Dedicated Audio Room Lighting Ideas?


Before closing up the walls in my new dedicated audio room, I need to settle on the room lighting approach so I can put in the wiring and boxes. The lighting needs to be both bright enough for working in the room and adjustable to suit the moods of 2 channel listening.

The only constraint is I don't want to use can lights since the ceiling is a key part of isolating the sound from the room above and they provide a conduit for the sound. Track lights might work but they would need to be very unobtrusive as the ceiling is 7 1/2 ft. Sconces are a possibility.

Any suggestions? I have looked at many rooms on this site and most pictures show the rooms well, but not the lighting.

I was able to use track lighting since my ceiling is 9 feet. The walls were already finished. If I had it to do over I would put wall sconces every 6 feet or so, on dimmers if they were silent, and then floor standing or table lamps for task lighting. Good luck
