Home Theater Design

One of the most overlooked features of a quality Home Theater design are the dimensions of the room. The size and shape of a Home Theater Room can significantly affect the quality of your Home Theater system. The dimensions of your room will determine how the sound will interact with the interior walls, especially the low frequency (bass) sound waves.
The ideal shape for a room is rectangular. However, if possible stay away from rooms where the length and width are multiples of the height. For example, if the height of your Home Theater is 8', the length and width should not be 16' x 24' (both multiples of 8'). Try altering at least one dimension by a foot or so. A square shaped room is the least acoustic friendly shape that you can have.
