bros,

i need your advice bout the center speaker.I'm using a RX440 match with those local speaker set (volcano). I notice the sound from the center speaker is abit low especially when playing a movie where the human voices are lower on my expectation. The center speaker actually have 2 cones and a tweeter. I tried to feel the cone when playing on a movie, it seems the voice is only coming out from the left cone with punchy vibration  and the right cone seems vibrate but seems less sound came out.. with low vibration on the cone. Is this normal? Please help.. icon_question.gif

Is ur center speaker is 3 way??

Here's my old setup, been placed like this for almost 6 years:

While other old components were being cold storaged :

Finally we moved to another place, the old equipments (some almost 20 year old or more..) are being stacked up like this :

Note this TV rack has two separate section, where the left segment can be adjusted according to the intended width.  For me I can place the subwoofer underneath but slightly off the centre.  I still haven't calibrate the subwoofer placement though.

... while the surround speakers are being placed as recommended by the various guides even from the THX website, ie. about 2-3 feet above the listener's ear level :

Here's the equipment profiles :
list:
NAD T763 2nd hand stock
Marantz CD52 MkII - circa 18 years
Marantz vintage 2252 tuner Amp served as Power Amp here for the Front Two - its an old family heritage since 1978 !  I think it gives fuller impact for the front speakers.
Front Speakers : Epos ES11 - bought 2nd hand since 1994 ? or somewhere around there.
user posted image
List Two:
Centre Speaker Definitive Technology Model CLR 2002- just acquired 2nd hand this year.
Subwoofer - Infinity 10" RS10 - also second hand.  Cost me around RM400.
My Surround is also from Definitive Technology - Model BP-2X - 2nd hand biggrin.gif
user posted image
My dream now is to get something which can drive the Epos ES11 to the fullest with reasonable cost.  Been eyeing at the Naim old set from time to time... we'll see..

Can't we place all Three horizontal then?  That should solve some problem biggrin.gif

I think it maybe workable since most of us use bookshelf unit.  And it won't elevate the position of the screen that much.

Even if we can replace center speaker with bookshelf but for me, i think they design center speaker(how they sound) different with bookshelf speaker. biggrin.gif

hey peter32,

You really do have a nice idea on soundproofing. I am planning on getting my HT room soon....just need some extensive planning and I see that you are using rockwool for your wall insulation. Is that a good bass insulation. I am living in a 2.5 storey house and have an extra masterbedroom at the highest floor. Problem is that the room is attached to my neighbor's room. Will placing at least a 4-6" rockwool insulation help in preventing bass and vibration to travel through the wall to my neighbor's room?

Thanks.

I want to know about this too. cos currently i stay at Condo. i scare kena complain... got 1 time i play MJ song very laught. D bass shake till my neighbor door also can feel it.. sweat.gif

just wonder how about my above and below unit??

Simple setup in small room

Projector: Optoma HD65
Screen: Motorized tab-tensioned screen (yeah I know the screen has some horizontal lines + that shadow at the bottom sad.gif )
Amplifier: Onkyo TX-SR875 (7.1)
Front Speakers: PSB-Alpha T1
Surround Speakers: Wharfedale Diamond 9
Center Speaker: PSB-Alpha C1
Rear Speakers : PS-Alpha B1
Subwoofer: SVS PB12-ISD

Others :
Sony PS3
Nintendo Wii
HDX-1000 (networked)
El-cheapo DVD player (can't even remember brand)
VGA wall port

No wall treatments / sound proofing ... except the room is carpeted and a raised platform for the 2nd row seats.  The 2 tables on the left and right of the front row seats (red and black ones) are laptop tables

I'll try to grab some more pics of the room next time ...
