I love people like Matt
He’s a great guy
@@Youthman I met him at MWAVE, and I met you also. I'm one of DJs follower/friends
Love DJ!
He has been so successful because he enjoys the chase/journey more than the destination. People like Matt are the innovators because great is never good enough enough. Michael is the same way. One of Michael's greatest talents is being comfortable with being uncomfortable. Truly a pleasure to follow Michael and his life journey. It has been an incredible ride.
Thanks Tristan. I’m grateful for your friendship and continued encouragement and support over many years.
Exactly what I was thinking. He’s well off because he enjoys the chase. Wish I had more of that in me.
Ah the joy of changing / Upgrading stuff :D i miss it, every upgrade costs me so much now haha :D
yeah, that's the problem of already spending much and having decent system :) some people buy "jewelry" but I like to save up for some real upgrade :)
I have a Marantz 30 with dirac and love it....with 3 SVS PC4000 and Crowson transducer.....in an odd shaped room..... 7.3.6. Sounds awesome. Love seeing the process you guys did.
I don't know what you're using for WiFi so this may vary somewhat but on your WiFi settings play around with different channel options to see if it improves it. Additionally if it runs on multiple bands you can usually split them creating discrete connections for each. For example, 2.4GHz and 5GHz. Then try connecting devices specifically to 1 such as the 5GHz channel as the bass transceivers are likely running at 2.4GHz.
The Marantz Cinema 30 is an absolute beast. It's sounds great and looks like art work. Great video. Thanks.
Thank you kindly. I’m enjoying it as well. In my living room set up. It reminds me a lot of the SR8015 that I loved before I moved to separates in my Theater Room.
Michael, how does the cinema 30 compared to your Avm 70 in your theatre
It definitely is much easier to use. For example, today I was providing some demos in the theater room with the Anthem AVM 70. All I wanted to do was to have music in two channel with subwoofers. It took us probably 20 minutes to figure that out because we have to change the virtual input and we couldn’t get the speaker profile for 2ch to work
I noticed the marantz has a field for transducers , im loving it , Im ordering one right now
I have a Marantz 30 with dirac and love it....with 3 SVS PC4000 and Crowson transducer.
Here we go again! Woohoo!!! Lol... I watch Adam LZ's channel too! Thats cool that Matt's his friend!
Matt's GT3 is GORGEOUS!!! Arguably THE BEST street car on the planet!
I love the Cinema 30....if I had one I'd take the glass door off my media cabinet so the view of it wasn't obstructed!!
I don't ont know if it would work OR if Matt would want too but I've seen some speaker Spike/feet designs like those that are reversible. Flat part goes on the under side and the spikes hold them in from the top.
This was waaaaay more interesting than I thought it would be.
I really am glad you enjoyed the new format. Trying something different for a change in addition to my normal content. Just a couple of dudes hanging out, doing what we do, except we decide to turn on the camera while we do it.
Wow 2 of my favorite guys!!! I'm a detailer who enjoys obsessed garage! I think a lot of car guys are also audio fanatics. It's a certain group of people 😅
Thank you for the kind words, Joe. We definitely feel there’s a lot of overlap between the two obsessions.
Love watching the process!
Stay tuned for more crazy! Enjoyed this collaboration.
Thanks!
Really diggin' this format. Wish i was hanging out with you guys.
Thank you. Thats exactly the purpose of this format. Come hang out with us virtually.
Interesting. I can definitely change my channel levels after running Dirac Live with Bass Control on my HTP-1. Must be a NAD limitation. My HTP-1 even has a quick center channel dialog adjustment button right on the remote, which I believe allows for a quick +3dB to -3dB adjustment if memory serves.
I'm a lot like Matt, and I have a basement full of speakers, amps and receivers to prove it. You may already know this, but those plugs on the speaker terminals are so an electrical plug is not plugged into them. I read somewhere that the UK plug has the same distance between the posts. I have never tested that, but that was what I had read.
Oh seriously? I honestly didn’t know that. I never knew why in the world they put those on there to begin with.
Interesting.
have a hard job plugging a uk 3 pin plug into them the pins are square and twice the size, lol. I think you're talking about the 2 pin round European plugs not the UK versions. Europlugs are non-earthed plugs that have have two round pins with a diameter of 4.0 mm, positioned ca. 19 mm apart.
@@meridiusuk8567 you are correct then. I couldn’t remember what country(s) it was.
