That's the point. I knew. Coz' many did ask about hooking up a 7.2, which I think will simply overpower my room.

All speakers are being set to small. The front is being cut off at 60Hz, center at 80Hz and the surr at 100Hz. I am not using the PC12-Plus as the PB13-Ultra simply jaw-dropping.

I have yet to do full calibration using Audyysey. Once done, I shall check again the FR with the SPL meter.

way below that price

Impressive acoustic treatment that you have there.

arremie, it does looks like Auralex to me. Is it Lernd at the front wall?

Yes, nothing beats a projector if you have the suitable environment / room for it As my own setup was being moved to my showroom, I am no longer eligible to post my setup here until I have enough moolah to build a similiar setup again in my home.

I actually have my old setup with me. Just need to plonk in an avr and a sub. That's it. Then again, I am getting used to the AQ of my current setup now

I am only a small fry. So, it ain't easy for me to have a similiar system

Btw, pls drop by again as the current system is more complete than before and the AQ is a lot better than the last time you came. I am still trying to do more improvements in it.

rahavsmt, how much did LENRD cost you? I am thinking of having it on 4 corners. Tqvm.

I got the quote for dst LERND for RM200/pc. Thinking of getting 4pcs.

heavenlySTF, wrong place to post. Try garage sales

Bro, I have get the carpenter to do 6x wooden frame (T 3"+ x 2' W x 4' H) to house the CSR Rockwool 80kg/m3 as 'bass trap'. Just need to get the cloth to cover it. So, I won't be needing that many. I just want to put LENRD up on the front wall.

I might doing more frames as I intend to sell it too. Will see how it goes.

I might go there tomorrow afternoon after setting up the PC12-NSD for a fellow forum member here. Grab it and heads back to install it.

Checked already this evening. Ada.

zerorulez, UGPM. I did not get a single photo from ronaldjoe too

Yes, but I will be using better acoustic panel. DIY 6pcs 3" x 2' x 4' frame to house rockwool 80kg/m3 to reduce standing wave. The existing 4 panels will be use at 1st reflection point and at the back wall.

Next week, I will probably do a thicker frame; 6" to put 4" thick rockwool in it. That is meant for bass trap.

remy's new toys eta tis Sat and hopefully there is no delay

btw, I am now on Audyssey DSX Wide. A whiole new watching experience Will post the new setup. erm, maybe not here since not 'qualify'

Using glove to handle it. Waiting for final touches on the 6 panels.

Yes, it will be both corners at the front wall. It would be 2' W X 8' H. The upper corners will be treated with Auralex LENRD. Once it is done up, I shall post the photo.

Bro,

Here is the photo with the acoustic foams and panels (big THANK YOU to Mr Tan for lending his hands ) Auralex LENRD is right up at the front corners.

Tq, bro. I'll 'darkened' the screen casing when I am free to make everything almost 'invisible' when watching movie.

The surround is on SCS-01(M). It is basically a 7.1 setup with Front Wide. Still doing some tweak on LFE.

Please do come over whenever you are free.

Ok, no prob. Will post it later.

Here are another 2 shots :



Will take photo of the back of the room.

Heard a lot abt horn speaker partnering with tube amp. Must be singing nicely to your ears

When are you going to take the other speaker? Btw, did you invite our friend over for an audition? Then, he'll poison you back with his newly acquired ATS rack

Btw, the new RF-62 member must be busy unpacking it now along with his RC-62



I can only envy your setup. Nice and tidy

Pardon my ignorance. Why these 4 days?

here are another few photos including rear view :
