Episode 216 - Let’s Build a Home Theater...

Adam Justice
About this episode

Adam and Richard are joined by three expert guests — TJ Huddleston and Seth Johnson from the HomeTech Podcast, and Cinemaworks owner Owen Maddock — to help Adam design and build the home theater of his dreams.

The project begins with some fundamental questions: What should the space look like? Who’s going to use it? How do you soundproof a theater? And how do you get the most out of your budget? Plus: What Adam learned from trying to help his dad set up a home theater, an important warning about what projector manufacturers claim on the box, and why you should try to buy a “forever screen.”

Produced by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm
