We recently bought a new house and I have unilaterally seized the basement to convert it into my own, man's cave. This is not just a generic man's cave. It works based on Einstein's time/space relativity principles. Once you open the door you enter a new dimension, detaching yourself from the events that are taking place upstairs: Wife making way too much noise, arguing with my kids, dog barking and so on.
I purchased a 60" inch Samsung 4K ultra HD LED blah blah blah TV and replaced my old Onkyo AV receiver with a brand new Marantz 1200 watt 7.2 receiver. i had a 15" subwoofer from before and purchased a second 12" Polk Audio sub. I've got JBL speakers all around but still need to get a pair of ceiling speakers since I've gone from 5.1 to 7.2.
Sound and picture are wonderful so far, but whenever I watch a movie with explosions or a concert the walls "rumble", which for me is pretty cool but not for my next door neighbor. She's a retired lady well into her 70's, who happens to believe the explosions are real. Maybe she's watching too much Al Jazeera TV, who knows :-)
I need to figure out a way to sound proof my 16' x 9' cave. Budget at this point is a bit of a problem, but I am not downgrading. Any feedback would be highly appreciate it.
Thanks
Joe
