Is Your Room Too Small For A Home Theater?? No....it's not

You can slowly create a movie theater over the time that it takes to build one... you just need to have patience and be happy with what you can get slowly.

[@northeast7412]

I reckon the most truthful answer to why most people do not have a home cinema, it’s simple, they can’t be bothered putting in the effort as they feel it’s not worth having one for the amount of time they would use it.

[@DGaryGrady]

Excellent information as usual. In several ways a small room can be better for a home theater because it will be easier and cheaper to cover windows and walls in order to dampen reflected light and sound, and since you're likely going to end up sitting closer to the screen, a given screen size will give you a wider angle of view. For reference, with a 16:9 screen, the height is 0.49 times the diagonal and the width 0.87 times the diagonal. So a 100-inch screen (not counting any border) has dimensions of about 87 by 49 inches. A 120-inch screen is about 105 x 51 inches. The horizontal angle of view depends on the screen size and the eyeball-to-screen distance. For casual viewing many people are content with an angle of 30 degrees or even less. SMPTE and THX lean more toward 40 degrees for movie watching. Of course, for the even wider angle you prefer, you could go as high as 50 degrees. Here is the ratio of screen distance to screen diagonal for each of these: 30 degrees: distance 1.63 x screen diagonal (casual viewing) 40 degrees: distance 1.20 x screen diagonal (conventional home theater recommendation) 50 degrees: distance 0.93 x screen diagonal (sort of home IMAX) Note that for 40 degrees this works out to almost exactly one foot of viewing distance for each 10 inches of screen size, which means watching a 100-inch screen from 10 feet away or a 120-inch scree from 12 feet away. I personally think 50 degrees is a bit too much, so I hereby propose a new, slightly reduced standard: a 47-degree horizontal field of view, which conveniently gives a viewing distance almost exactly equal to the screen diagonal. For a 120-inch (10-foot) screen, this would mean sitting 120 inches (10 feet) away. I further propose calling this the Majestic View. How about that?

[@TriMuXx]

Haha, YES!! I've been telling Friends and family this for YEARS now! Finally a video from someone that explains that clearly you can fit a projector in a LOT smaller spaces than you thought you could! I love how you said something to the tone of "....the end up going with a larger screen size and sit closer to the screen..." lol. Another great video! Keep it up!!!

[@BuildMontage]

I built my whole channel off having a small sized room for my home theater. Seated position should be your first consideration as everything stems from that, including screen size - I learned that the hard way when I first started. Nicely done - awesome you can help your family and friends to build rooms.

Your room is not as small. Mine is only 12 by 14

[@RON8O]

This video has me thinking about putting my Yamaha RXV1 in the living room. I have always been concerned about space. Your videos are great, keep ‘em coming Chris!

[@bighands69]

The beauty of a home theatre is the fact it can be personalized. Speakers can be directed or be indirect. You can have as many channels as you like. You can balance viewing distance with speaker layout and so on. Some people like dynamic smooth image while others like to try and emulate the film look.

[@chrichtonsworld1]

A fully dedicated home theater room is not an option for me. I always find it funny that a small room in the US is still a whole lot bigger than a small room in my country (The Netherlands). It's a legitimate reason for many people living here since most places simply are too small to have dedicated home theaters. Although mine is even smaller than that. It's one of the reasons why it took me so long to purchase a 4k TV of a relative big size (55 inch). I had to put in some work to make that happen. In hindsight I could have gone bigger because you get used to it real fast. So after a while I did decide to do so. I opted for a projector and a hanging screen (retractable / 100 inch 16:9) since that is the most practical for me. That way I can pull down the screen when I want to watch a film that warrants use of projector (BenQ TK700STi gaming beamer) without having to adjust already existing setup. I think I am very lucky that the distance is just right. Had my living room been smaller I would be too close to the screen and then I don't think it would be much fun. Gaming on this projector certainly is a little overwhelming. Perfect for horror games to intensify the experience but I prefer the TV for more action orientated games. I do want to add while I understand that you are trying to say that basically anyone can have a home theater of some sorts I do think that most people don't really want one. For film fans like me it's a no brainer. But for casual viewers a TV usually is enough.

[@ddeep2518]

Hi... Very motivating video... Initially I planned to use my living room into multipurpose room. My room dimensions are 16X24. I made arrangements for 7.1.2 setup and a projector mount at 10.5 feet from the screen. But lately I noticed it is not convenient to use speakers in living room as the sound is little irritating to my family members in other rooms. So now I decided to have a dedicated movie room, which is one of my bedroom. Dimensions are 14x 17. But my seating will be appx 12 feet from the screen. So i felt ur video is very useful for me. I have denon 3800h and Polk signature series with 2 Atmos speakers.

[@scotth6814]

I haven't built my HT yet, but experimentation has shown me that it's hard to get optimal sound in a small room for any seat but the one in front row center. Every seat off center is going to be closer to the speakers on one side wall than to the speakers on the other side wall (also applies to front L & R speakers). The view of the screen will also be distorted at any seat off center. For these reasons, I think HT would be disappointing for any seat off center, and terrible if the distance that it is off center is a significant fraction (20% ?) of the width of the room (and screen). For these reasons, I would think you would want a room 20' wide for a 3-seat or 4-seat couch. I notice though, most HT rooms are narrow & deep. I think it would make more sense to put the screen in the middle of the wide wall (unless your room is then not deep enough for another row of seats, if you need it).

