Wow, impressive. How much did it cost you to do all of that? I'm thinking that making your basement into a "home theater" would be cheaper and easier than turning your garage into one. Great tips though - very thorough!
Having a home theater in a basement sounds like a fun idea too. I live in a part of the country where most homes don't have basements though. We get earthquakes, not tornadoes.
Bruce, those rooms look great, you definitely have a talent for this. I think what you spent is very reasonable considering everything you were able to get. Thanks again for the advice and the update regarding your equipment. As LoveJB said, you were very thorough!