Awesome! Take a photo of all the settings Audyssey made before playing with any. Distance, tone, etc.
Audyssey was disabled. It’s best to have that disabled at the beginning, make your physical changes to your speaker, layout and position, then run your calibration, then if you want to make changes, yes of course take a photo so that you can always change them back if you make changes that are worse than what they were before
Current center channel sound issues could be related to early reflections off the top of the wood media console.
Should do like me, don't use a center, sounds better :)
@artfartzy I've never tried my 5.2 setup without the center channel. People with much more experience than me recommend using a good center channel so that's what I do. But happy that you get good results. Room acoustics, speaker placement, and decent speakers are likely more important factors to quality sound than a center channel. And perhaps a center channel is more important for large screens/rooms, ones with wider L&R speaker placement.
@@tylerpanteleeff8581 Exactly it is meant for larger screening rooms and cinemas or places where everyone can't sit in the center sweetspot. My amplifier has something build in called virtual center, it is better than the traditional phantom mode you get when you set your decoder setup as a 4.1 without a center. My decoder is in my oppo bluray player, then in the setup I have it setup as if I had a center, so from the center output there is a cable to my amplifier. Once it reached my amplifier the center audio is send out to the L/R front speakers but in a better way than the decoder would have done if I had turned off the center in the speaker configuration. To me it sound more natural and the vocies are coming from right where my TV is without sounding like it's coming from a box like it often does with a center placed under the TV. You just have to make sure the front speakers are placed with same distance between them as there is to the listening position. So that the vocals from the singer is right in the middle between the speakers when you listen to music. And then of course you have to sit in the middle sweetspot or as close to. I feel it sounds more natural as if they were standing in my room speaking. Of course you need an amplifier that has this virtual center function for it to sound the best. But even with just phantom mode you might find that it sound better than with a center, but this is something you can test. Of course if you are a group of people watching then you might need the center, what I have is more for 1-2 persons watching, im mostly watching alone so it's not a problem.
@@artfartzy No center only works well for a single center seating position as soon as you move left or right the phantom center image falls apart . A dedicated channel is a a lot better if you have more that one seating position in the room.
@@micb3rd Yes it works best if you sit in the middle, but it also depends how well your front speakers are setup and how good they are at spreading the sound, in my setup it works fine with 2 people watching, the vocals still sounds like they come from where the TV is. And it sounds more natural than with a center placed under the TV. So for people watching alone it's worth trying without a center.
Matt made a lot of good choices. I love Marantz and that Cinema 30 looks like a great choice. I also like the black speakers, never was a fan of while. Super clean looking front end. 👍
FYI the older Marantz AVR's gave you a lot of control over the center channel. Since I'm a big fan of quality center speakers I found I could really dial it in to my personal preferences using the Marantz.
@@voiceofreason9238 buy a JBL SDR38. I did. Best center channel performance ever. Owned Marantz sr8015 before (And Nad t778) Bit of a joke compared to the jbl synthesis line. Okay not really a joke but the jbl delivers so much more of a real cinema experience. My center speaker is the Revel c426be
Christmas come early this year 😜👍
Hey Mike, with the wireless sub wifi conflict issue, have him check what "channel" the svs wireless device is using on the wifi router. He most likely is in the 2.4GHZ range. The wifi device channel can be changed and that should help with the conflict.
I checked the description but couldn’t find it. What entertainment stand does he have? Is it the one that digital trends has? I can’t remember the name but the company has a model that’s lower to the ground like the on on this video. It’s just that it’s 3K and if this is a different one it might be cheaper and I’d like to grab it. Thanks
Love,Love,Love these videos. I'm definitely living vicariously through Matt's journeys. I'll never be rich or even well to do but I can experience a taste of the Good life by watching Matt's videos. I hate how these companies are nickel and diming their softwares. I have the AVM70 and so far their ARC software is completely free. I have read that maybe in the future we may have to pay for a higher tier software!🤦🏿♂️ Car manufacturers are also following the same "pay to use" plan. What can you do?🤷🏿♂️ The Old Man!👨🏾🦲 Julius!🙋🏿♂️
Thanks for watching!
I think with the dimensions of his room and wall height, he could install a Just Video Wall, for his display.
Need a bigger center channel. Especially in the living room where u mostly listen to dialog. Its worth it and you have the space for it.
He spoke about CENTER Channel audio, time for you guys to try A1 EVO before you buy MultiQ X. It will bring those 4 subs together and better center channel audio.
