As a native Wisconsinite I am proud but also moderately perplexed by the fact that 2 of the most popular speakers companies on home theater KZbin channels (Perlisten and JTR) are both from based in Wisconsin. I guess it make sense being that this state is a frozen wasteland for 4 to 6 months every year so staing inside and watching movies and listening to music is a preferable option over dong things outdoors during those months.

My setup doesn’t approach the price of the Perlisten. But I do have a comment on crossovers. I have Polk R700 fronts, L400 center, R200 rear surrounds, and an SVS SB-1000 in a 5.1. I’m running the LCR off Emotiva HC-1 monoblocks and the surrounds off of the TX-RZ50 AVR. I like to watch movies at reference volume fairly often. I have found that I prefer running the fronts full range and crossing the center and surrounds at 40. The speakers have a lot of bass to contribute and I enjoy bass coming from the rear speakers. According to my DIRAC measurements the fronts have an in-room response all the way to 23Hz. I don’t see a reason to give that up by setting them to small. Especially since “double bass” is an option on my AVR so I don’t lose the sub’s help.
@Jon-nz3dm2 жыл бұрын

@GameSack2 жыл бұрын
These look pretty awesome, though I've never been impressed with a horizontally-oriented design for a center channel. Reason being is that it collapses the sound stage a bit. Yes the tweeter and mid range are right in the middle, but the woofers extend quite far from the actual center. I don't care what anyone says, bass is directional. Sadly not everyone can have a vertically-oriented center channel... just one of those bad things about being in a home rather than a real theater I guess. You could always go the old AMC TORUS/HITS route and have the tweeter and midrange at the top of your screen and the woofers at the bottom. Actually I don't recommend anyone try to replicate anything AMC does at home... but with a smaller home screen it might not be so awful. Of course ideally everything would be behind the screen. And yes I run everything full range here. Again bass is directional. Home THX can get fukt, cinema THX specs are where it's at.

@@rogerhalt3991 I have no graphs, but think of it this way: if the Left, Center, and Right speakers are all playing the same sound simultaneously (like the OG Lion King Blu-ray from a while back) the sounds don't appear exactly from the center, especially if you're not sitting directly in the center. Now a sound bar wouldn't be this bad and like I said at least the treble and the mid range are directly in the center, but having the woofers out so wide would alter it a little. Oriented vertically, everything is perfectly in the center.
