cool
Thanks!
Wow this must be incredible for gaming.
It is! Thanks for watching
Thanks for sharing, it is a very illustrative video on what should be done, please more videos like this, thank you very much.
Agreed. Great job.
We have many more in the works, stay tuned!
Thanks!
Now that’s what I call a home theater!
Yes, this one turned out fantastic! Thank you for watching
😮😊 more please!!
Thanks!
Thats the coolest man cave I've ever seen. Wow. 👌
Much appreciated. The project was super fun. We are going to roll out a handful of really cool theater rooms with different approaches, so if you liked this one, subscribe and you are going to see some cool stuff coming over the next few months!
Are the 4 subs all powered by just the JBL DSi 2.0 MA4-D 4-Channel Power Amplifier? That's an amazing setup! #inspired
Great question, there are actually two of them in the system- both are bridged. Glad you liked it!
wow. unreal. the budget that dude had.....#goals
Yes, this was a top of the line build. Glad you enjoyed the video
Did you consider backlit SEG (silicone edge graphics) movie posters? This would eliminate the reflective surfaces while giving you the flexibility of infinite brightness adjustment on the posters themselves.
We have not seen that technology. Could you please send us a link to the source who makes them. Thank you
Way cool install!
E
Thanks so much Ernie!
Question. I'm new to the thought of even trying to build a home theater. But the timing is perfect because we are currently building a home that will have a dedicated media room. The Media Room dimensions are about 15 1/2 ft wide, and half the room depth is 19'10" and the other half is 23ft, the ceiling is vaulted from 8ft to 10ft (highest point). Would you consider this a small theater room space? Also, do you think the room is big enough to house a 150" screen protector or bigger?
That will be a good size room for a theater! You can actually plug in all your room dimensions and see what fits with our free home theater tool at audioadvice.com. From there, one of our experts can help you plan it all out!
@@AudioAdvice Thank you! I will check that out.
Your channel is amazing! Thank you for sharing these videos. I hope to try business with you one day
I hope so too! Feel free to subscribe if you enjoy 😁
This theater really rocks. Great job Audio Advice and Dawn. Keep these videos coming so I can dream my perfect theater.
You bet! We love doing these as much as you enjoy seeing them.
Just goes to show you don’t need a Trinnov processor or (6) 18” subwoofers to have a top of the line theater. I’m sure this customer had the budget to include Trinnov gear and huge subwoofers if that would have made a noticeable difference. The fact that you don’t see Trinnov used or a ridiculous amount of massive subwoofers tells me all I need to know. Great job putting this video together and what a spectacular theater build.
Agree 100%
sony gtz380 80 000 euro lol
I miss these videos
We have a whole lot more lined up for the next few months! Stay tuned
Love the videos showing the timelapse! 🥳
Glad you like them!
It must say a lot for the AVM70 paired with all that other high end gear. I was expecting the synthesis processor or a trinov. Love the videos!
Thanks. The AVM70 is really a great processor. To your point, the system has 4 subs, so in the ideal world the system will move up to an AVM90 but when we first designed it and did the install, the AVM90 was not out. However, the AVM90 is a natural upgrade to the room.
LOL. Maybe if I hit the lottery one day and then hit another lottery later on.
Best of luck, thanks for watching
You weren’t in the projector’s laser ‘danger zone’? That beast actually has an FDA warning about the angle the viewer has to be at to be safe from the laser. That’s why you tend to see that projector with its optional short throw lens, where that isn’t an issue.
Great looking room by the way!!!
Yep. This particular projector is so powerful that you have to do a handful of things to do it right, including setting up in the right zone and running the 240 volts. You actually also have the ability to turn down the laser based on the size of the room which both impacts the zone and the the image performance. Thanks for the positive feedback and mentioning this key point.
Looked like the installation didn’t meet the hazard distance area? The first thing I picked up on when I saw the video. I know the short throw lens helps in that aspect, but you wouldn’t be able to use it with the Panamorph, so that would mean it’s probably the standard lens?

Whoa! Nasy! 👍👊✊................... UK
Yep. This rooms is sweet! If you liked seeing this video, be sure to subscribe as we are going to have some really cool but different types of rooms coming out over the next few months.
@@AudioAdvice Thanks for the info.... UK
Great video as always! Can you provide a class on anthem arc genesis? Even if it’s a paid class that goes in depth on how you guys calibrate rooms with it.
