Hi Shane, big fan of your channel since 2019, on your experience can you recommend me which av receiver to buy NAD T778 or the Denon A1H? for a 7.1 speaker configuration considering sound quality and processing. Thank you and best regards from Mexico 🇲🇽
Great theatre and always passionate to watch your content. I also want to upgrade from NX7 to NZ7 or NZ8. Just one thing, why not front wides in your theatre?
Man for Ready Player One, Anthem ARC (MRX-1140) does a hell of a job with bass mgt. I also have Dirac and much preferred the ARC calibration. Monoliths or the Emotiva amps of the same wattage? I'm looking to add some power to my setup.
I have MRX1140 4k and Monolith 7x which I had right when it came out. It’s driving Persona LCR and 4 8” Elite Paradigm inceilings. I might go to Putify for LCR but I doubt I’d hear a difference more of a cabinet space management solution
Great camera work in this vid! Awesome new setup. I've never had a auto-calibration give me adequate bass. So I've always just redone the levels and EQ (then levels again after EQ) the way I did at real theaters which is probably not ideal for home stuff but I like it. My main issue is that the EQs at home are usually much more limited, usually something like 10 bands compared to the 31 it should be.
@@therealshaneleeReggie is either you going through a divorce & having to build a new theater OR a ploy to get more comments on your video from those that don't watch till the end.. I hope it's the latter.
Im drooling over that denon receiver but i love your set up and those servo subs god i wish i bought that rythmik but ohh well . Maybe ill buy 1 in the future and try it out .😊
Near OLED quality on a screen thats not huge? Why not save nearly $20K (projo + screen) and just get an 80”-class OLED? Or maybe swap it out for an 85” Bravia 9? That could get you a matching big sub and proper acoustic treatment.
God that is so sexy. I'm happy for you, man. Right now I live in an apartment and it's noisy with neighbors and a busy road right outside. Single pane windows and a door that lets noise through. It's impossible to be immersed or relaxed while watching a movie lol. I can't wait to get a house to do my room similar to yours!
@@therealshanelee but still doesnt have it. 42 THOUSAND cost the altitude 32. with that answer i confirm you're a joke. you have a usless processor that you needed to change because you coudnt take advantage of the 4k 120hz of the ps5/ xbox. 42!! lol
Dirac vs Audyssey ?, is it worth?, i bought this one on release, and the other day i remembered that Dirac was not an option on release, but now that it is, do you think its wrth the extra tediusness and extra mic , against Audyssey?
The r7t towers you have are rated to 400 watts the amplifiers you have only push 200 watts. Do they need more power or are they plenty with only the 200 watts? I ask because I am buying amps for my theater and I am so confused by how much power I actually need
Thanks for showing denon some love I'll have one in my endgame it can do 9.4.8 speaker configuration and has next gen gaming features,dtsx pro plus Dirac upgradable and much more it's the best in my humble opinion sorry anthem and audio control nad ect. Last but not least internal amplification if you want to run a ton of small speakers without using seperates but I'll be putting it in pre amp mode and using external amplification
@@nobaccos I can't tell if you're being serious or sarcastic. Sony's barely even worth considering these days when it comes to receivers/processors. The frontrunners in the industry left them in the dust years ago.
Why did you go with the Purifi instead of their NCOREx? I have an A1H and was about to pull the trigger an a buckeye Hypex NCOREx 3 channel but saw the purifi amp and got confused which one to get.
@@jmethane4810 Honestly, you won't notice a difference. I had an opportunity to buy the Purifi for the same price as the Hypex, so I went with that. You'd be just fine with the NCORE. Reach out to Dylan at Buckeye, he's very responsive and honest about what he thinks you should get based on your setup. He'll probably tell you to get the cheaper one.
Did you buy a house? My Nakamichi Dragon can't compete with your home theater 😢 . But I do have the Zidoo Z2000 Pro with and 180 Terabytes NAS. No need for Kscape 😮 I can challenge your JVC projector with my AWOL 3000 pro especially when it comes to 3D. The Denon receiver is next level. I can't go on..Have a good night
Niceeee, what is the benefit of usign diferent size subwoofers? I just got an klipsch rp 1400sw to replace an old onkyo 10 inc subwoofer, was wondering if theres something beneficial to running both.
I've Been Trying To Figure Out What And Which "POWER 🔋 AMPLIFIER/MONOLITH " To Go With My AVRX6700H Receiver, And I Guess You Just Answered That Shane!
If you are truly a Shane LEE fallower, you don't even need to watch till the end to know Shane hasn't even moved into his new house yet, let alone build the new theater. Peace out.

