here are some pics as you can see its a bit off a shthole
I had my shed robbed, in a quite neighborhood and a secure yard. they literally cut a hole in wall of the shed because they couldn’t get through the door.
remember when people know what you have they will stake you out.
Hmmm, i’d go with flood lights, Entrenched machine gun nests, barbed wire and possibly some land mines. A couple of booby traps never hurt anyone either.
On a lighter note, a quick google search produced this.
Im not having any luck searching all i see crap skytec package im looking for a real good soundsytem. is it best to get monitor speakers 4 of them for my decks or pa ,active or what. what do people recomend I want 4 or more speakers but a high quality product. that can be loud and quality sound
if you’re going to sound proof you need to seal it up 100%. Soundproofing is done by creating an air tight room. This means you’ll have to take a step back and take all the plywood off the walls & insulate with a sound proofing membrane. There are multiple ways of obtaining this air tight seal. Google that. Exterior motion lights are a really good way to keep people away. If they can be seen, they generally won’t want to be in that area for theft. An alarm system thats connected to your house is also a really good idea.
Also, when you sound proof, don’t forget to do the ceiling. Good luck with this project. Don’t let people sway you from your ideas but do take precautions. Insurance , lighting, locks & even the position of this unit will play a big role in whether or not it will get rolled.
I think surround sound is a horrible idea, get a good set of studio monitors and work your producing and djing off that, “loud” shouldn’t be what you’re after but rather “quality.”
As for sound proofing you can do it either on a budget, or all out. If you’re on a budget, foam placed in correct places will help a bit, but you won’t soundproof as much as you cancel out standing soundwaves and making the acoustics of the room better. If you want to take it all the way, you could build a “room-in-room”, as many do for their home theathers. That way you’ll make the shed pretty soundproof. But remember that windows and doors are big leaks when it comes to sound.
Decorating the place; Make sure that you think of ergonomics, that the desks and chairs are adjustable / correct height for you. Shelving and cabinets for storing things you don’t use to often can be good. If you have room, a couch or comfy chair to just relax and enjoy life and music. Get some good quality studio monitors, best thing to have in a dj/producer-studio. Else it’s just you’re imagination that is the limt, lighting and art/posters etc can make for a good atmosphere.
