Home theater carpet

Hi all. If anyone is looking for home theater carpet check out this link. I got mine from them.

Scroll down to gaming and entertainment. I got the one called Showtime in an area rug(6' X 12") for under 200.00
I had to order with them on the phone but their service is fantastic. They have lots of different designs.

Thanks for this! it may help with room acoustics also.

Dude...

It's your thing, but I hate it. To each his own...

I've always wondered about this - perhaps future updates for my Wal-Mart rugs, lol.

My mom always says "if you don't have something nice to say don't say anything at all", so your point of posting was?????

Yeah the one I got does help a bit since we have hardwood floors. It's also commercial grade so it will last a long time. I priced the same stuff at a bunch of other websites and they all wanted like 6 to 800 bucks for the size I wanted. When I found this one it was a done deal.

That's what happens in forums, people post opinions...

You weren't looking for any opinions, starting a new thread?

i dont know man, carpets are to dusty, even if you clean and vacum them, you can never get rid of the dust, by the way, i am already sufferinf from a lot of dust. i honestly have to clean my tv stand and tv, every day! i hate it!

[saprano]

So dont buy one.

May sound "Ghetto" but since replacing the carpet in my theater isn't really in the budget...... I may grab one of these in a throw-rug, and place it over the existing carpet.......

And for those who don't like theater carpet.....

1) It's intended for a dedicated theater

2) people with theaters with a lot of theater decor may like these things, people with a "simplistic" and classic look (although not simple by any means) Like Brain Sturgeon's theater for instance, wouldn't go for themed carpet..... but again, to each-their-own.

I've seen theater carpet in theaters that look great, and I've seen theaters with no theater-themed decor that look great......

Thank you Beta Man. That's a nice design too. We did the showtime one as a throw because we had all hardwood floor, and it goes with all our movie memorabilia. Plus the wife really liked it. Gotta keep the wives happy right?
By the way I can't wait to see pics of your home theater when it's finished. Looking great so far. I know you can't wait to finish. Anyway if you get one from Owen carpet, I know you'll be happy with their price and service. Oh, I forgot to mention, they will mail samples to you. We had like 2-3 different ones sent to us free of charge which helped us with our choice.
