Stuff still to be done everywhere. Here you can see trim, hushbox, lighting, HVAC supply diffusers. The light above my chair will be a small spot with a very directed spot (probably with a small can around it) so I can read or whatever while I'm relaxing by myself.

The nasty hanging halogen will be replaced with a track light to splash different colored spots on the screen during intermissions and ingress/egress. You can also just see the rope light "halo" around the screen on the side-walls and ceiling. It looks better in person. I still need to put some kind of blocking in to stop the ring of light around the floor, wall, ceiling, so the soft glow is just behind the screen. I still need to put the border on the screen. The 'halo' light is only on during trailers, football, games, etc. It's off during movies.

M&K LCR-750THX's, Center-750THX, and two M&K V-75 MkII's.

Carpet is black, with confetti flecks in a grid pattern. The rope light is sunk into a reveal built into the riser. Looks sweet with all the lights off.

ATS Acoustics SandShapes Series acoustic panels. 24"x48"x2", 4 on each side. Mostly covers the first reflection points for both rows, all seats. I went for a balance between aesthetics, performance, and full treatment.
