If you had the same speakers as your front mains as surrounds, won't the lower cones be quite obscured by the arms of the seats anyway? So from that pov maybe you got the correct speakers as surrounds. Also I am no pro but maybe the surrounds backs should be raised slightly? Only asking what you think. Btw I loved alien romulant. It was surprisingly good.. but I agree they always asked crazy prices for this stuff. But it's getting worse tbh.

Nice set up man Have you tried your laserdisc player on any of your set ups

The 9000 has HDR optimizer some the magnetar does'nt have.THX certified as well.

Did I see a Sony receiver? Are you planning to review it?

My view is that your equipment just over power's the TV

What subwoofer are those?

Feeling that area with insulation makes a huge difference. It also will reduce comb filtering from the sound that bounces back from the screen.

Chris, nice Rig!

I have always used full range sides and rears! 4:11

Nice set up.. How wide is the area where your fronts are located..

Those prices remind me of the laserdisc days!!! 2nd theater looks good.

Your ceiling speakers set to middle and rears?

Alien Romulus was bad a**

Ya gotta hook that ps5 up to that awesome setup and test the tv and atmos! Please.

I think some 2d diffusers up front and 3d diffusers in the back all between the absorption panels would be a good addition. Helps the room sound bigger and cuts down on some of the noise too.

Those chairs are gonna be like you’re floating on a cloud of boobies. I think your room is the same size as mine so if you want to sell the carpet llet me know.

Hey Chris! Anyone can do what they can, please continue to do what u want! I njoy ur. Videos! 20:37

You have to be yourself in this world. It’s your constitutional right to free speech. I follow many people I don’t agree on everything. People are to soft now days. Just keep doing your thing man.

How do you like the SI 24"... I just got a set but I haven't had time to dial them in

Looks great !

Do you really support Donald Trump, RFK jr and others or "just" the party? I'm from Germany so no direct impact of the election on my side. Would be interesting to hear your standpoint of all this. (Sorry, you are the only "normal" person who I can think of to ask this.)

What's those black velvet on the floor

You should do BEQ with those subs.

Great job Chris!

Absolutely superb idea. Great job my friend 👏👏

It is remarkable review & magnificent RACK System you have Mr. Chris. i am wondering what's happen if you watch movie has Auro-3D ( How AVM90 deal with it ?) because as you know the AVM90 doesn't support Auro-3D Audio file. Because, I am planning to buy AVM90 but I am confused and afraid because he doesn't support Auro-3D Audio file. Thanks in advance for your kind response in regard.

Definitely recommend bass traps. They made a huge difference in my room. Especially after switching to the big 18's and 24's. Along with all the good came room rattles and reverberations which I cant stand. And even with it EQ'd at my seats the peaks in other areas of the room could be heard. So they made a huge difference in that regard. When you rip out that back wall you can put the new one up like a foot off the back, and put nice sized traps behind them. They don't have to be pretty since you won't see them. Probably behind the screen too. I did some 4" treatment on the ceiling also but not sure those really did anything.

My noise floor was at 36.4

Nice system so far, but my OCD is kicking in. You need to get the carpet cleaned please 🤣🤣🤣

A suggestion why not have your calibrator check in room Revelation Time using REW and then make the correct educated decisions before adjusting the acoustic treatment. You may see in the measurements that you need thicker/multi stacked panels to treat the correct areas or maybe not do anything at all.

The updates to your theater are looking really good! Big improvements!

Did I miss something I don’t see a political comment unless you removed it. As this comment is posting on 11-8 there’s definitely a relief in the air. We sat through this catastrophe for the last four years or almost four so should the other side now. And pray that attempts on the MAN are foiled. 😳😏

That’s how I had to do my screen there was nothing else I could do. And even though I don’t have any subs behind the screen…. Scratch that those subs are intense I’m sure.

Totally different room I don’t think anything is the same. Sorry I haven’t been in touch. Really looks good man. I still need to get up there.

