Isolated Home Theater Still Roars

Isolated Home Theater Still Roars


The acoustic isolating design of this home theater makes it the first I've ever read that brags about how silent it runs. Those wall panels hanging from this basement den absorb sound, as do the dense 1-pound per square foot barriers behind the double walls. Then there's the floating floor made of a plywood top placed over jelly-like deadening material, which helps the floor jiggle during motion effects on top of making things a bit more silent. The picture comes from a Sim2 Domino30 single-chip DLP projector aimed at a screen with perforations to let all that center channel action pass right through.
