Really appreciate your valuablle infor. n pictures.

Bass trap a little bit tricky. You need to get your carpenter nail it at four corner of your panel to your wall. Then use black silicon to glue up the edge.

I am thinking of doing it the simple way like this.


just hang the panel in the corners.

I read from website that the acoustic treatment should be covered with at least 60% , corner should be bass trap with thicker layer of panel and frame , side wall will prefer high/md range absorber , where front/ back are covered with diffusor , what is your comment .

covering 60% of a room seems too much and may make the room sound dead.

most "experts" recommend that the key is at least covering major spots in a room- 4 corners, 2 sidewalls and ceiling for first reflections, the tri-corner areas, diffusor for back wall; i.e. like the diagram in earlier post.

many also recommend to have a "live" floor ( hard floor) so that some reflections can still occur.

Not covering all 60% area with mid/low bass trap , like side /back wall , diffusors are applied , room will not be too dead . However some audio expert suggest to have absorber instead of diffusor on side wall. But this will depend on the room condition .

wats the diff between diffusers and basstraps??

It cant absorb low bass and bass will rebound. So bass will not deep.

bass trap---to trap the bass and avoid rebound
diffusor----to reflect incoming sound to many different direction ----to minimize echo

why is it on some movies, if i set my dvd to upscale to 720p and connect it to hd65 via hdmi...the jagged edge staircase effect on diagonal lines are still prominent (e.g shots of roof. pyramid) although the colours and depth on the movies are improved? But on some movies, there's no problem...

so a bit confused here...

depends if the MDF is bearing any heavy load, but i would use screws or nails to be sure that it stays fixed and not be loosened by vibrations.

Sorry arr advert skit....Anybody want to sell their HD65 plz PM me. TQ

not much chance coz most units still less than 12 months old. better u buy new from htkaki

very nice room...but the view distance vs the screen size abit small

also too high like sitting a few row infront from screen

maybe they lean more on the chair??

View distance is around 1.4x. My screen is around 8' width and seating distance is close to 11'. Can't go bigger as it'll block the access to the side door. The screen height is 3' from the floor. I just change my sofa to 3 seated recliner chair and I'll say the height is just nice when you recline the chair. Using HTPC, I had no problem too when sit up straight as I can use Media Player Classic to move wide screen movie to the bottom of the screen.
