Building a true Audioholics-grade home theater isn’t easy—it takes careful planning, smart integration, and the right gear. In this video, we reveal the challenges we faced and the compromises that had to made while designing and building our State-of-the-Art 9.5.4 home theater system. From room construction and acoustics to sound isolation, equipment selection, speaker/subwoofer placement, lighting, automation, and system integration—no detail was overlooked. See how we brought it all together to create a theater worthy of the @Audioholics name.
