Dedicated Audio Room Lighting Ideas?

I just learned that my email address was not updated in the AGON records during this thread and someone attempted to send me email unsuccessfully. It is now, so please resend. Again, thanks for all the input.

I used the Lutron GRAFIK Eye.

In regards to 5/8 drywall sheets,each weights 100lbs and if you are planning to do your ceilings with double 5/8's have extra 3-4 helpers available .I did my entire 3 floor house with 5/8 drywall only the exterior walls as per building firecode,all ceilings are done in 1/2 .It wasn't easy to lift the sheets in place let me tell you.I did insulate between floor joists and interior wall studs using Roxul acoustical insulation.No sound comes through as far as I can tell and in general the rooms feel more cozy.Just a reminder in case you are not aware of it but there is got to be at least an inch of air space between the acoustical insulation and drywall for it to work properly.So don't pack it in there.Actually I like the Disco ball and strobes myself and I might just install some in my listening room for when playing dance music.
Best of luck with your project.

I use tubes.....whole 31 of them, just enough light to find my remote control.
Now seriously, I think that your idea of creating a desire listening mood by using your room's lighting is great.
It was also "kind" of important while constructing my new listening room. General rule, combination of lights and dimmers will give you what you are looking for. Low ceiling is kind of an obstacle that you will have to overcome with smart solutions and ideas.
Above suggestions are all great and will point you in the right direction.
If you are planning on incorporating acoustic treatments, there are great lighting ideas from the company that keeps me informed about "what's new and cool" in the room deco.
It is a ceiling acoustic panels (about 2'X2')that can be joined together with fiber optic lighting build-in. The effect of a sky at night is what you get. What I like about it is functionality with a peace of COOL.

Good luck and happy listening

Yioryos: Thanks for the tip about the space around the insulation as I was unware of the need for that. Yes, I estimate the suspended double drywall ceiling will weight at least 1500 lbs. The number of sound isolation clips was determined to keep the maximum load on each under 36 lbs (that's a 2.5:1 safety factor). I'll need lots of volunteers...

Mrjstark: I do envy the high ceiling on your room as it gives so many more lighting options.
