While visiting one of my audio forums came across this, and thought of someone here. GIK Acoustics makes dampening sound panels for audio rooms, taking photos and printing them on the transparent cover surface. Not only the art panel choice but the speaker veneer matches too. Friggin guy probably has the vehicle wrapped as well.
Corner bass traps are there but it needs more wall work IMO.
I like the Cat on the wall. Likely the only way the cat is allowed in that room.
One thing I want in any house I move into other than a large shop is hardwood floors.
I dislike carpet. It's just one big dust trap.
A better image directly from the owner on Polk. And the best I could do with a closeup. Keep in mind these are printed on weaved acoustic fabric. I never owned one, just saw them in someone's room, the panels weren't the interest, the equipment was.
When I had my dual cone SVS subwoofer in the family room, corner loaded directly below the dining and living room, I could easily rattle the dishes with something like the opening scene from one of the Terminator movies. I think it was a Thankgiving at our house and we had my mother who was hard of hearing over. She and Les were upstairs, and I showed our son and grandson my new subwoofer with that movie opening. My mother thought there was an earthquake during the referenced scene. I ended up selling that dual off and went with a single, too many JACK being yelled down.
When the first Jurassic Park hit movie theaters I happened to be working during one show down in the service tunnel below the audience.
There was somewhere between 3 and 4 feet of cement between me and the auditorium. I could feel the T-Rex when it showed up the first
time on screen. That theater was a single screen with 1200 seats and one hell of a sound system. On top of that they were using Dolby
DTS with some crazy sub woofers. Being a single screen you can get away with things like that that shake the house.
The other wild place to be for sound and I had worked on the equipment install crew that built the place is the Oat Tree Cinema in Seattle with it's THX house.
It took 6 of us to lift the sub woofer into place and it even had to have it own power to run it. That one was so amazing. When they ran some test film thought it
they used some 70mm film from the first reel with the Opening Scene Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom. You could hear the sequins move on her dress.
Needless to say I was very impressed with what we had built.
Now any time I see it I think just how muddy the sound is.
So I had this old boat and my wife had an idea. Here's what we ended up with.
Dug a hole and managed not to take out wife's rasberry bush.
12ish foot boat. Otherwise junk.
Added boat to hole and graded around it. Added a pond liner and water.
End of day one.
Onto day two. Picked up pallet of PA field stone. 3k#s worth. 4 or 5 buckets worth. Glad I got the tractor. Two layers of stone first, pulled the liner up over those layers and continued layering stone. Built it up in the back and added a water fall using the filter pump. Done! We added 4 tadpoles, 7 Comets, lillies, and couple other things.
So we always wanted a little pond. I (she) wanted rid of the boat. I needed an excuse to use the tractor, trailer, & 6.0. Missions accomplished. And the kids had fun helping.
