OK, I know there are lots of books on the electronics. But what I am more interested in are the considerations that go into room design of a HT. Examples of the kinds of questions I need answers to:
- How do I best proportion the room?
- Should I enclose the projector for noise reasons, and if so, what about cooling?
- I see all these rooms with stages at the front. I read about vague acoustic benefits of such stages, but cannot find any real explanations.
- What are the best room proportions? If I can't do the ideal proportions, what are the consequences?
- Is there a certain amount of room required between the seating and the side walls?
- What's e minimum ceiling height needed (and consequences for violating)? I see recommendations of having 8-10 foot ceilings but that's an unattainable luxury. And is it a good trade off to give up some ceiling height for acoustic drop ceiling?
- Do I need special heating ducts and returns?
- What about acoustic wall treatments? I read you want sound deadening "but not too much." Is there any any way to quantify this?
I recognize I can hire somebody to figure all this out for me, but surely there are books that explain it all. I've seen http://www.home--theater.com but wonder how good an eBook is where every google hit is a site selling it. Thanks!

Mark Flishman (from Home Theater Magazine) has a update to his guide.
F. Alton Everest has a book called "Sound Studio Construction on a Budget" which is a great book on basic room acoustics. He has 'formulas' in the back for several sound studios - and 2 for home-theater rooms.
You might also check out CEDIA: http://www.cedia.net/
This is a organization that teaches stores/installers how to do everything from basic to high-end media rooms.
You might also check out AVS Fourms. They have a section on dedicated HT rooms. Reading the designs and issues the users faced will probably answer most of your questions - and generate more.
Hope this helps.

what is home theatre.? give me technical details?
Q. regarding speakers, sound. does it has wireless speakers
Answer
Home Theater refers to recreating a movie theater in your house.
A true home theater is a room that has been specifically designed to be a small movie theater. Everything from a large screen (either a projector or large flat panel of some sort), surround sound speakers, even theater-style seating and heavy sound absorbing curtains on the walls, all contribute towards creating the perfect room for watching movies at home.
Most of us don't have the space for a true home theater, but we can still put together the best system within our particular budget.
Technically, any receiver capable of 5.1 surround sound or better is considered a home theater. The speakers can be wired or wireless - this makes no difference. What is important is the placement of the speakers. You'll have 2 front speakers, which are the main ones for sound. 1 center speaker, mainly used for dialog. 2 rear speakers, for the rear effects. And finally 1 subwoofer, usually placed in a corner, out of the way, which provides all the low rumbling noises from explosions or deep tones from music. This is where the "5.1" comes from - 5 speakers, 1 subwoofer. Other arrangements are possible, but the movie in question has to have an audio signal on it that takes advantage of those extra speakers to get the full effect.
To get surround sound from your movies, your DVD or blu-ray player must be connected to the surround sound receiver with an audio cable that can carry a surround sound signal. Today, this includes optical audio cable, a digital co-ax cable, or a HDMI cable.
