Star Wars Theater by F1 Audio

The design of this Star Wars themed home theater started well before ground broke on this 4500 sq. ft. home. An extra amount of earth was removed to achieve the desired depth of 14'. The completed room is quite large at 23' wide x 35' long comfortably seating 12 in full leather theater chairs. The 126" / 2.35:1 Da-Lite screen also includes motorized masking for 16:9 viewing. To achieve near plasma tv levels of brightness, a Runco VX22i with autoscope and anamorphic lens was installed displaying a perfect 1080p image on the huge screen. All of the pictures on the side walls and in the entry way were hand painted on canvas by a long time friend of the home owners. The (3) Krell 450M's and dual Velodyne 18" subwoofers sit behind the screen wall.

The next phase will be to upgrade the front main speakers to Aerial 20T's or Focal Scala's for higher 2 channel performance and replace the Velodyne's with 2 JL Audio Gothams!

The Force is strong in this one!!!!

Wow what a room! I'm still salivating just looking at it. I love the touches you made all around and the attention to detail. All I can hear now in my head is Vader's theme.

Do you think you could have a custom movie chair made to look like the Emperor's throne from RotJ? Also I remember the lightsaber remotes from Brookstone or Sharper Image that were based off the hilt from Luke's saber in RotJ that would go great as well with the chair.

Again phenomenal job all around. I guess if I hit the Mega millions tonight I'm going to have to contact J Paul's Design to make me a HT theater based on one of the Rebel bases. ;)
