Two-level / back row seating in a home theater

Currently I can have only one row of seating on the couches that comfortably seats seven people, everyone else has to sit on the floor. I am considering building a raised platform for rear seating so that I can have two rows of couch seating.

For those of you that have two-level seating in your home theater, how much higher is the back row flooring than that of the front row?

thanks......mitch

The rear riser is 14" tall. Thus one step up at 7" to the platform. This also allows you to see over the heads of the front row while in reclined position.

Make certain to reinforce the risers, and fill with insulation. Otherwise you will have a very large resonance chamber...

Good luck.
