Room Question


I’m making plans to finish part of my basement and move my system from the family room to the basement. The finished basement area will be in an L shape with one section being 15’ by 18’ and the L section being 12’ by 15'.

In the 15’ by 18’ section, there’s an off center 40” wide HVAC duct that runs the entire 18’ length. The 90” high ceiling in the 12’ by 15’ section is flat.

My question is… would it be smarter to use the 12’ by 15’ section for my system or take my chances with the off center HVAC duct?

Thanks

Glenfihi... The “rest of the family” that’ll use the finished area is the five grandkids. After more coherent thinking, it dawned on me that one of the things I want to accomplish is to have a room that allows me to put some real space between the speakers and the back wall… so I think the answer to my question is to use the larger 15’ by 18’ foot section for the stereo and the smaller L section for a TV area.

This project will for sure turn into the proverbial BOAT, i.e. Bring Out Another Thousand $... since I’ll be adding a 2 channel amp and preamp to my Theta system.
