RM2k+ and RM7k+.

But not a lot of places stock them anymore as production for these speakers has ceased. Klipsch owns Jamo now, so here's hoping Jamo can re-release them or something.

I don’t think is going to be able to use this with other hardware. Better to check with Samsung

Get one with a frequency response closer to 80hz. That would be the 65 to 67/PT

Hi guys currently shopping around for a projector screen. Found Venova tab tension 120" screen for about 2.4k, and Grandview 120" CNV series for about 1.4k.

Anyone heard/used Venova screens before? Can't find any reviews on this screen.

Tab tension for Grandview is going for about 3.4k, which is out of my budget.

Got other screen suggestions are welcomed. Setting up first home theater. Projector is Epson TW 5650.

Anyone using SVS subs here? If so, any important good/bad comments about it? If I were to pay more for any other subs, which one do you recommend? Thanks in advance! notworthy.gif

Many who are serious about HT in Malaysia are already using SVS subs. Not only because they great subs, but because htkaki is a fantastic in customer support and an overall super friendly dude.

Sure we don't have as many choices like in the US where you can get JTR, Seaton, Funk, PSA, Hsu and so on... you're kinda spoiled for choices there in the west, so SVS hasn't really been the king in price-performance as it once was. But it's no denying that their subs are still great.

Unless you can ship in something from JTR or Seaton (and if you can, you probably have super deep pockets anyway so you might as well hire someone to DIY you some monster dual 24" subs instead), otherwise I don't think you should pay anymore for subs other than SVS - in Malaysia specifically. An alternative is Rythmik which is being brought in by Sound Fusion these days and I'm mighty impressed with the FV18HP.

Alright alright! Thanks for the detailed reply! I feel like this industry is so slow-moving in Malaysia. Don't Malaysians care about AV fidelity? Anyway, have been eyeing on the PB-4000 for quite some time now... but I've talked to Max from htkaki in June/July but couldn't get myself to go down to NS... yet

Salute you sir haha! Have been reading and watching reviews for more than a year... hoping to actually get the sub and SVS' mid channel speaker too but it's a bit too tall for my setup... (8.2 inches) I think I'll go listen to them first... Thanks for your reply too!

Nope. Majority don't care or know enough about good audio and visuals. Many see "4k and HDR" and they would instantly think it's good. Many see 200w x 7 on a receiver and they think the amp is outputting 1400w. Many see a soundbar with atmos and they think it's real atmos. So, unfortunately the market here is very niche.

The PB4000 is a great sub and like all subs, placing it well is key. Which SVS center channel speaker are you interested in? The Prime or Ultra?

Btw, if you are from KL - you don't have to go to Seremban. You can contact Chong from Actsessory Shoppe.

I really hope that speaker companies do not follow the fate of Oppo digital... Now I can't find a competing uhd bluray player but the Cambridge Audio CXUHD. I want to future-proof my system but it seems like it's the format wars happening all over again, so I haven't pulled the trigger to get the player...

Interested in the SVS ultra center speaker... Still doing research in finding the best non-powered center channel speaker at that price point... or a bit more...

Mr. Max recommended me to head down to their shop because they have a dedicated space for demo-ing. 1 hour drive for me from PJ...

Had been using SVS since 8 years ago starting from PC12-NSD -> PB13U x 2 -> PB16 & SB16. Totally no regret with SVS subs. If you have deep pocket than can try JL Fathom F113. What front speaker you have ? Is better to match with the center. You join in the FB of home theatre Malaysia. Plenty of members using SVS subs

While there has been a rise of popularity in soundbars over the last 3 years, the individual speaker market (outside of Malaysia that is) is growing. So I doubt many companies are going to become Bose.
The growth in Malaysia is also not stagnant, it is moving - just very slowly.

The SVS Ultra center is a good center. I had the Prime center for a long time and also the Ultra for a brief month or so. It's a fairly meaty center channel, great off-axis imaging due to the 3 way design. My minor criticism with it is that its soundstage isn't wide enough for very big screens (I'm talking above 120") and at very high volumes, the tweeter MAY be a tad bright (I didn't mind it but many don't like bright speakers so just a note).

If you can head down to NS, then of course all the better. Actsessory at SS2 is much nearer to you though and Chong does have a full SVS system (also calibrated by Max) for demo.

Planning to upgrade my towers in the future but the center channel is somewhat lacking so that's why I'm looking into a more capable center when watching movies loud ( as in non-hurting volume lol)

I appreciate both audio and visual though... I have sensitive hearing... Is it a gift or curse? I wake up in the slightest sound, can hear very quiet noises and they bother me... After experiencing OLED, I can't go back to LCD anymore haha!

As I have been spoiled by super high-end systems after visiting the KL AV Show, I'm more of a movie guy now... Thank you for the information! I'm okay with bright as I like to hear the shards of glass flying towards me LOL Isn't Actsessory in Subang Jaya? You seem to know Mr. Chong very well.....