Awesome setup!! Looks like you haven't put up your projector screen yet and you were using a tv for now? Also what happened to your trinmov and kscape? Also with your low ceilings you might get a nice upgrade by going with 6 ceiling speakers/channels.
Hello! I am also in the market for the a1h, what are your thoughts on it? I will pair it with the monolith 7 x200 amp but I only have 15 amp - 120v circuits in my basement. Also running an lg Oled with 2 pb4000 subs. Do you think I need to upgrade to 20 amp or 240v? I am in US
@@therealshanelee thank you so much! I will! Accessories for less has refurbished units for 4500$ as far as I know they have the same denon 5 year warranty.
The A1H would be my ultimate receiver i reckon, i have the 6700H in preamp mode with two Tonewinner AD-7300PA+ amps running my 7.1.6 setup, i do have a speaker installed for VoG but i need to find a solution to allow me to hook that up for a preset two layout.
@@therealshanelee in Australia it is over ten grand for one of those, and i may almost have a minor issue fitting it into the spot occupied by the 6700!! With my old ears i'm not so sure it's going to be worth another $10,000+ ;)
Hi shane, Can I go for 1723 S Monitors for all my bed layers or go for B&W CT 7.3 for LCRS and remaining side Surround &Rear surrounds with 1723 S monitors.Which set up is more bass& Punch for movies..Please suggest me to go for it.
Shane is a GearOPhile, and he would never buy budget Monoprice amps, or a preamp /processor less than $15,000. Mismatched audio gear - questionable. That whole audio rack is pretty suspect. Definately someone else's audio gear choices.
8K is basically a gimmick. Human eyesight can't even gain benefits from 4K from a normal viewing position - ok, well, maybe once you surpass 120 inches and sit a little bit too close. 8K is pointless now and will be until we start installing cybernetic eyes. The JVC is a great projector otherwise, though, sure and worth it for other reasons.
Bought 2 monolith m215s will this have enough voltage to push them properly? My onkyo rz3100 doesn't cut it and i cant get them to cause me concern for my house as they should.
common !! Denon really ?almost 7000 thousand dollars for this flagship receiver and you still have to paid for Dirac Live ? even Pioneer Elite 505 Dirac Live Basic is free and already built in in the receiver
Great setup.Fabulous chairs.Would be nice if room were about 16 feet wide.Invite Batman and Darth Vader over for a demo.They are going to love those Perlistens
Once I laughed so hard when shane said trinnov is for someone who have some spare change in their pocket. I mean very few ppl earn that much amount of spare change monthly, atleast me😂
You kind of compared eversolo vs Hifi rose. Some audiophiles have hinted that eversolo won’t work in the future without much explanation except firmware eventually cannot be updated? Whereas Hifi rose will have no trouble? Please comment if you heard anything. Thanks
@therealshanelee love the new theater! Your channel actually inspired me to really get in to home theater, and I recently finished building out mine. Given the amount of money you basically made me spend (B&Ws all around, Denon A1H, Valencia seating, etc), I think you have to do mine in a future home theater hangout hahaha
Hi Shane. I have the X8500HA and would like to know how it compares to the A1H you just reviewed. I chose this receiver for its tech and all the legacy connections vs the A1H having only HDMI connections. I have every speaker possible connected. 7.1.6 for Dolby, Dts, Imax and Auro 3D. The Auro, I use center front and center height vs two front height, two ceiling height and two rear height for the other decoding. All my speakers are B&Ws and the sub is a JL audio F212. I love this setup that has took me years to put together. I enjoy watching you videos and keep up the good work!
So is all this your equipment then, just not your theater? What do you think of the R7ts vs the R5ts? You rate the Perlisten subs really well, but you don't have those in the theater? That size of theater is similar to the size my theater will be with 3 rows, etc. How do you feel the size & length vs sound is? And last, isn't using a receiver vs a processor, and "Monolith" brand amps is a little on the lower end of Hi-Fi? How does that set-up compare so higher end? Thanks Shane!
I always had to increase my LFE for my subs with Dirac, but I just upgraded to a processor with ARC Genesis, and the bass is just outstanding, plus 4 independent subwoofer calibration..but I only have 2 subs for now.

I thought Shane did us all dirty by not only moving into a new house but building a new home theatre behind our backs too! 😂
Nah, he was just being a tricky YT douche, lol
Your acting is so much better. I almost believed for a minute you would buy Monolith, lol.

What's that supposed to mean? Some new slang you kids came out with or what?
Not a bad looking room, but I knew from the beginning that it wasn't your home theater... Even before you showed the AV rack! Lol

Great walkthrough! Very informative and insightful. Nice video Shane!

Yeah I've never had auto eq get bass right either. You always got to go back and tweak.
I always lower all my subs level by 8db on their internal amp before I run calibration. Then I bring it back up when I’m done.
All I can say is Damn !
All kidding aside, when is the REAL home theater tour coming?
Good question 🤷♂️
Great tour Shane and fantastic room Reggie. I have a similar path coming from the NX7 to NZ8 and could not be happier with it.
Thanks! But who's Reggie? 🤷♂️😂

Well just finished the video😂😂😂 that’s not his house
It isn’t his house? Well that’s confusing. LOL.

I’m gonna assume you must be new to the channel. I review a/v gear.
