@@dvspot yep, the old ones are a bit more powerful as they had to reduce them just a bit and make the cabinet larger to nearly eliminate port chuffing. The new ones are cleaner, but they’re all good subwoofers. We always recommend that you don’t go above about 45 or 50% on the older woofers because the amplifiers are known to go out when pushed too hard

@@peakoil-ko5oq What units did you have in mind?

@@percybedford6266 the Epson is brighter. Resolution, and of course tone mapping gives the JVC the slight advantage. Overall built quality I would give to Epson. Geometric correction if you’re doing a curved screen goes to Epson. Both phenomenal units, please subscribe as we will be doing some more videos on both of these units soon. if you’d like to purchase from us, we always appreciate the support of our family business. We’re also happy to offer phone support on all of the products that we sell. Take care, my friend.

@@DivineAV yes I am already subbed to your channel, love your content. I bought the LS12000 last year and the side by side you did with the 5000es was a big factor in helping me to decide on the LS12000. Just wondering if it would be an upgrade and yes I will contact you if I decide to upgrade.

@@percybedford6266 oh that’s my bad my friend, I’ve seen your comments in the past. I really appreciate your support of our channel and business. It’s definitely a step up as far as clarity goes and the tone mapping is pretty nice but I think you have a pretty solid projector right there. If you’re talking about the higher end models, that’s a different conversation.

@@DivineAV you're good. I was specifically referring to the NZ500. I think I may hold off for now and wait for your reviews on the NZ500. Thanks again and looking forward to your reviews.

@@percybedford6266 yeah, we will do some more testing and get it out to you guys ASAP. we have some cool surprises coming for the channel and a lot more content

@@Kiwi-ot3wz thank you so much for watching. Yes the Epson was updated and it is now significantly sharper. There’s benefits to both projectors. The Epson has overall a bit higher built quality and it has advanced geometric correction for curved screens and other situations. Is about equal and both projectors are current lineup. Prices the same and Dealer margin is nearly identical so there shouldn’t be any dealer pushing one unit over the other. We sell both projectors. Put them side-by-side, the Sony is slightly sharper, but color accuracy might be a bit better on the Epson. You’ll be satisfied with either Projector when it’s in your house and not being directly compared to another Projector. We do need to do an updated video for sure. If you’re in the DFW area and the best demonstrations, give us a call. if not, work with your local dealer and he, or she should be able to point out the exact pros and cons of each unit. We greatly appreciate you watching and subscribe for more :-)

@@ipcress20 thank you so much!!!

@@michaeldee3380 yeah we asked him about that. He said that they can make this in a matte finish if the market demands it. But you get a higher perceived contrast with the blacks using the gloss

@@DivineAV Yes, most people will probably opt for the reflective glass panel as it provides better perceived contrast but most importantly also sharpness. I have never seen a MicroLED in person but these all appear to be in a matte finish. Prices for certain models like the Lunar Walls I think they're called are starting to fall. I give it another five or ten years tops before this technology becomes mainstream. The 115 inch TCL looks very appealing but its sheer size/bulk and weight make it a difficult sell for most people.

@@MatrixfanMacUser the 9 was quite good in person. Bit pricy though. Ink black in person. Thanks for watching!

@@ace12kyTheInvincibles they are a bit steep but we usually package projectors in this range with an entire system and the budget works out

@@televes99 3d will probably make a comeback when 8k native projectors become a thing. The resolution of 3d is just too low for some people

@@DivineAV Shoot, not for me! Enjoyed Pacific Rim 3D today on my Epson 5050😁

@@tommygunzz7586 yeah, 3-D is still fun!

3D isn’t even a niche market for home theater projectors.

Yup. 3D is easily better than 4K HDR.

@paulzenco6182 there is a bunch of music played on the actual speakers in the video. Are you referring to music tracks protected by copyright? That's not allowed on full length videos. They get away with it on KZbin shorts. Long after this video was published they did start allowing KZbin full length videos with copy written music but the proceeds all have to go to the original artist and companies

@@sridhartn83 correct, you need a much more powerful AVR to play at loud levels like that without distortion. Or much higher sensitivity speakers.

@@antoniocolonjr.9642 A minimum of about 70 W RMS. Of course 200 or 300 would give you tons of headroom and therefore utilize the cleanest portion of the power.

@@JayPatrol just leave the jumpers on and then run the positive and negative to the lower terminal

@@DivineAV thanks

@@JeffD-bl4rr probably wasn’t configured properly. The Sony is native 4K. The Epson is a shifting Projector. The Epson has a better feature set and professional geometric correction. Build quality definitely goes to Epson, but overall clarity is Sony all day long. Colors, is a tossup but maybe a slight edge on Epson. Really depends on the individual person. We have both on display and we often sell both.

@@usaidulu nice, Trinnov?

@@Mortagleus depends on the build, but most likely exactly the same. In the United States the majority of walls are going to be 2 x 4 or 2 x 6. From inside out: sheet rock, insulation in stud cavity, Osb sheathing, vapor barrier, exterior finishing solution. There wouldn’t be a vapor barrier on the sheetrock side because then it would lock in moisture between the studs. If you’re talking about mass loaded vinyl or something like that, you would need to use a back box with mass loaded vinyl, completing the circuit. Let me know if that answers your question. Thanks buddy.

I’m realizing, perhaps you’re talking about putting an in wall speaker to play into an exterior space like a patio. If that’s the case, cut the hole out first using a jigsaw, Get a specific back box for the speaker that you’re trying to use, cover the entire backside of the box with something like Dynamat, Put Weather strip around the inside of the speaker lip prior to installation, install the speaker securely. If it’s an in ceiling speaker, like on a patio, if you have access above, use an insulating dome and poly seal that against the ceiling material. Then install your ceiling speaker.

@@silvanadair4888 wise words, indeed

Thank you so much! That's very nice of you. We actually just did a ton of changes to it. it now has a Trinnov altitude 16 with waveforming, 10 18” subs, black columns with LEDs, acoustic clouds overhead, MadVR, and Kaleidescape. We will do an update soon. Definitely would consider 4DX

@@DivineAV oh man Cant wait to see it ! 🙌🏾

Yes, a bit. But they also enhanced clarity in a software update. Pretty good now
