    Looks like I need a new pre/pro

    Well the reason why I went Atmos was because I got a new AVR. Actually let me back up. It all started when I got the new display (77' LG C4) and with the new display I immediately had problems with connections etc. with my old AVR (Yamaha RX-V679). Since the AVR was so old (2014) I just...

    Looks like I need a new pre/pro

    You know both thiings can be true right?! I can say having just recently gone the atmos route (5.4.2 from 7.1) that there is a difference that makes a difference. Its more enveloping and immersive. You get more of the "I'm in the middle of the action" type feel than with only a single layer...

    Possible Integra DHC 40.1 replacement

    I'm definitely not the one to keep anyone caught up on current events but I upgraded to a new(to me) AV receiver and it was a 2023 model. All I know is Atmos, Aura 3-D, and some kind of DTX codec was new to me but I have no idea if it is the latest. When do the holographic projectors come out...

    Sub Woofer question

    The type of sub (sealed v ported) does not make a difference. If it is properly designed and adequately powered it should do what it is supposed to do. So the real difference is ported subs should have a higher output down to the port tuned freq. below the port tune it will roll off very...

    What do you mean 'seems'? That is literally exactly what you are doing.

    Sub Woofer question

    1. Adding a second sub will usually make the overall frequency response of the whole room better for the LFE. Every room has interactions with the sound waves that will cause peaks and nulls in certain freq. ranges. I would say the main benefit is the better overall response across the room...

    Possible Integra DHC 40.1 replacement

    With you being in the time crunch you are in I would look at the classifieds in your area. Might be dicey trying to get a new purchase reliably shipped to you if you order something online. Can you connect the sound through analog to test if it is indeed the HDMI board?

    I was trying some new adjustments and tooling around with the HT yesterday and did a bunch of re-calibrations etc. and things are getting even better. Question for any other PSA sub owners (or those in the know), the gain structure on these subs is not typical. It seems that the gain does not...

    Okay so a little bit of confusion/bewilderment. I mentioned in post #32 that CEC stopped working without me changing anything. Well last night it started working again. I did nothing to initiate any change. What in the world is happening here?

    PSA 15V - not clean and rumbling

    Shoot an email to PSA. Was it just with that one scene? Can you replicate the same sound with different material? Is it volume related? Is it source related? I always wondered if down firing subs would eventually have 'sag' as the surrounds age and wear. My SVS is over 15 yrs old and I'm...

    So its been almost a month and I am still getting things settled but I think I have some pretty definitive conclusions. Background: Got the 2200 working in the mix. Had to get a A-D switch cause the 2200 only has analog outputs and the receiver only has digital video inputs. Picture was...

    New Onkyo TX RZ50

    No need to stop now! You can't have that new TV and new receiver sending out signals to old speakers. Don't be acting all new around here!

    LG C5 set - Costco sale - any reason not to upgrade?

    I too moved up from 65' to 77' and I originally thought it would be too large for my viewing. In fact the wife was trying to push me to get the 83' B4 with was the same price but I was already thinking the 77' would be pushing it. Once I got it in and settled, I found that not only is it not...

    I originally ordered 6 of the 6lb 2" panels and 2 of the 8lb 4" panels, so it should have come six 2" panels in one box and two 4" panels in another box. I only got one box of the 2" 6lb panels. When I contacted them they saw that I only received the one box and shipped the other box out but...

    I sense you are where I was...so my first question is, what level of actual hands on construction do you want/are willing to perform? For me I didn't mind putting them together but there was no way I was going to measure and cut and clamp and etc. Don't have any of the tools needed nor the...
