Love how excited you are showing us yours rights and wrongs.
I love home theater 😁! Thanks for watching!
6:25 Sony Oleds actually use the screen as the speaker. It works very well for low/ medium volume. Voice clarity is excellent.
Been enjoying your videos as a newbie to your channel. Keep them coming. Saved money from your Gravity Blu-ray video. 👍🏼
Awesome! Thank you!
I agree with what you said about room treatments. Couldn't believe the difference. To perhaps voice how I would describe it, I would agree that it makes the listening environment feel more "cozy." The dialog is so much clearer and discernable. There's much better channel separation. The surrounds are localized, so instead of getting a cacophony of sounds, you can discern that something coming out of the rear left channel for instance, actually sounds like it's coming from back and to the left of your listening position. I would absolutely urge anyone that's interested in improving their audio, treat your room first, work on your equipment second. There's plenty of great companies out there, plus companies like GIK offer completely customizable art panels if you're not interested in the utilitarian modern look.
Also, yeah. Paint the room a flat dark and non reflective color.
I really like your setup!! So glad I found your channel! I think we may live near the same area cause that basement closet setup looks really familiar! 🎉 maybe one day! 🎉
Thanks, glad you like it? Are you on the local FB group page?
Good job
Seems like you got the "I have money" purchases stuff right, well because you have the money to do so (room treatment, amps, processor, screen, projector, and an actual dedicated room). All pretty easy when you have the money and space to do so. If you did the installs yourself well great job because it does look very clean
I was just thinking how cool it would be if all of us home theatre enthusiasts just happen to live on the same street 😊
Good video, btw and yes, ease of access to the back of one's components should never be underestimated. (lucky bastard) couldn't happen to a nicer Guy 😀
That would be awesome! HT crawl every month. Thanks 😁!
Good list of topics to discuss, thumbs up.
What thickness did you choose on your acoustic panels?
Thanks! The absorption panels are 5.25” thick.
@@GeorgeTheaterAtHome Thank you for sharing.
Wheel of Fortune should never be bigger than Star Wars. After having a scope screen, I don’t think I could ever go back to looking at gray bars at the top and bottom of 75% of my movies.
Thanks for the video. What LCR speakers are you using and subwoofers?
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. I have the GoldenEar Invisa SPS for my LCR speakers and 2 Episode 15” subwoofers.
Awesome job on your theater! The scrren size / speakers behind / room treatment. Now I have to re-plan a few things. lol great vid
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! Good luck with your HT!
Nice vid… however I’m curious when you said you can hear a difference between an AVR processing the audio verses a dedicated processor but said you just went the processor route and stated it sounded better… how did you test this since you went pure processor with separates from the beginning?
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
That’s a great question. I’ve listened to other theaters that use AVR’s. I’ve also owned AVRs in the past, just not in this room. I guess to do a true A/B comparison, I should hook up an AVR in my theater and test it against my processor. Hmm, that may make for an interesting video…🤔
@@GeorgeTheaterAtHome that would be an awesome video!
How tall are your ceilings? Great video!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! The ceiling is 7’8”
Hi, How is the Crown XLS 1002? I'm thinking of going full out separate and looked at those. How do you use them and how have you configured it? I have read that it is not the best fit with having Gain nobs. What are your thoughts?
I like the crowns. There is a slight speaker hiss from them, but I have to put my right up in the speaker to hear it so it isn’t a big deal. The gain knobs are fine, I set them to about 75%. If you are concerned about fan noise, get a Crown without a loud fan. My equipment is in a closet so I don’t hear them. Good luck!
I would like to see you do a test of 7.1 vs 5.1.2 see which one has more of an impact
I did a test of 5.1 vs 9.2.4 Atmos. Here’s the video
ruclips.net/video/IjNyCmkUwSk/видео.html
@@GeorgeTheaterAtHome yeah I’ve seen that one I’m looking at a more entry level to Atmos as many new people join us in our quest to build our ultimate home theater setup 7.1 receivers are fairly cheap avrs that support Atmos and if they already have an older 5.1 setup would it be more beneficial for them to pickup rear surrounds or center heights I’ve heard other surround sound channels talk about it but no one does actual comparisons like you do and I think it would be a great test
I really enjoy your videos and I make it a habit not to give any "helpful" feedback (unless asked) about anyone's HT efforts - whatever you enjoy is great! But my OCD is getting to me... In my media room I have one GIK acoustic panel on my left (brick) wall, there is no right wall, at the first reflection point for my left tower. With my lights off, my room is very dark and the TV picture "floats" as there is nothing else visible. But the freaking GIK white name plate they put on every piece was annoying the hell out of me. So I took some electrical tape and just covered it up - it's not visible unless you put your nose up to the panel. I just had to mention it. Continue with the great content, lots of fun comparing your journey to me own.
I love this story! I also have weird little quirks about things like that. Fortunately I haven’t been bothered by the white name plate. However, now that you’ve planted the idea in my mind…😆 I may have to employ your electrical tape tactic. Glad you enjoy the videos and thanks for watching!
I also need ir repeater for my Panasonic 4K Player 😮 what model you have?
Here’s the link to the IR repeater. Thanks for watching!

