How isolated is your hi-fi?


I'm thinking of dedicated rooms, not component stands. I was looking at some of the "All Out Assault" rooms in the virtual systems section, and while some of them are impressive they are all isolated. It occurs to me that if I had a dedicated room I'd probably never use it because I'd be sitting in there by myself. I use our family room and the hi-fi is just something we make room for. It isn't the perfect accoustic setup, but my wife and I enjoy listening to it. I take the noise of the ice maker or banging pots and pans from the kitchen in the next room in stride.

Anyone else ever consider this scenario?

the problem with high deff. is the content. there is none, at least none worth watching. i started in video. been watching 1080p for 5yrs or more. just in the middle of dismanteling home theater surround going 2 channel anologe only. keeping the projector and scaler for that rare viewing, and the recliners, but all else, surround sound (7.1)gone. preferr listing to vinyl over a crappy movie any day. my basement is my dedcated area, does not look like a basement(walk out), practicly live in it, completely addictive. i also am an empty nestor and loving it.
chris great looking set up love the look of mbl never heard though, sure they sound fantastic. i have their counter system krell evo/ b&w. whats up no vinyl? i believe there is a happy medium. a room which is dedicated and not. stereo/workout/home theater/office. seperate section of home but plenty to do and still the ability to dedicate and yet not.
