What a cool room, great gear, and awesome guy. Could sense the Holy Spirit in him. Great Youthman video too! Would you suggest planning out dedicated electric circuits for the rack, projector, chairs, lights,etc?

[@Kickinitwithd18]

I did two dedicated 20amp circuits: my JTR Subs-->Surge X (Power Surge protector) which has two outlets on it ---> 20 amp outlet. The second: two amplifiers-->Surge X (Power Surge Protector) which has two outlets--> 20 amp outlet. All other equipment in rack, chairs and lights are using standard outlets or circuits.

But great job again on your theater man. You got the Trinnov so you’re already at end game status and I aspire to get one one day as well. 😁

[@techsamurai11]

Loved to see the rack components - I'd never heard of D-Zone but I'd heard of Tonewinner. Smart choice to use that for the Atmos and the better power for your mains and perhaps surrounds. We've been seeing so many amps now offering asymmetric power rating for speakers with higher power output reserved for the LCR. AVRs sort of do that where you see some delivering 200watts in 2 channel, then dropping to 100 watts for 7 but they don't reserve power thereby allowing an Atmos overhead speaker to get the same power as your front or center channel which makes no sense. You could probably power the Atmos speaker with a few 9 volt batteries yet your $4,000 AVR is treating it like it's a Klipsch LaScala.😁 I'd love to see AVRs with Class D start allowing asymmetric power distribution where they set the LCR to have 200 watts apiece and the other channels share 400 watts. Not all speakers are created equal.

You could always run the power brick cord through the riser and up to the top if you want to tidy that up or the cord becomes a issue . Sweet set up

It was really nice to hear what all he has acquired and described on how he got to where he is now.

Hello guys, now that you have had the chance to hear both the JTR 215's and the 212' do you have any thoughts in regards to the differences. I would love to know about any sound impressions you might have. I am sure they are both great speakers! Thanks.

[@Youthman]

Still to date one of the absolute best home theaters I have experience had the 212s, but Tony spends a ridiculous amount of time calibrating and has a fully acoustic treated room. It’s impossible to compare to different speakers in two completely different rooms with two completely different systems and completely different acoustics. There is nothing the 212s are lacking except if you were running them just in a two channel set up with no subwoofer. Then I would go with the 215s.

@@Kickinitwithd18 That's good to hear. One of my future builds includes a full JTR setup, but I want everything in-wall or behind the screen. A bit tough with those size speakers to put "in-wall". So was always looking for an alternative that features a similar compression driver. The JBL Synthesis has been crushing it since they've been released. I do believe Ascendo speakers are all compression drives as well. I'm sure you can't go wrong with either to pair with JTR. Heck, maybe I'll go with 3 RTJ towers in the front and JBL SCL-2 for sides and surrounds and for atmos use the SCL-3's. I've also read and heard from people that have owned both JTR and JBL M2, that the JBL M2's are insanely good. Might have to put those on the short list as well. So many choices!!! haha.

Actually I sold the LaScalas two years ago - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJ_XlIitfJeDoJIsi=5qEjSXayygbuO1rD and upgraded to JTR Noesis 212HTR for LCR. The. 10 months ago, I upgraded my Klipsch surrounds and Atmos to JTR 110HT-SL kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWOVhaimfs5mY9Esi=qin2LRmLRkhJbqU0

Very nice buddy. Would love to get a tour of this room.

It would be a 3hr drive but I could get you connected. Text me if interested.

Sweet set up, great looking room , Cudos for your guest going DIY , I have a similar story and hope that my room looks as good as yours one day . Definitely not a budget theatre but you saved lots on doing it thanks to KZbin University . Also love the T shirt : Jesus does still saves !!!! God bless . Happy New Year Youthman !