Thanks for the shoutout. In terms of Arc Genesis, we created a set up tips and tricks that covers Arc Genesis very well. Since the video was produced the one thing that is now different is that you do set the distance to the front left speaker at the beginning. But otherwise it is virtually identical if you follow this video. ruclips.net/video/Ua08GENR5eY/видео.html. When customers purchase from us, we actually allow them to send us their files or do a shared screen if they want to go a deeper level on tweaking their system. However, we have had a handful of people ask for an in depth class just like you did, so its definitely something we will think about how to do after a few more revisions of ARC
Great looking room.
Can you elaborate on the acoustic treatments used?
You mentioned the star ceiling helps with some absorption, what about bass trapping for those giant subs or any additional sources of absorption / diffusion in the room?
We used absorptive panels for the star ceiling and they are recessed from the ceiling to achieve a total of 2" off the wall of absorption properties. Then we used floor to ceiling wall treatments that are a mixture of absorption and diffusion. The room did not need bass traps. One of the great advantages of the Anthem AVM platform combined with 4 subwoofers is that we are able to calibrate all of the subs in phase and then cut out any peaks (which were not that bad to start with). Because we have risers and thick carpet and our Revolution chairs, the mix of frequency diffusion and absorption is really good. It's not too bright or to quiet.
@@AudioAdvice appreciate the reply. I've got some additional questions related to a new room I'm building. I'll reach out via your website. Thanks again for the great content!
What an (as usual) amazing video. Scott- what are the brand and Colours inside the theatre ? It’s an amazing colour.
Cheers, from Paul in Canberra, Australia.
Thank you very much. We are not sure on the exact color but will try and find out for you
Curious, would the larger SCL1 and SSW1's be overkill in a room this size? The movable headrest is very smart!
Great question. The answer is two pronged. First, the SCL1s and SSW1s are incredible. They would also have sounded great in this room. However, to your point, after all of the walls went into the room, the total size of the room meant that the SCL2 and SSW2s are able to complete bass load the room. In fact, when we were calibrating and testing the system, we were shaking items a floor up even though we had really good isolation. So yes, the SCL1s and SSW1s are terrific, but in this case the SPL level and bass loading of the room mean they would have had diminishing returns.
Looks great! What do you recommend for 9ch system and Atmos??? 2 wides? 4 Atmos? Or 2 rears
It really depends on the layout of the room. But here is the way to think about it. What you want is to have however many speaker you have spread evenly around the listener so that you can get a full immersive experience. So for most people 9 channels would be 7 in your bed layer (fronts sides and rears) and probably 2 atmos. However if you don't have a good place for rears, then most of the time you'd do sides and 4 atmos with the rear atmos providing sound behind you. If you are thinking about doing a room like this, go use our free home theater design tool and when you save it, you will get an email where you can schedule a free review of it with our designers based on your exact room. Here is the link www.audioadvice.com/home-theater-design
An amazing space any homeowner would be proud of! Great work!
We appreciate it. This turned out great. Positive feedback like this is what keeps us so motivated. Thank you!
One suggestion for the HT tool, there's no option for a single (center) speaker behind an AT screen with the mains as floorstanders to the sides of the screen.
Thanks for the input. We've not had this suggestion before but we totally get the use case. One of the challenges we face with the tool is that we could technically provide almost any scenario including the one you mention as well as having a missing side or back wall. But every time we add a capability we make it just a little more complex for the majority of people. So we take all of these suggestions and analyze the cost/benefit trade-off. Anyways, good suggestion. In the meantime, if you do this, you can design using all box speaker in the tool. Then simply install your center speaker behind the screen putting the tweeter as close to inline with the left and right tweeters as possible while still keeping relatively close to halfway up the screen. You may have to split the difference. Then just make sure that you mount the screen away from the wall so that the speaker can play through it without comb filtering or other issues.
Amazing room. Only thing that's a bit of a head scratcher to me is the charging points up front with the cabinets? Why not put the charge points by the seats? Most seats now you can get that anyways, plus there is a riser so easy to run electricity. Putting that game box up front I guess is more traditional and maybe easier to wire to the receiver? I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm just saying I don't get it (yet).
Distance from screen required depends on the screen type. Some screens you can go closer than others.
This room was beautifully finished. i love the wood on the edges of the risers.
Thank you, we are glad you liked the design. The idea was to keep everything very neat and clean. The controllers are totally hidden and charging when needed. Thanks for watching
What is the mode number and brand of those cinema chairs?
We supplied them, they are our own design www.audioadvice.com/revolution-home-theater-seating
can you add to the room projector app differnet metrics? (meters)
The latest release of the tool does have a little switch to go to metric. It is the first selection www.audioadvice.com/home-theater-design#designer Thanks for watching our videos!
That whole setup looks great I'm sure the sound and visuals must be awesome 😍👏👋👍
Thank you for the positive feedback. Yes, it does and sound incredible in person!
