    Good video. I wasn't aware that these Vicoustic panels are foam (I thought they were wood). *It's important to mention that 3 dimensional diffusion like these are ideally placed toward the back of the room. On the ceiling closer to the back wall, behind side surrounds on the side walls, and possibly on the back wall, on the outside of the rear speakers. If you use any diffusers in the front 2/3 of the room, they should be 2 dimensional.

    Do you have measurements with all the acoustic treatment as of today?
    Can you put the .mdat file to see the acoustics of the room?
    It's just curious to see the ETC,Filtered IR,Waterfall,Spectrogram,RT60 ( Topt,T20,T30 ).

    The room looks like it’s coming along nicely 😎
    I was going to get some of the RPG Skyline foam diffusers recently for my relatively small room (16ft x 13ft x 8.5ft) but was worried they would be too close to my MLP, guessing there’s a sweet spot for distance to the diffusion in a small room?)

    Just ordered a pack of four of these a few days ago. Will order more. Unfortunately I won't be able to put mine on the ceiling as it will interfere with my projector lens, so will get some others for the ceiling and put these diffusers on the wall to combat reflection points. Thanks for the video!

    • @hometheatergurus
      @hometheatergurus  Год назад +1

      You're welcome and thanks for watching. when you get them in i'd test them out on the ceiling just to make sure, just by placing one there by hand. They aren't too deep and even flush mounted most projectors lens center should be below them.

    Great video Steve, got a question for you, how important is it to re run room calibration such as ARC once you have made a drastic change to the rooms acoustic like this? Is it important to re run room correction and why? Thanks!

    • @hometheatergurus
      @hometheatergurus  Год назад +1

      Hey Nick, it depends. You should a minimum verify the responses. On stronger reflections like on any of the side, rear, front walls you'd surely want to rerun it as you have a lot more energy especially on side and rear walls.

    Did you lose a lot of light output having them recessed in the panels? I am going to install a grid of 3 panels x 4 panels above my seating. It just so happens that I have 4 of those ultra slim led down lights in the way (one in the center of each corner panel. I was hoping to try cutting the holes out with a hole saw from the back of the DC3. But using the knife might be a better option. I was also thinking that I could try coming up with a method to extend the light down, so it sits more flush with the tile (maybe use a pipe or something like that).

    • @hometheatergurus
      @hometheatergurus  Год назад

      Hey Shaggs, No i didn't lose any but these are a narrow cone (dispersion) light. They're also just task lights so their purpose is just to give some light if i'm on my laptop or eating etc while using the room. If you had wide dispersion lights used to light up the room then yeah, they'd hurt the light output for you.

    How high is your ceiling? Wondering too the left to right distance of your atmos channels. It looks like they may be a bit more than a 30% angle but hard to judge from the youtube video. I imagine you would want to leave at least a foot spacing between speaker and diffusion panel?

    • @hometheatergurus
      @hometheatergurus  Год назад

      Hey AJ. I have 12' ceilings. Those top mids are not active and the top front and top rear are closer inward. See ep 49. I do a lot of testing in this room.

    Is putting on the ceiling better than on the back wall? I have an angled ceiling, wondering if back wall would be better

    • @doublet147
      @doublet147 Год назад

      What I've learned is that the back wall is another great spot for them. Unless your main seating is close to the wall. If not, ideally, you want to place them on the outside of your rear speakers (in between the rear speakers should be absorbers). Also, placing them toward the rear of the room behind the side surrounds (side walls) is a good position.

    • @hometheatergurus
      @hometheatergurus  Год назад

      I have different treatments on the back wall. You can use them on "some " areas of a back wall but you have to be careful where you put them. You need some absorption as well in specific areas.

    • @doublet147
      @doublet147 Год назад +2

      I don't know that you should with the ceiling being so low. I'm in the same situation (7ft 8in ceiling). I'm halfway through my panel installation in my HT, and I'm going to buy some & try it out (see if sounds correct). I couldn't find any definitive info on it, but it is mentioned (by specialists) that you ideally want some distance away from them (ex. don't put them on the rear wall if your seating is close to it).

      @doublet147 Год назад +2

      ​@@Sukotto85 HT ceiling panel update: I tried them out and I personally chose to not keep them. The low mids sounded thick (less clear). The midrange exhibited similar characteristics, but only 50% of the time. It sounded like the inverse of quantization (pertaining to music) at times and with certain frequencies. I hope that helps. I'm sorry if that is not super clear. I am a retired audio engineer, and that's the most correct way I could describe it. Let me know if you have any questions. Also, I discovered a company that apparently creates a product similar in function (not exactly in appearance) that lessens the needed distance for the same outcome. I'm going to try them out next.

    Just google primitive root calculator.
    The hard part was cutting and sanding so they end up the same width and correct length .
    Takes a while though. But worth it