@@HomeTheaterCommish absolutely! With the Audyssey mic he could run Nexus too. He’d have a fantastic sounding system and save $600 !
This!!! A1 Evo changed my whole setup for the better
A 9.5" woofer has 1/4 the area of an 18" woofer.
The dual 9.5" configuration is designed to eliminate cabinet resonance. It's a push-pull arrangement.
Having 4 of these should still give you peaks exceeding 115dB plus all the advantages of multiples for evening our bass response.
I have a 12x13 room which will have 4 Starke SW15 on a 2x4 miniDSP. Less than 2500 all in for that. In room 12 Hz at 88 dB.
Dyn EQ is great for a living room setup IMO. Like others have mentioned, look into the OCA A1 EVO script. It takes Audyessy calibration to another level in conjunction with REW.
Sorry not an 18inch woofer in theory. No replacement for displacement. An 18in woofer will move more air due to surface area. :) Great setup though.
Yeah, I was scratching my head when he said that. The cone surface area of dual 9 inch subwoofers is more like a single 12-13 in subwoofer
@@LeeLee-fi7mx2x9“ Circles equals one 12,75“ circle but it also depends in exactly how big the subwoofers are .
And most bigger subs have more xmax for example a Dayton Ultimax ii 8“ has 18mm of one way xmax while the 18“ version has 28mm so you would need about 9,2 8“ subs to equal one 18“
The math wasn’t mathing 😀
@@Youthman not even a little bit
That's interesting what Matt's experiencing with WiFi. I have the tri band as well and don't have any issues. But I put as many devices as possible on my 6 ghz network band and have my AVR and Apple TV connected via ethernet. Maybe he should try something like that if he hasnt already to limit any wireless interference
Hey Michael😊
👍
What is he using for his Video Display?
Believe Lg C3
Wouldn’t it make sense to tinker with the MultEQ app or MultEQ pro software? And do an apples to apples comparison with Dirac?
I felt like it allowed me to tweak the sound signature immensely to suit my preference.
Possibly, but you’re talking $600 for Dirac Live with Bass Control, then another $200 for multi EQ X. $800 for curiosity?
@@Youthmanyeah that’s maybe too much… then again, Matt does like to experiment with these types of things.
Based on my experience I would definitely recommend the 20$ iPhone app for some basic tweaking experience as you can kinda tweak the sound signature (adjust curves and so on).
I say this because I find Audissey to be a bit thin sounding out of the box
@@bellini1992 Audyssey has a well renounded reputation of killing the bass. For some reason it calibrates the bass to 75db. After running Audyssey you simply up the bass 3-6db. Maybe even more, and you´re good to go.
Is he able to adjust his wifi band so that it uses a different channel? there are some free apps to adjust that but may be worth a call with his internet service provider.
Who makes the cabinets under the TV ? Did he say VTI or BDI I can’t understand what he calls it. Very nice looking cabinet.
Love these new videos
At 13:07 he says dual 9s would be “in theory an 18 inch subwoofer”.
Wouldn’t it actually be the equivalent to a 13 inch subwoofer?
Yes and you also need to consider that most small subwoofers have less xmax than there bigger counterparts for example a Dayton Ultimax ii 8“ has 18mm of one way xmax while the 18“ version has 28mm and so you would need about 9,2 8“ subwoofers to have the same displacement as one 18“
Love the journey
He's got a Nice setup
I have the svs pinnacles with pb 2000 subwoofer, a Marantz cinema 70s and a emotiva xpa 3 channel external amplifier
Good enough for me.
I hope he enjoys his speakers
Possible excess residence noise with the subwoofers too close to the tower speakers
good day you showed us how to setup kalidascape in the last video.
does kalidascape work world wide?
iam planning to make a home theater in zimbabwe when i find a place to build my house.
also is there a 4k disk vault from kalidascape.
I enjoy most approaches. There are always tidbits or things that didn't work and other killer bits.
Now, not everybody has the funds to do what you guys do but I am not jealous or bothered by it.
I have a small room and I found my PB2000Pro was a bit boomy. I decided to add a pair of Starke SW15. Way better for the room. Still in the process of installing a MiniDSP because my Marantz 6014 has a dead Sub 2 output. Always a pivot to be made but the tight bass was worth the moderate cost
Ok yea it’s the BDI stand that’s the one digital trends has. I see he mentions it in the video thanks.