I think this would be me if i had money money
Thanks for sharing
Do you have mentorship or franchise opportunities. I would like to get into building home theaters but it’s difficult on how to start.
We have thought about adding more markets over time but for now have focused on helping customers through our stores and online team which do a great job designing theaters nationwide. That said, if you are thinking about getting into the business, what I would do is go to our RUclips channel and find the playlist called "Home Theater Buying and Design Guides". You will enjoy watching this playlist of videos that teach you most things about designing a theater. Then once you are through those, watch the playlist called "Best Free Home Theater Audio and Video Upgrades". This is a set of videos that use test tones and patterns and teach you how to calibrate and maximize the setup of any home theater or media room. If you do this in your own room, you will already be way ahead of what most professional installers do. Enjoy!
Can someone tell me where to buy the Star Wars collectibles seen in the office? Nice Home Theater…
We are glad you enjoyed our video on the home theater. We think the owner has collected those over a pretty long period.
why no thick bafflewall with an SBA / DBA ?
Simply because it is the speciality of the german freaks.
Is there a hush box for the projector? It looks like just a recessed shelf. Noise floor concerns?
We did not need a hush box. The fan pulls the air through to the back and the design of the cavity sucks up most of the sound. However, you bring up a great point since this particular projector does have a higher fan noise. We actually tested all of the major projectors in our lab for both light output and fan noise and integrated it into our free projector throw distance calculator. It shows the fan noise at 3 feet and 6 feet so you can adjust where to put the projector based on the SPL level. You can test yours here or any other: www.audioadvice.com/projector-throw-distance-calculator
Usually if you can move the projector into the wall like this, the sound is greatly reduced without having to enclose it. I always worry about hush boxes increasing the heat on a projector and degrading its life. Much prefer moved back like this one was.
@@Vd-qt7yb Yes, this worked great with the way the air flow works on this Sony model.
how much do a setup like this run?

$80,000 for Sony VPL-GTZ380. Nice.
It is an amazing projector. Thank you for watching
Nice job. LEDs are a pain. No consistency brand to brand like incandescent. Even seen the same model dimming to different levels.
You are exactly right. When you want a high-end look with completely consistent colors, dimming and color rending index; then you use higher-performance LEDs and not cheaper LED strips from Amazon or a box store. These are high-performance and are connected to a Control4 system that controls the dim level and color. To get this full look you also need to use a channel to hold the LEDs and use a good diffuser to diffuse the light out of the channel.
Thanks, yes some LED systems are trash, but not these, they came from Element and are fantastic.
I wonder what the total cost of the project is
We have links to the gear we used here www.audioadvice.com/videos-reviews/multi-use-home-theater-system-design Thank you for watching
Great Video and Love the Theatre Room designs. But... SLOW down, you talk too Fast! :)
Thanks for the feedback. I used to talk slower in these and go into a little more detail and we started getting feedback to tighten up the duration of the video. So I tend to get excited and try to cover quite a bit in a short time frame. But it's good feedback that I incorporated into the one we just released. Check it out and let me know if you think the speed of this one is better or if I need to slow even more: ruclips.net/video/1t82UbP8KbA/видео.html
The projector ALONE is $80,000.
Tell me you're rich without telling me you're rich.
Nice video BTW - too bad I can't afford the carpet you're walking on. 😀
Thanks for watching! Yes, this is a very high end theater!
Honest question here... does an $80k projector ACTUALLY make that much of a difference over let's say, a $8-10k projector? Just seems crazy to me to spend that much on just one component of the theatre. Incredible job though regardless! Druling over here...
The picture on the GTZ380 is jaw dropping good. But 8-10K in todays market does get you a great projector, but side by side, there are very obviously different. We are glad you enjoyed checking out our latest home theater video. More are on the way soon!
@@AudioAdvice I guess it's similar to experiencing sound from one system to another. Words don't do it justice. Thanks for the reply!
Welding two I beams together seems dodgy
There was a lot more involved than what we showed and talked about. The construction team did that part of the job. Thanks for watching!
@@AudioAdvice really enjoyed the video, just seemed out of place.
I sure would like to get a response from Audio Advice. I’ve contacted Tyler Ellis to determine when the projector I ordered two months ago would ship. He said he would let me know after contacting the warehouse the next morning. That was five days ago and still no response. I guess spending $18,000 doesn’t guarantee good service.
Hi J D, I have escalated this to our sales team and will have someone reach out asap. We apologize for the wait.
I think the room needs an AI bar service.
Yes. That would be cool!
nah i’ll just watch it on my iphone
Haha. Thanks for watching.
For the low low price of an arm and a leg😂.
Haha. Yes it was pretty incredible. Thanks for watching
