French Doors

Thanks Lars. When you say "frame it to standard size", are you recommending to get a dry wall done? Yes, I will have to work with a contractor. The audio shop from where I purchased my amp can do acoustics treatments. But I am not sure if they can do anything about the door.

Honestly guys - THANK YOU. I should have posted this last week. I was not sure how my question would be "received" in the forums as it was not related to amps/players/cables/speakers and so I hesitated.

Lots of good ideas and things I did not think of - like thin glass on French doors. The only reason for coming up with French doors was because the size of the opening is so wide and (as Theo mentioned) has a WAF. You guys have given me great points that I can discuss with any contractor who can do this door for me. I am thinking of a 2 solid doors to minimize vibrations and from "acoustics" perspective.

Again, Thank You one and all. Great ideas!!

Unsound,
Good point. The room has that single opening on the back of the 13' wall. This is actually the "formal living room" that I will convert into a music room. As you enter the house, it is the first room on your left.
That was one of the reasons for getting a french door. But I am open to various options and ideas.

Lars,
I will be getting the french-doors installed in the next week. Frankly I do not know how it will work out, since this room is kind of small (13 X 12). I envy all the people with big/medium rooms. But I will have to look at some good room treatments, since this is my home and not an apartment, where it was not an option. My wife seems to be fine with me spending on room treatments. So once the door is done, I will focus on room treatments.

Wow....a bit late. While the french door was put in way back, I don't use that room for audio anymore. Had a new room built in the basement.

LOL!

@4krowme,
Yeah, start digging and let me know when you finish your room :-)
If you really have to know about the "build", go to my system page and I have provided the details in the description.