[@carcar5911]

My room is 11x12 and it rocks! On your recommendation I painted all walls including ceiling pencil point gray. No light reflection at all. 7.2 all klipsch all around.

[@AD648group4]

I saw one pro installer put a ultra short throw projector upside down on the ceiling, making the in-wall install much simpler in an existing room, and making the look and center speaker situation much cleaner.

[@johndaddabbo9383]

"Center channel speaker placement isn't as important" - Actually it is the single most important speaker, and placement is utterly important, but more and more difficult as screen size increases. A 65" screen and no issues (keep the center speaker as close as possible to the bottom of the screen). With an 85" screen you are already negatively affecting the Frontal Stage (on screen action). At 100" and above it's a total mess and hence people tend to want perforated screens with speakers placed behind the screen, however your Sound quality will go down even when using the very Best perforated screens out there..., plus some form of equalization is a must in order to help compensate for those screen losses, especially in the upper frequencies (say above 5khz). Although I suppose that all of my above comments assumes that one places the Audio at or above the importance of the Video, for which it's obvious that I most definitely do (not all folks do). So for all you Audio first folks, you may want to consider my above comments... and to Learn as much as you can on the topic before going with a screen size that ends up lowering your overall sound quality (for Movies AND Music).

[@Totalplonker]

Excellent comment!!! two other things are like the point out when building a home theatre in a small room, if possible try to go with standmount bookshelves as opposed to towers, I found towers were way too boomy for my small environment! secondly one should go for two smaller subs as opposed to one Big sub (consistent low frequency effects throughout the whole room) btw you obviously know what you're talking about click on the red dragon hit the... 'REL and Q Acoustics' video and I'd be happy to hear from you if you think I've done anything wrong? Criticism welcomed! 😟

[@johndaddabbo9383]

@@Totalplonker Well Thank you. I hope it helps some folks. I so LOVE this hobby! Agree, one ought to verify IF bass notes played from the location of their main speakers (+ seating position) in their given room will work or not. For often main speakers placed for Best imaging and sound staging will (as TP notes) sound terrible below 80 (or 60) hz, and therefore one is much better off with big powerful bookshelf speakers (often a single 6.5 driver won't cut it... unless playback Volume is kept medium-ish or the room is small / seating is close to the speakers), or a small tower speaker which can easily handle > 50 hz... and then employ Multi-Sub (two minimum and three ideally). Oh sure, I'll take a look... besides with both REL and Q Acoustics how can I not... two Brands that make really good stuff!

[@bloodcarver913]

I think it's nice that ppl have theaters of any size. BUT, there is a LOT more acoustic problems with a small room vs a large one. The sound will usually be a lot better with a big room. As long as one acknowledges that - run with what you have.

Some people may only have a living room that is quite small but they can still have a good sounding system. There is a lot of audiophile nonsense as well about what gear should and should not be used. People need to hear it for them self.

[@Mattwbw]

I mean, my room is 7.25 foot high x 10.4 foot facing one way x 6.9 foot facing the other way. And I have a bed, a chest of drawers, a seat and a desk/table in the room. So It’s definitely too small for a proper home theatre set up. Best I can do is a soundbar and a 50” 4K TV, that just about fits, considering it’s on the side with the door. The TV and soundbar aren’t wall mounted though. I prefer they not be.

[@twotooneadam1239]

One trick instead of buying floor standers is to buy higher end book shelf or on walls with a good sub. In walls or on walls in a small room will give better cohesion than a floorstander as often the lower frequency drivers are hitting the couch or other furniture, therefore not getting the full capabilities of the floorstander.

[@garrettbaudioandvideo]

[@yessi_r6537]

this is almost identical to my media room setup (14 wide x18 deep) and I have a row of 4 media chairs, my original plan was to place 2 pairs of 2 seat sets on either end of the doorway on risers (my doorway is at the "back" of the room's 18 foot length in the center). and leave enough room for someone to be able to walk between those seats and my first row when not fully reclined. I've switched to now planning to do a row of 4 media seats that I have and adding a bar behind those seats for an additional 4 people. leaves me more space overall and I like the idea of having a comfortable place to sit and eat for informal watching without the need for a tray that fits into a cup holder and other not as ideal alternatives. otherwise i'd also consider a u shaped setup utilizing the rooms width that could sit 6-8 people and maxing out the throw distance with the 14ft depth. the advantage of that configuration to me is it's a much more intimate seating arrangement and doesn't give the room a singular use feel/layout everyone can interact comfortably and you could still easily fit a large screen and have adequate distance from the "money" seats, but there would be some compromise for those that would likely be too close on the ends.

Exactly. Aren't there on the market smaller speakers but with enough power? Can you imagine watching films in IMAX or any other cinema with bunch of gigantic speakers all over the place.

[@bighands69]

Base can resonate through a building due to the low frequencies that emanate from such a speaker but that is not to say you cannot have base just do not over do it. What is more important for you is clarity of sound rather than being loud. Even a bose system for you would sound great but you get that level of sound for a lot less money. Large speakers do not need to be for loudness but can offer a very clear sound to you so that every detail stands out. underestimate

I setup my projector in my bedroom with the logitech z906 5.1 system and watching movies is a lot of fun ☺️ everything I use and how I use it may not be ideal but it works all the same and I enjoy it! 🙏🏾