I'm surprised that in such a nice setup using very nice equipment that he would use wireless transmitters for the Subwoofers. Not only can they interfere with other wireless signals, but they also add latency, which could cause audio and video synchronization issues as well as phase and problems with integrating with the mains.
The difficulty with hardwood floor is, how do you get the cable to the subwoofers? At some point you have to cross the path and people are going to be walking on it even if you were to place a rug over it that’s not good for the signal at all.
Matt shared in a previous video this room will mostly be used to watch sports. He will have a dedicated Theater Room upstairs. That will be a much higher end system for movie watching.
I use the rel s812 subwoofer with wireless Rel transmitter. It’s delay is 18 ms. This equals 530 cm adding to the subwoofer distance from listening position. But actually Dirac Bass Control will fix everything: delay and phase. It works perfectly.
@Fransost7367 With the room correction software adding delays to the audio to account for the subwoofers, does the AV reciever/processor also adjust the synchronization of the video? I'm super sensitive to that, especially when tactile transducers like buttkickers seem to react slower than what's happening on screen.
Thanks for the video!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
At least you can still hook up a Laser Disc Player to a Marantz model 30 using it's Composite Inputs
I have full range dirac on my lx-505, surely an avr that costs 5x as much would have at least the base version of dirac.
Wealth allows a person to be eccentric with a blank check. It would be interesting to see Matt live in the real world. What he is able to do is entertaining and interesting , but a slap in the face of the everyday man. There's no doubt he's worked hard, but going from HT & A/V sales to financial advisor in your 20's and acquiring (dropped in your lap) the majority of his wealth management clients from his retiring mentor in his early 30's isn’t something that happens to most financial advisors.
How is one person, success, a slap in the face to the everyday man. I’m the everyday man and I’m inspired by what he is accomplished in the past nine years through Obsessed Garage.
I look at other people’s success and want to learn how they did it.
I’m curious how the sub 6 compares to the core sub compact
They are very similar.
why u replace the nad t778 with marantz cinema 30?
The 778 didn’t have (4) sub outs. It also didn’t sound as good as the Cinema 30.
@ ok thats interesting, i replaced my sr7013 and it was as if had someone breathed life into my speakers (kef r7) even without calibration the sound was so much better.. so i can‘t imagine the cinema 30 can sound better as the nad
Hi guys, Matt would you use Marantz in the garage ?
Love the new collab format. Question, would that center channel work well with a UST projector? Or is it still too deep/ high. Thanks.
Glad you’re enjoying the new format. Yes an ultra short throat projector would fit fine on the cabinet.
@Youthman, love the video! I'm looking for a replacement AVR and can't decide between the Marantz Cinema 30 or the Denon AVC-A1H, or maybe an Anthem? So many choices, difficult to know what's best!
Marantz and Denon are rock solid.
My Anthem AVM70 is fantastic, but the app does crash a LOT and I occasionally have to reboot it to sync HDMI. It definitely has a ton of flexibility for calibration if you like to do that.
If you want easy to setup and calibrate, Denon or Marantz is the way to go.
@@Youthman Awesome, thanks for getting back to me! I think the Marantz looks nicer, but the Denon has more power. So difficult to make these decisions!
Keep in mind you will never hear the difference between 140 watt amplifier and a 150 watt. The reason is it takes twice the power to gain 3 dB in volume. So you would need to have an amplifier that is 280 W to hear 3dB difference between the two
@@Youthman That's a great point and helps make up my mind. Thanks again, see you on the next video! 👍
@@Youthman just to let you know, I took your advise and went with the Marantz Cinema 30. Its just arrived! Thanks
To fix the problem with the SVS transmitter and receiver, you need to figure out what channels it transmits on, then go back to his Wi-Fi router and change the channel as far from the SVS transmitter as you can
What is the brand and model for that component rack/tv stand? Looks nice.
its a center channel reflector , part of a pair with the humungous coffee table
Are we talking about the same thing? I think he said BDI stand. The TV stand/ entertainment center for his receiver and components.
Yes BDI cabinet
When you say 'pre-amp', is that just a DAC or something else?
I’m not sure what part of the video you’re referring to. The unit has pre-out which allow you to add an external amplifier. I may have said preamp by mistake.
I'm still buying second hand.
My centre channel speaker are similar size to my towers just horizontal under the G3
How does this set up compare to the Denon AVR 5805😊
That thing was a beast so awesome
Kind of odd not to enable wave-forming(dynamic) with the 4 subs...no?
