Audio House

Ive been looking into buying a house once the lease is up on the house i am renting.

I have 4 critera, and they run in this specific order.
(price is not a criteria, we have a range and are looking within it)

1) Big enough for me, my Fiancee, our 2 dogs, and to eventually have a couple kids.

2) There needs to be a location of accoustic value where i can work on getting a good 2 channel rig, that is not in the way, yet not shoved out of site somewhere where i wont mess with it.

3) Needs a good Livingroom, NO TV nook shoved near a corner, must have room for surround setup. and must not be CRAMPED

4) Must have a basement, finished or unfinished that i can eventually modify to build a Theater and a Gym

PLEASE TELL ME IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH CRITERIA LIKE THIS!!!!!

I was talking to a buddy and he said "Why dont you buy the house you are already in after yer lease is up?"
I replied "The basement is an accoustic wreck, and there is no good place upstairs for a 2 channel rig"

then they give me this incredulous look, like "What the hell is wrong with you? you are deciding on a house based on how well it will work with your stereo?"

To which i reply, well,... Yeah... If im gonna cough up 250,000 for a house(denver is very expencive) i want it to work for all my purposes.

They usually reply along the lines of "Yer on crack"

I hope im not the only one that looks at things like this.

I dont see why i cannot have all my criteria met.
