Hello people. Recently decided to strip the garage room back to bare and make good to put potentially a 65" 4K TV or projector if that would be better use but I think the space may be too small. Obv on a budget and currently got a Yamaha 673 and 5.1 Cambridge audio minx 21 and x200 sub. Just wondering what people's suggestions on what to do. As you look at the electric meter that's the internal wall to the house and to the right that's the external and wife loves to moan when I'm in the moment watching a decent film as our room is above the living room (reason to move to the garage). So to reduce sound travel would it be better to have the front facing speakers facing the external wall or would it not really make much difference. I usually have the Yamaha on -28 on the volume control but hopefully a little louder when this is setup. Suggestions and all advice welcome.

The room is 2.7m wide by 4.7m long.

Internal wall is to the left. External wall is where the boiler is. The internal wall goes to the stairs so not connected to direct to our main bedroom anyway which is about 2m across from the internal wall in the garage
 
I'd go for something like this:

Floating wall for the tv, some neat bias lighting - would look smart.

Thanks. With that viewing distance what would be the ideal size screen. 4K content. Will also be putting my computer in to the left of the tv (desk). So I can HDMi my pc and play steam catalogue in 1080p straight to tv.
 
Ok tv wise I'm looking at the Sony xd9305. 3D and android tv with all catchup apps and kodi/plex from pc if need be.
