The Great Kiwi Build - Blu-ray Forum

kopkiwi · 10-12-2018, 02:31 AM

After 10 years of dreaming, researching and planning the wife and I have finally started the build on our home, which means I finally get a dedicated cinema.

Foundations went down in August, frames have gone up since and the roof on next week. Expected move in date is late Feb/early March.

Room dimensions are 6.5m long, 5m wide and 2.7m high.

Will be a 7.4.4 set up. Undecided on whether I'll go with two rows of seating, or just one and leave a space at the back for poker night.

It will be a decoupled wall situation to help with noise. Gear....undecided, I won't be going with speakers behind the screen aside from the center as I want to show them off if I've spent far too money on them

I like the Paradigm 95F and 55C, but can get a fantastic deal on the new Klipsch RF-7 II and RC-64.

Anyway, couple of photos.

Start by showing off the view. It's the reason we picked the site. Full view from the bottom of the southern alps all the way out to the beach on the far right.

Ground floor frames going in

and the room itself, fully light controlled

I will be updating the thread regularly with updates of the build progress and then the fit out of the room to follow.
