This is going to help me so much with my future build. Same exact room dimensions.

[@BuildMontage]

Awesome! There is a more recent tour video after this one I released last week :)

[@CenterNut]

I put sound absorption squares across my entire ceiling. Nothing on the walls at all and I have zero echo in the room. Not sure if that was good or bad, but it sounds good.

[@BuildMontage]

I already had my full ceiling lined in acoustic pinboard -airgapped- as well, and tons of echo still. The diffusers and absorbers and the curtain did the trick!

I’m watching all of your videos, my room in basically the same size as yours after you have built your alcove for your speakers 4.4*3.5m at 2.7m I’m going 5.2.4 Krix symmetric front and rear, Atmospherix in ceiling, 2x tektonic subs. We live in adelaide 5 mins from krix. I’m struggling if we go single row with bean bags if needed or 2 row,

[@BuildMontage]

Awesome 😎 I would not go two rows. I did - u can see my earlier videos and I went down to a single row. It was a big improvement.

[@TwistRox]

Did you think about using a cinemascope screen?

[@BuildMontage]

My room is too narrow for scope - if i got one it would be tiny! If you saw the demo, I get amazing black levels with blanking and my dark room.

[@garym1199]

Tony, your theater is inspiring. I am in the process of building my own & incorporating numerous ideas you used. I was interested in using Krix speakers like yours, or the MX-20 or MX-30. Unfortunately I reached out to the company with no reply. I live in the US (California) & that may be the issue. The speakers look impressive & I love the front modular design. Also like the specs that they are not super deep taking up too much real estate. Enjoy your enthusiasm & videos.

[@BuildMontage]

Thanks Gary - I have changed a lot of things since this tour - you can see my updated one on my channel page. And no, Krix do not sell in the USA, so you would possibly have to try another brand similar like Klipsch or Monitor Audio which do a similar style to Krix, however, Krix are the pioneers of this design releasing in 2015.

Principles are basically still the same. Networking gear at the top. Computing/servers middle and ups at the bottom. Also need to allow for space for hot air to escape so rack fans and aircon is a good thing too.

Tony. Should I get a QNAP or a Synology? I'm a novice NAS user, not super technical. Like I've never setup a RAID or done any of that. Also, am I better to set it up as a RAID or just regular drives and then backup to USB drives / static backups?

[@jamiet74]

Very nice room! It would be nice to see the "after" REW graph with the same level of smoothing as the "before" graph though

[@BuildMontage]

No smoothing on that. That's a live sweep with PEQ filters added. Blew us away as well how good the response was after adding the filters. We worked on that for around 3 weeks on and off.

[@jamiet74]

@@BuildMontage Are you sure???I would check with Leo,I would guess it has 1/6 Oct smoothing. If there is no smoothing, that is BY FAR the smoothest "Subs + speakers" "in-room" response I've ever seen in the 100Hz to 200hz range . Even with the 10dB increments on the Y axis you would normally see some peaks and nulls in this transition region. If so, well done mate

[@BuildMontage]

@@jamiet74 ok I’ll check with Leo... I’m pretty sure we didn’t do that. We spent about 3 weeks via remote control every night tweaking so hard to get that. We applied several PEQ filters. I’ll ask him and report back!

@@jamiet74 hi mate you are correct it has a 1/6 smoothing applied . Tony should have a response saved with no smoothing which is absolutely incredibly too .

[@TylerStout]

Been a while since I saw the last home theater tour that you linked but man what an improvement in the last year or so. Do you have a UPS battery backup for your projector? Definitely worth getting as in the scenario where you lost power while watching you could fry your bulb because when your turn off the projector they usually will run for a bit to cool off the bulb before actually turning off which wouldn't happen in this scenario.

[@BuildMontage]

Hi there, yes, my whole house is on a backup - Tesla Powerwall :) It has 10% always in reserve for power failure and protects against surges and loss of power from mains.

Great home theater but honestly, what are you doing with that Epson? Can’t believe you’d have a theater as nice as you do and not run a JVC or Sony projector. I can understand not running separates due to budget, but an Epson? That is the weak link.

[@BuildMontage]

If you want to buy me one go for it! I’ll happily take a donation. The Epson is best in class for the price and is literally 1/4 of the price of an NX7. Besides the throw distance is too long for my room. I’m VERY happy with what I have but thanks for the feedback.

Sure happy to share this - so my bass management is with the Minidsp - I have 3 subs. I have the subs all aligned - with PEQ filters generated in REW) and then aligned again with the front left and right speakers to get a nice response and for that to happen my front left and right speakers are crossed over at 110Hz, and all my remaining speakers cross over at 80Hz. This was after a lot of testing and trial and error and room sweeps in REW.
