    Great looking room. Love seeing how far youve come over the years, it gives me inspiration to one day have something like this when I finally own a home.
    I also really need to make the 40 minute drive to Audio Advice and check out that $300,000 theater room, wow!

      @@KevisFilms awesome thank you! I’d like to see start to finish, any additional equipment/programs (if needed), before/after graphs of time alignment would be cool and personal takeaways/benefits and whether it made just the main listening position better/all seats/or some seats more than others. I know it’s a lot but this isn’t well covered and I believe it to be the future go-to for tuning. So to have someone break it down into something more digestible would put you on the map. Thanks again sir!

    I need a great “in the box” starter home theater sound system and a receiver. What do you recommend on a $1500.00- $2500.00 budget?

    • @KevisFilms
      @KevisFilms  Месяц назад

      For a 5.1 I would do the following SVS package (all available from Amazon): Prime Center Speaker @ $400, (4) SVS Prime Satellite Speakers @ $350 a pair, SB-1000 Pro Sealed Subwoofer @ $600, and for the receiver I would go with a Denon X1800H 7.2 AVR @ $550. Grand total of $2,250 plus tax. You could eventually add 2 more speakers and make it a 5.1.2 Atmos. There are more economical 'true' in-a-box solutions, but you will be missing on having a decent subwoofer. Also, you would need to add 14-gauge speaker cables and RCA cable for the sub.
      How big of a room would you be using for your home theater? Depending on size, you might look a getting more efficient speakers such as Klipsch.

    Man your original setup was almost identical to what I have now 😂. Sounds good to my not knowing any better ears. Polk T-series towers, bookshelf and center with Bose cubes as height speakers running off a Sony receiver.

    Always admire people who are willing to get their hands dirty. As well as a sense of achievement, one will also feel immense pride. And BTW, on this occasion, rightly so too!
    Yes, I would imagine when it comes to the sonic abilities between yours and audio's advice 300k set up one might not interpret the sound has being hugely different. However, when pressing pause or mute, the noise floor within itself should become apparent, and I don't just mean from the components neither. In my experience, some of the biggest culprits for producing noise are actually unshielded cables. The better the quality of shielding the quieter the room shall become.

    Nice setup! I had all Klipsch for a long time with a cheap 1080p projector. Family movie night was the absolute best. Love the speakers behind the screen, I would have loved to gotten that far. Are you planning on an equipment rack eventually?

    • @KevisFilms
      @KevisFilms  3 месяца назад

      Thank you! I love family movie time! Popcorn, a snack and a drink!
      Maybe a rack way down the line. I like that the receiver gets plenty of air in the open.
