[QUOTE="Morgan Irwin, post: 814458, member: 17017"] "Day one" of construction work starts. We were told by the builder that there was a small cavity running on the left side of the ceiling that was approximately 200mm deep. We were very surprised to see that it was actually far more than that and realistically closer to 500mm deep (I didn't get around to measuring it myself, but I am sure one of my staff did). While this cavity in the ceiling potentially poses some issues acoustically, it could also be useful for a few other elements of the room like air conditioning ducting and venting the air from the self-contained air conditioning unit. [url=https://postimages.org/][IMG]https://s19.postimg.org/55e064z1f/IMG_0767.jpg[/IMG][/url] On the right side of the room is a sewage / waste water cavity in the floor. We haven't opened this yet, but we suspect that it is going to require filling as it creates a massive resonance in the room if you stamp your foot on it. We assume it is going to react the same way to bass frequencies. Its great to see what we are going to be working with on this project, its always best to start from a bare shell when building a home cinema of this quality at this level. [/QUOTE]
