The Cedar Creek Cinema story: Angie allowed me to have half the garage back in the mid 2,000's which resulted in the first edition of Cedar Creek Cinema. It was too small at only 11.5ft wide by 19.5ft deep, so I tore it out and restored the two-car garage. Within a few years Angie had endured enough of the AV system sharing duties with her great room area and suggested I take the entire garage with the caveat that I add at least a two-car carport on the end of the house. Done! The second edition of Cedar Creek Cinema and Listening Room is 19.5ft wide x 23.5ft deep and is as much of a music listening room as it is a home theater room. It is home to several AV equipment and speaker evaluation/testing/review events as recorded at Home Theater Shack forum and AV NIRVANA discussion forum and AV review site. I was able to create a hallway between the house and the room to help isolate the noise coming back into the house. The walls and ceiling consist of several barrier layers and the walls are about 9 inches thick with blown newspaper insulation. Leaving the house entering into the hallway with the Pink Floyd poster (from 1994 concert we attended), and on into the room thru the double solid core entrance doors... this is the real deal.

THIS IS MY MAN CAVE!
