    Awesome. I was standing amidst the double dry wall, whisper clips, etc. yesterday while mine is being built. Enjoy.

    Congrats. Its a real blessing to be able to have a room dedicated to audio. It makes it so much easier to put up acoustics panels as needed.

    Very nice audio-man cave. All you need is a bit of space, and some peace and quiet.

    I hope you enjoy your setup!

    Re: my new cave

    Not perfect but it has great potential with a few more walls and doors.

    I can't wait to see that center diffuser mounted at ear level where it will do some good.

    Bravo, and congrats.