Marantz doesn’t do wave forming. That’s completely different than directional bass.
Here's a thought! (That's dangerous) Maybe someone's had it. There's a powerpoint under the couch, plug a wifi extender into it. Being right next to the rear subs, it might stop the wifi problems. Then again, isn't the receiver sending the signal to the subs? Plug it into the receiver powerpoint. Strange!
Loved The video
Thanks, Clifford!
Hey Matt, great that you love the room, all that matters. Listening to you and Michael talk, i do think the biggest improvement for your room would be to remove the excessive room reverberance. Get the room right and you will be in hog heaven.😃
Man he should have grabbed the JBL HDI series for such a big living room would have paired well with he Marantz. I just ordered the 3600s at 52% off!
The Journey
Also ... some of the best in Canadian Speakers =)
GAH!! .. I hate those inserts ... 26:08.. What a waste of plastic.. like..why?!.. Why bother even having them?
Someone shared in the comment section the reason they do that is because in some countries, they have a power cable that is the same shape so they didn’t want people sticking power into the speaker and destroying it
@@Youthman .... Ahhh... So ... similar reason why they write " Hot " ..on the side of coffee cups...
😅😇
Good looking on wall speakers. Happy to take those off his hands since he doesn't want them.
I believe he sold those shortly after the first video where he said he was going to be upgrading
In this video - ruclips.net/video/X-GbwrZtNLk/видео.htmlsi=FnVOPrdYGPprRy7z
@@Youthman Oh well, worth a shot. The wife hates my towers and think she would go for the on-walls. May have to look into those.
Hey I agree with the guy--I have GAS in fountain pens, hifi, and photography stuff. The process of acquiring and admiring the gear is just as important, and at time more enjoyable, than the end use. edit---but he gets money back when he changes gear, I tend to give mine away or store it in a closet like it's a shuttered museum..lol.
Sounds like there is some echo in that room, think there isn't enough absorbing materials in the room.
Of course there’s echo in the room. It’s a living room. 😀
The.dedicated home theater upstairs will be acoustically treated. As he shared in the video, he mostly will use it while multitasking, mostly watching sports.
He has art on the walls so perhaps acoustic art panels would meet that need.
my wife wants to know the model of the tv cabinet ... greats from Belgium
BDI FURNITURE, USA based company. I don’t think you can buy it in België of Nederland. I tried but did not succeed. I designed a similar cabinet myself and had it built by Reference Sounds in Almere
@@Fransost7367 dank u , thank you
Change the access points / wireless to a different channel. Not the svs stuff. if you change it from it's default, it will probably be much better for the internet.
👍
Now is worst part patching and painting wall 🤫
Notice he said he will get Mike to do it 😀
I like Anthem amps with ark in the price , spending 4,500 on amp it should have the best eq but the video was entertaining.
Considering the arcam AVR 21 has been released for quite a while, one can purchase the Arcam avr20 for less than £2,000. The high-performance unit has a huge toroidal transformer, a toroid amplifier, a similar ESS SABRE sabre DAC as to the cinema 30 and as far as sound quality goes, it sounds just as good or, if not better than cinema 30
oh, and BTW, it also comes with Dirac (full bandwidth) at no extra charge. Providing one is not a gamer and is running less than 7 channels IMO it's a no-brainer
Why no get 4 SVS SB17, they are cheaper, if you buy 4.
Matt isn’t concerned with cost. He will have (4) JTR 18’s in his dedicated theater room. Family room needed to be more discreet.
Those are way too big to put in a family room.
@@ObsessedGarageI have MUCH bigger subs than those SVS SB17’s in my family room.🤷♂️🤔😬
Each to his own but i dont get it, i like the journey but boy fo i like watching and enjoying my setup. Then again i see people upgrade every two seconds.
Hope he remembers to run in the speakers and subs first.
Matt believes in burn in. Not hundreds of hours, but, some level of burn in. I personally believe burn in is a few minutes at most. You’re not going to hear a difference if you run a speaker or subwoofer for 10 hours or 20 hours or 200 hours.
Burn in for 2,000 hours, then upgrade.
Your wifi channels seem to be the same as the sub transmitters. Easy fix, just changed the channel frequencies of you wifi mate.
Amen to that ADHD bud!! It’s a blessing and a curse for us 💪🏻😂
Youthman has seen so many systems in his time on youtube, especially after the kansas city tour I dont think anything excites him anymore.
