My BR5 floor standing speakers with the BR-LCR on the wall shelf i bought from Ikea. Tucked in the left corner is my Creative S750 Gigaworks subwoofer.

This is my left BR-FX surround speaker mounted on the wall

This is the left BR-FX behind the wall where we hid the wiring and put under the rug to neaten it up

This is the right BR-FX which as you can see is hiding the cables behind the couch and is along the curtain rail.

The BR5, BR-LCR, BR-FX and the Rhodium wiring cables all total to RM 4.2 K :]






Anyway if you see from my setup, i have eliminated the need for a dvd player as dvd sources online are freely available. For blue ray i have 2 choices. Download 720p or 1080p blue ray rips online to watch over the popcorn, OR pop in a blue ray disc into my PS3 to watch.

Popcorn makes my home theater media experience so much flexible and enjoyable

With my setup i got the following support which i tested and confirmed.

Videos:

H264

XVID



Containers

MKV

AVI







Audio:

AC3

DTS

AAC 24000 hz

AAC 48000 hz

MP3

WMA Pro

Mpeg 1

Good lord, do you know how to resize pics? I never have to scroll right when surfing on my 24" widescreen, and you made me scroll!

Looks fine on my 24''

Also i scared to scale it because people would then complain why i post low reso pics LOL!

On my forum i installed an auto scaler mod that lets you show full screen and back to scaled image

Ok. Here is my setup :

LCD : Samsung 46" Full HD F series
Source : PS3 & Pioneer DV-400V
AV Receiver : Onkyo 606
Front Speaker : Mission M33i
Center Speaker : Mission MH3 Center
Surround Speaker : Mission MH3 Surround
Subwoofer : Whaferdale SW150
Cable : Chord Carnival Silver (front & center), Audioquest G-Snake (Subwoofer), No brand for surround

Front View


Back View

wahh nice and very neat set up! ur samsung must have cost you a bomb! so now you've completed your set up? still anything to upgrade ma?

Thanks. Yeah, I bought the LCD for RM9000 last year. I'm planning to add another back surround later. The rear sound field is not enough as my surround speaker is too small. Same goes to the center speaker.

hmm i thought you can set the speakers loudness thru ur avr, try setting ur surround and centre to higher volume and see..

Yap what HDTV is that ? Looks very impressive my friend

Hei i saw an article in the newspaper today tech section about the Mission speakers. Looked good

Yeah, that's what I'm doing now. Set the center & surround higher. However even though the sound is louder but the dialog is not so clear.

mr crazyconsumer,

tumpang tanya hope u dont mind me asking,


the AV wall would it cost me a leg and arm to hire ppl to do one?

when i renovated my home i asked the girl if she could tell me the rough cost and she said expensive, ...so i didnt go through.. hehhe

the rack is nice

care to share where u get ur popcorn?

iman, u can get it either online or thru a seller in penang

Wood fittings is not that expensive, it depends on the material.... can be laminate or chipboard, etc.. It's just like kitchen cabinet calculation.

If you want no fuss kind, places like HARVEY NORMAN or MEDIAPLEX carry the standard AV wall cabinet setup (no need custom make) .... cost about 7+K, comes with nice lighting, glass/shelves, cabinets, etc.... you should go see for yourself at IKANO or KLCC.

Better calibrate your speakers' level.

If problem is not volume but clarity, could be speakers or wiring problem.

The popcornhour official website. I order online pay by credit card. Since i am in Malaysia they will ship from their outlet in China for the Asia region.

I however had to wait a whole month to get mine .... i wasn't taxed because i ask them to put it as a gift



Anyway RX says he bought his from Penang, so maybe they have stock and can ship to you faster ? Not sure how much their asking for though

I paid around Rm 800 for mine ( shipping cost for courier UPS tallied into that ).

yes, they have it in stock, i bought it for rm 800 inclusive of shipping to jaybee as well

How long did it take between ordering and for it to arrive for you rx ?

wah elite setup
i think i need to save years for that.

moogle, upon confirmation, 2 days
