I'd also second _Six_'s cautions. Basements always have really major low frequency standing wave issues because of the nature of the where they are -- LF has nowhere to go becuase of the solid walls everywhere! So whatever else you do, you will need to install large, serious bass traps and they will eat up a lot of your current floor space, quite posible making the two-room idea unworkable.
