Our clients wished to convert their double garage and create this Luxurious Ultra HD home cinema room with a 2.35:1 acoustically transparent screen and 7.2.4 Dolby Atmos sound. This seven seat cinema room has acoustically transparent fabric panels to hide the in wall speakers. The fabric panels also helped to conceal many plumbing and electrical utilities, which were already located in the garage and needed to remain in place, but unseen. The Garage conversion work was carried out to a high standard with soundproofing features incorporated into the screen wall and the floor was thermally insulated. The timelapse video is mesmerizing with very fast action and a lot of activity shown within a very short time. The cinema room features lighting control with control4 and projection using a Sony SXRD 4K projector utilising motorised lens with lens memories to enable all aspect ratios to be projected at full height on the cinema scope screen. The speakers are Dali Phantom with thunderous bass from two Dali K14F Subwoofers. The processing and amplification is delivered by an Anthem MRX-1140 AV Receiver. All of the design work was done by UK Home Cinemas of Berkshire UK as well as the supply and installation of the audio-visual equipment and the elements of home cinema style such as the fabric wall panels etc. The building work for the garage conversion (and for prerequisites for the cinema room) was carried out by LA Building and Construction Limited, also of Berkshire UK. Sound proofing elements were incorporated into the design of the screen wall, such as the use of resilient bar to decouple and reduce the transfer of vibration from the acoustic plasterboard to studs and the use of several layers of acoustic plasterboard , use of rockwool inside the stud wall and having the speakers set into a separate layer of plywood located in front of the main stud wall. The size of the double garage prior to conversion was: approximately 7.2 Metres long by about 4.7 metres wide. A small part of this remains as a storage area, accessible via the original garage door, so the length of the finished cinema room is about 6.3 metres. The original ceiling height of the garage was about 2.47 Metres. This was reduced slightly due to adding insulation in the floor as can be seen in the video.