Incorrect. I got excited just yesterday when I demoed my JTR system for my friends. They had never experienced Dolby Atmos in a home. It was incredible.
@@Youthman i noticed something the other day i went to an electronics store and i couldn't get excited about anything cause im on a different level these days
Price doesn’t excite me, great quality products do.
@@Youthman i agree but those days re few and far between .
Hi Matt the ubiquiti u7 pro max has a dedicated WiFi chip for checking channel congestion and interference it has 2.4ghz 5ghz and 6ghz I would recommend this access point or the ubiquiti u6 enterprise access points are amazing the 7 pro max is new so still waiting for some features to be released with software updates some people have had issues with iot devices connecting with the u7 pro max but still worth trying I have experienced a similar issue years ago with an android box killing my internet connection turns out it was the cheap Chinese power adapter as soon as I plugged in the power adapter even when it was not connected with WiFi or anything it would drop my internet speed down to nothing unplugged the power adapter the internet connection would go back to normal so I purchased same voltage power adapter from a different manufacturer and it fixed the issue took me ages to figure out it was the power supply hope this helps just thought I would share. love the cinema 30 I am definitely going to get one to replace my Denon can’t wait to see videos when you get your ubiquiti equipment great stuff I have used them for many years
I love PSB, and the Marantz 30 is phenomenal! 140wpc
If you only wanted feet you reverse the install so spikes face up.
Matt is rubbing me wrong
I love that he doesn’t care what people think of him. He’s just being himself.
@@Youthman just hope he doesnt tarnish your reputation
I’ve been friends with Matt for 4 years. He’s a great guy. He isn’t willing to be anyone but himself. Take it or leave it guy.
This guy is so exhausting to me. And I am a very patient and understanding person. Kudos to Youthman but I would’ve walked out on like 3 occasions lol. “I like the chase but I don’t have time to watch movies.” Sometimes a person needs a good slap. Maybe even more. Even the Rogue shirt is douchey. And I owned a CrossFit gym for 13 years.
If you follow Matt’s channel, you’ll know that he has legit obsessive compulsive disorder. It’s not something he asked for, but it’s something that he deals with daily. So instead of allowing it to cripple his life, he turned it into a successful business.

This dude seems like the epitome of restlessness...
As Matt always says, “join me for more crazy”. Matt shares on his channel he suffers from obsessive compulsive disorder. Before I met Matt, I thought OCD was just making sure things are in a straight line and in order. It goes much deeper than that.
Most often in life, we don’t get to choose the cards we are dealt. Matt chose to use what some would see as a curse, and turn it into a blessing through Obsessed Garage.
Hard wire everything that does not move!
Easier said than done, especially when you have hard floors
@@Youthman Electrical made it to the sofa, use the same conduit for the subs, might have to use optical cables though…. Easier to hard wire the AppleTV
@capwkidd correct electrical made it to the sofa when the house was built
Pretty sure two 9s would be between 12 and 15 (I don't feel like doing the math, lol). Definitely not an 18
in 2 weeks changing everything again lol
Should of went 2 channel 😮
@CarlVanDoren61 no way.
you talk for all that time. I woiuld rather listen to my die of slow death...
Nice to be Rich So you can Make these stupid mistakes. Try doing an average sitting room
👍 👍
$4700!
You dont need all that EQ crap just get used to the sound of the room!
Most things we don't need. At least the guy will not out live his money 😅
We need food, clothing and shelter. Truthfully nothing in Home Theater is a need. But Home Theater has never been about needs.
Does this person care more for looks vs the home theater experience as a whole?
Not running wires to subs is a sin. Smaller speaker sizes is also a sin
Put the center on top of the cabinet and bring it forwad.
You even mentioned this in a previous video!
I hate Audesy love Dirac .
Why?
@@Youthman I like the way Dirac lets me set some things manually where I want the sound and Audessey seems to do it for you . Dirac also fits me like a glove its interface seems to be more natural to me if I’m saying right
Have you used Audyssey Multi EQ X?
@@Youthman never heard of it . I tried a unit with what I believe was just Audessey a year and a half ago I think a Dennon , but when the Onkyo Rz 70 came out I bought that . Loved the 70 so much in my family room with my Focal surround and REL subs I bought a RZ 50 for my bedroom . But no never heard of that expanded name on Audessey
@@Youthman it might have been 2 years ago ago my memory isn’t what it used to be