Great work Chris! 0:15

My twisters steel book was delayed also. I ended up canceling and picking up in person. I’m hoping Godzilla Minus one isn’t delayed!

Your noise floor is about where mine is.

I go with Amazon, but, I don’t need the steel book. I only care about the disc, not what the disc is in!

Man Chris I love ya man.. But I don't think you will ever finish that room brother. Haha.

What did you have the SPL meter set at for the noise floor?

Looking good! What said something happened when you turned up the bass, but wasn’t specific? Did the system shut down? 🎉 Also, with your high ceilings, I wonder if maybe double stacking the tonnen 2” panels would help. Second, I think you may benefit from adding Diffusion panels in between the acoustic panels? Might help acoustics a lot! As of now there are only sound deadeners.. 🎉 just a thought! Ps. More subwoofer vids! 🎉

I have to try that noise floor. It’s really quiet in my basement HT. I wanna see just how quiet.

Those subs look amazing man! Love the theater 👍 I gotta say though….those Polk speakers gotta go. Any plans to get new speakers? If so, what are you looking at?

love Monolith 7 its crisp sound excells amps double the price God Bless

Are you finding an extreme benefit with the angles in ceiling? I just purchased some regular in ceiling and have not installed, wondering if Atmos should be directional or diffused like the dipole surrounds. Yes you lose directionality but what percent are better? Don’t let any marketing change your choice of speakers. The tech hasn’t changed much and the details in the install choices are more important than speaker brand.

Mistake to make it political. You just polarized a percentage of your audience and i'M sure sponsors are listening...I'm out!!!

Your political views just made me like this channel even more than I already have 👍🙌

Noise floor help! Even though I'm an avid 2 channel stereo music lover, I also love the occasional movie, too, and due to lack of space, I have to optimise my setup for multi-channel listening also. However, when it came listening to my newly discovered multi-channel setup (4 years ago), I immediately became aware of how the room sounded different. Didn't know what it was at first, but coming from an audio black background, there was no way I was prepared to put up with it! Even after auditioning 3 separate AVR's, the same electrical ambient sound of the room was still present! That told me the extremely faint background signal noise I had been experiencing (poor description) had nothing to do with the actual units. Therefore, my attention changed to the cables. And even then It was only on the third occasion after I finally ended up purchasing shielded cables that the noise floor within my small room finally came down to satisfactory levels. Cables often act as antennas for attracting RF, and the longer the cable, the better the antenna. Probably explains why when I used to disconnect my heights and surrounds within 10 minutes, the faint background signal noise (RF/EMI) within my small room used to almost practically disappear/dissipate The more cables I shield, the quieter my room becomes, and the better the shielding, the more the cables are likely to disappear. In fact, the last group of cables I changed were from my HDMI's and lo and behold the room became slightly quieter yet again. If one has the same sensitivities and is looking to address this matter, but is also hoping to notice (hear) the incremental differences, I would suggest starting with analogue cables before moving on to digital and power cables (no good getting rid of the quietest when one hasn't addressed the noisiest) Trying to achieve a totally silent room sadly has turned into obsession for me. However, the results speak for themselves. There are times when pressing pause (or mute), I'm unable to differentiate whether the systems off or whether the systems actually switched on. Of course, audiophile equipment helps, but in reality when it comes to a multi-channel setup and when we're sitting in the MLP it's actually the interference coming off the cables that's actually going to be adding to the noise floor, especially with Atmos channels with their extended cable lengths. Please don't think I'm referring to cross cable contamination, say, with like power cables, for example. Put it to the test. Watch a movie for at least 10 minutes, then press pause and sit and listen. Now you're aware just how loud the noise floor actually is... turn the system off and disconnect the height and surround channels and repeat the process. Then you should hear just how much the noise floor has come down, but remember it can take up the 5-10 minutes for the interference to build up and to dissipate so when testing, give it 10 minutes. If you're impressed with the results, I'd be more than happy to recommend the necessary cables, and they don't necessarily have to be expensive either.

Coming along

Good movie in the background 😂😂
