I know with recording setups there's different ways to skin a cat. There are youtubers like Michael Nielsen who have more of a professional studio setup where the amps are in another room, the sound is isolated with everything mic'd up with the audio he hears coming from his studio monitors.
On the other hand you have something like That Pedal Show where they're in the room with the amps, hearing and feeling every note. Their DB meters show about 100db in the room and they don't wear ear plugs and claim to not be doing any real damage to their ears.
If you had it your way how would you do it? And if you were dead set on being in the room with the amps, how big would the room have to be before you'd feel safe cranking a 100w full stack without ruining your ears?
I'm planning on moving fairly soon and am going to try and setup a home studio. Currently I'm in a non-treated 18x20 room which is definitely is too small. I have the budget to do it right - meaning build a room within a room, with proper sound proofing material. Any suggestions would be great since I don't know what the hell I'm doing.
