Nathan,

The ceiling rack system hides the hydraulic hoses, audio, video and power cables.
Eventually, they will be stuffed with shallow equipment, DC lighting and monitoring devices.
The panels not in use shall be treated with closed cell foam and rigid fiberglass.

I purchased 21' RGB LED strips that will be mounted below the ceiling racks.
We also plan to add a soft treatment on the outrigger framing just below the ceiling racks.
The LED RGB lights will be diffused by a smoked Plexiglas.

The ceiling has a rubberized paint covering; we plan to mount acoustical clouds in a few places.

Believe it or not, the room is ruler flat acoustically, with just a couple of nodes that we plan to design and install tuned traps to handle those frequencies.

I'm waiting until we install the split-air ductless heat pumps before we address the tuned bass traps and ceiling clouds.

Is that how the floor will fold up for transport?

Thanks Daire,

I cannot wait until you step into the room.
The picture only does some justice.

The overall dimensions of the collapsed box is 27' long 8' wide.
Roughly 22.5' of the 27' box expands to about 14' wide.

The floor does indeed fold up for transport.
The console (when needed) shall ride on one of the outrigger (slide-out) sides.
This floor design keeps the room isolated from outside noise better than any dual expando I've been in.
