Designing HVAC for a Hi Fi Listening Room Built Around $750,000 in Speakers
Most HVAC contractors think about two things: keeping the room comfortable and hitting the required airflow numbers. In a standard build, that is enough. In a high-performance sound isolated space, it is nowhere close.In this video, I walk through the HVAC design for a Hi-Fi listening room built around one of the most extraordinary speaker systems in North America and why every decision we made was non-negotiable.
You'll see how we approached CFM calculations, air terminal sizing, face velocity control, and baffle box design and why coordination across five parties is the real challenge, not the math.
If you're planning a high-performance listening room or recording space, the HVAC system is part of the design from the first conversation. Not an afterthought.
