Here are some "after" images of Lone Star Theater!

Aisle from riser

The lighting in the theater is controlled through the Universal Remote Control MX-850 via the Lutron Spacer lighting control. There are three programmable lighting circuits, one for the recessed lights around the perimeter, one for the sconces on the pilasters, and a third for the recessed rope lighting around the top of the pediment that encircles the room. Different lighting schemes can be programmed into the Spacer master control, and called up using the MX850. The house lighting automatically dims when the movie begins.

The theater dimensions are approximately 16' x 22'. The back half of the floor has an 8" rise, and there are two side aisles with steps and recessed lighting on a photo eye to activate the step lights when the house lights are dimmed. There are six Berkline 090 powered recliners. The theater has a bathroom, and the added equipment room also doubles as the media storage. There is also a small refridgerator. At the back of the theater is a full bar with granite top and glass shelves.

I completed the theater on Christmas Eve of 2006 after more than a year of construction. We presented Pink Floyd's Pulse concert for the premier opening of the theater.

View from back of theater

Lone Star Theater boasts a Pioneer Elite receiver, a Denon disc player, a Panamax power conditioner, and a SharpVision HD DLP front projection system with a 100" Screen Innovations Theater Reference screen. The speakers are wall-mounted Definitive Technologies Mythos speakers. There are two Martin Logan Dynamo subwoofers.

The "hush box" has two PC cooling fans mounted in each of its sides. These fans are activated when the projector fires up to keep air flow into and out of the box.