@@GeorgeTheaterAtHome thx.i have the ub900 ,so there is one USB for HDD on the Back.Should work,right? Front USB is not good because the Front Cover must be Open .
What screen are you using? I need to upgrade my screen. I built my screen out of pine using the Seymour UF acoustic transparent material and the pine is starting to bow. My screen is 142 inches, 16.9.
I have the Dragonfly acoustically transparent Ultraweave. 145” 16:9. Let me know if you would like more info 👍

@@GeorgeTheaterAtHome cool, do I order it through them? Also how is the weave? What is it comparable to? Thanks again for your help.
@@percybedford6266 you’ll need to order thru a dealer of SnapOne products. I am a dealer and can send you a quote if you’re interested.
Do you have any masking system on your screen? If not, it’s error #11
Why haven't you installed AURO 3D ? This system turns every movie into a Dolby Atmos movie (almost).
Point 11 : Popcorn machine (little joke)
My processor (Anthem AVM70) doesn’t support AURO 3D. It does however have several upmixers that do a fairly decent job. I do need a popcorn machine! Thanks for watching!
Having a closet would be nice. Unfortunately the room I could convert to that is actually the laundry room.
So I have to make do with equipment on the front stage. I'm thinking of going with two short/narrow component stands and have them flank my center channel
I think 17' away from 145" 16:9 is too far. I personally think 9-10' is where you wanna be especially for CinemaScope. That's me though.
What projector do you use? Have you had it calibrated? Could we get a video showing your walls with the lights off and projector going? I am in an apartment with white walls and I was thinking about painting or making acoustically transparent blackout panels.
I have the Epson 6050UB. I’ve only done the standard focus and screen fit calibration so far. That’s a good idea. I will have to make a video showing what it looks like when I watch movies. Thanks for watching!
@@GeorgeTheaterAtHome Damn! That projector must be pretty beast! I just got my first big boy projector, the Epson 2250, and it's pretty good but I want more better.
Do you remember where you purchased the wall sconces? I am looking something I can place an adjustable bulb
I also like the diffusers, I have made a bunch of the other panels but no diffusions
@@ddent22 I bought the sconces from Amazon. Here’s the link

Did you not think about fabric/velvet covering on the walls???
Instead of the dark paint, or in addition to the paint?
@@GeorgeTheaterAtHome instead of. I’m building my cinema room now, and a big cost would be plastering the walls, and ceiling, leaving a hard surface, so the guys I’m getting my kit from have recommended a velveteen type stretch fabric with a 10mm or so foam back direct in the plasterboard. Would mean no actual acoustic panels dotted around, well, that’s the plan!!
Room is 6m x3.5m, screen should be a 130” diagonal.
pls reference the FOV degrees your image is. in stead of saying my screen is xx inches
34.4 degrees according to viewing distance calculator.
We all make mistakes or discover better options when we first set room up and correct them later on. Now fix the things you got wrong and do a video doing it... Ha Ha 🤣🤣
