Hi Guys. Long time no posts !!!

My excuse is that for what seems like forever i have been involved with the design of our new home ( townhouse ) and the sale of our existing home.
( Advice to all, never ever ever consider this during endless pandemic lockdowns ! )

We are finally in our new home which is one of four townhouses with spectacular views of the Manukau harbour.
Ours is the only one that is finished to the stage of being livable so we are actually living on a 'building site' until the others are finished.
The site is locked up every night to protect the unfinished properties and building equipment. We do however have the padlock combination so can escape when necessary !
Being involved with the design i was able to incorporate a dedicated listening/office/cave/ home theatre room by deleting a wall between two bedrooms to provide a 4m x 6m room.
It is still a work in progress ( shambles )but below are a couple of photos of the layout .
Cheers
Graham.

Welcome back, was wondering where you had gotten to...

Being involved at the design stage did you incorporate any audiophile fillips like dedicated electrical power, additional sound treatment etc ?

Your room is roughly the same size as my listening room/office and we share similar Logitech pc speakers

Yes to both.
Dedicated power supply wiring from fuse box and ground post, and super thick jib board with acoustic insulation in walls and ceiling.
I was a bit concerned that having lots of glass on the lh side and solid wall on the rh would produce a bit of an unbalanced sound, but so far it sounds fine.
I also was expecting a bit of side wall reflection compared to my previous huge room but again it seems fine.

If it aint broke don't fix it.

What a luxury to be able to build that in. Well done!

The sofa and cushions probably help a bit with that lefthand window.
