Some updates, a few years later- back at it... TV area, and hopefully ordering some New Age cabinets for this area

All done, now time to tape and mud

One wall done last night, other 3 to follow this evening

I was thinking last night I really should put a duplex in, I probably will. I already bought Polk Audio RC85i speakers, I think they should fit the bill

most concrete base is usually a (3/4" minus) crushed rock with fines in it. I've poured a many yards of concrete in my life and I would never choose sand over crushed base. If he is going to have sand on it for a while, it will collect quite a bit of foreign material and make for a bad subbase...

Yes, it will be fine. Like the other members say, ensure that the asphalt is compacted fairly well. Has it been grinded or milled? the smaller and more unified the asphalt mills are, the better compaction you'll get. Its nearly impossible to get adequate compaction with 1" material surrounded...

Good to hear, I need to finish my drywall and insulation, then its time

Looks Super GOOD
