Michael, congratulations on being able to raise the number of partners you’ve been able to share with us from cedia this year. Thanks to your efforts and connections, we are living the cedia experience vicariously through the lens of your camera…..it’s evident it was a great experience.
The Jeff Beck clip is from the "Jeff Beck: Performing This Week... Live at Ronnie Scott's" bluray. It's one of my favorite concert films. Definitely recommended.
Nice to see Alcon’s getting a mention. I did a CRMS MKii based setup for my living room. Dave Rahn was fantastic. Before I purchased. as I was trying to figure out if I could make it work, Dave sent me a sentinel amp so I could see how the fan noise would be. Fantastic company.
I’ll reply even though not who who asked. They have an ability to play loud and clear better than any other speaker I’ve ever heard. But what they do that will blow your mind is “IMAGE” across the entire coverage pattern of the design. One can sit what appears to be way out of the coverage pattern yet have perfect imaging from left to right on any size screen. They are pricey once account for the Sentinel amplifiers that must be purchased with the speakers but are not any more expensive than most other Pro gear all in all.
I’ve had my living room setup with Mkii 3ways for about 2.5 years now and love every minute of them. I do have a serious dedicated theater as well which is what Walter calibrated for me but the Alcons are just special in many ways.
Dang! Sounds like a great loudspeaker design. I sure would like to hear that system in that room. WAY beyond my income level, but WOW that would be great! Micheal, I have to wonder if you've ever thought to yourself - "Darn it, my system doesn't compare at all to this" after a couple demos in other theaters?
Never once. My system sounds amazing but I can also fully appreciate other systems, even if they exceed mine and still be perfectly content with my own.
I like how you give people a chance to answer the question without constant interruption -- it's a lost art these days. Also I'm really glad you did that Alcons interview as they have exciting technology -- Walter seems to be a really great representative for the brand
Executing a DBA at a tradeshow, nice. When these Cedia "soundrooms" first became a thing in '2000, I recognized immediately the killer performance in LF decay times in room. Bass energy wasn't returned to the listener like a typical listening room. Acoustically, the tight decay times resulted in very resolving bass range. Problem was contamination of an adjacent neighboring soundroom. Solution, alternating demo timeframes. This Alcons room, I would've enjoyed experiencing it.
The law of diminishing return is going to be different for each person. Some are willing to pay an astronomical amount for a 1% improvement while others would need a 50% or higher performance boost to feel something would be worth it. We all have to figure out what will meet our needs and fit our budget.
400 thousand for a projector, (WOW) that’s big bucks, personally I would like to know the true cost of making this equipment, Also if someone bought a cheap projector, how much difference between that and the big bucks projector ,is the true value there?
Michael, you gotta start playing these systems. To just talk about it and not letting your viewers hear the gear is plain stupid. Yeah, yeah, yeah,copywrite this and that. You can get good bass-heavy tracks from Epidemic Sound and you're good to go. Play the audio man as well as some film scenes.
I'm always open to suggestions on how I can provide better content for my audience. But I believe expecting to "hear the gear" (especially a multi-channel Dolby Atmos system from a lapel microphone or even a high end stereo or binaural microphone) is nonsense and offers zero value to the community. Let me get this straight, you want to experience a 9.4.6 Dolby Atmos system from a mono lapel microphone which will then be massively compressed by RUclips only to be listened to by over 50% of my audience from their mobile device? That is what I find plain stupid. But thanks for the suggestion.
It's interesting to see these types of theaters, but that many subs are complete overkill, especially for a room of that size. I'd imagine one Perlisten D215s could fill that room up with plenty of bass.

I closed my eyes and it was like Arnie was explaining everything to Michael 😂
…What a great informative guy! 👍
Fun fact: Born and raised less than 5 miles from where Arnie has been. There must be something in the water…💦😅
Alcons, my dream system! Awesome segment and awesome demo!

Thank you Frankie. I still have several more to edit.

Man Michael, you are to be commended on your work ethic! This channel is going to explode and you deserve it. You work your tail off!
Thank you Sam. I’ve never been afraid of hard work. This is just the beginning,
@@Youthmantake me on I love this kind of work...I'll represent you in Europe.
Walter is such a nice and enthusiastic guy. Thank you for this coverage!
I’m glad you enjoyed the video
World's all top brands in one place! We are enjoying your videos!! Thanks Michael!!!
Wow what an awesome interview/s these guys really know their products! This stuff looks super awesome!
I really need a demo of an Alcons system.
This was a really good one Michael!
Thank you kindly glad you enjoyed it

Awesome!
How do you find the CRMS mk2, Compared to other alternatives?
I’ll reply even though not who who asked.
They have an ability to play loud and clear better than any other speaker I’ve ever heard. But what they do that will blow your mind is “IMAGE” across the entire coverage pattern of the design.
One can sit what appears to be way out of the coverage pattern yet have perfect imaging from left to right on any size screen.

How was the noise on the amps?
I wish more commercial theaters like AMC, Regals, Cinemark, etc would use more interesting speakers like Alcons & Mag Cinema
It was great to see you again Michael and thank you for stopping by our booth and checking out the demo! 😊
Thank you Nigel. I’m looking forward to visiting your new showroom.
Dang! Sounds like a great loudspeaker design. I sure would like to hear that system in that room. WAY beyond my income level, but WOW that would be great!

Wow, I totally missed there booth! Nice find!
Oh wow, you missed a treat. They were right next to Grimani Systems room
Hi, Sounds like a great loudspeaker design, i like it so much
this looked awesome!
It was incredible.
So how much do you want for your JTRs? I'm in Orlando so I can pick them up. 😁
Nice try 🤣
😂😅
@@Youthman
I figured I would give it a shot since you were so impressed with those speakers... and maybe I could get a "Youthman deal" 😂
@@bigelile07you never score if you don't shoot😅😂
Walter is who calibrated my room.
Walter is a great guy!
My pleasure Alex! Hope to see you soon again
Shout out to Joey the lens master general.
How did the Griffyn compare to your new nz8? Something you would consider in the future or was the difference not worth the premium?
I don’t have $80,000 (probably more) to spend on a projector so it wouldn’t matter how much better it is. 🤣
@@Youthman I think the real question is to the diminishing returns per dollar Michael?
The law of diminishing return is going to be different for each person. Some are willing to pay an astronomical amount for a 1% improvement while others would need a 50% or higher performance boost to feel something would be worth it. We all have to figure out what will meet our needs and fit our budget.
Was that the terminator at the start ?
To put these into perspective people who heard them, were they the best at the show or was something else like the pro audio technology demo?
400 thousand for a projector, (WOW) that’s big bucks, personally I would like to know the true cost of making this equipment,
Also if someone bought a cheap projector, how much difference between that and the big bucks projector ,is the true value there?
🤯💪🏿
Walter is such a cool guy but looks like he should have been a villain in a Die Hard movie😅😂
I’ll take that as a compliment 😈😅 Actually I would love that, I am certain it can be quite fulfilling 🙃
@@walterzenzarufortmuller8406 it was 100% a compliment. You have that smart sophisticated witty Die Hard villain look
🤓🙌
@@walterzenzarufortmuller8406 Walter do u have a RUclips channel would love to see more content of the set ups and demos

Yes. One sub can be great for the primary listening position. Move over one seat and the frequency response can be a hot mess
