Mid-Priced TV Room



 

The requirement for this project was to take an un-used area in the basement of the house and turn it into a TV Room.

Our client was keen on the idea of having some lighting control and would like to be able to control the AV equipment with his iPad, while keeping everything simple to use.

The main issue that we needed to overcome was the dimensions of the space we had to work with, so straight away we decided that bulky floor standing speakers were not an option and decided to build a false wall along one side of the room to incorporate in-wall speakers. We also decided to build a box section along three sides of the room's ceiling to house the down lighting.

 
We wanted to keep the front wall as clean as possible, with nothing to detract from the flush mounted 60” plasma, so we chose Stealth for front speakers and subwoofer so that the wall could be finished off with a wall paper of the client's choice. A pair of Revel in-ceiling speakers were mounted in the rear box section
 
 
 
5 Channel amplification and a Blu-Ray DVD player from Integra, Stealth's subwoofer driver and the HC800 Home Controller from Control4 were housed in a mini-rack which was then located under the stairs.
 
 
 
For the lighting, we used Puck Dimmers from Control4 and added the Control4  Multi Room amplifier for stereo audio in the Office and Lounge with the             possibility to add the patio and kitchen at a later date.
