Hi all, i recently purchased a new home and it came with a dedicated home theater room. I have a tendency to always want the biggest and best. I understand that is not always the best thing to do when building a home theater. I attached a diagram of the room. It is not a huge room. I am looking...

Hi there! I'm brand new here and looking for a bit of experience in putting together a future home theater. I'm selling my current house and buying one this spring...an amazing basement is on my MUST HAVE list because I would love to have a great space to entertain and have my home theater. I...

Wondering if anyone has the 5 and the 6 dvd set for Ray Bradbury's Theater show. Would love 1 extra disc to make the difference. I only have the 5 and it's disappointing but still so much fun to watch. Thank you in advance.

Hello-, First timer here and yes, I signed up just to ask a question. If I can contribute in any small way I will, but my ignorance is what brought me here, so you've been warned! ;) We just bought a house and the living room is equipped with some speakers mounted in/on the walls, I believe...

Howdy. New to this forum. Looks like a great resource with lots of helpful folks. Pardon the lengthy intro, but I figure it will save some Q&A to get helpful feedback. I'm not new to home theater. Have built 5.1 and 7.1 setups in previous homes. Building a new home, and I have a blank...

With great sorrow, I have to sell my M&K theater. Sonically it is perfect, no blow speakers. They were bought from a dealer 3 years ago and have been used rarely. The Tripoles are mint condition, the S150's may have a little scuffing on the outside due to being mounted in the ceiling. I have...

I am a new home theater enthusiast and this may seem like a silly question, but I recently acquired four Sonance Professional Series PS-P83T pendant speakers. They are primarily used for commercial use. They are 70V/100V/ with an 8 Ohm bypass. Would I be able to use these speakers as overhead...

Hi Home Theater Forum community, In case anybody is interested in an excellent home theater projector system... I need to liquidate my great setup which I have been enjoying every now and then for the past 2 years. This setup was purchased at Best Buy/Magnolia in Union Square NYC. I need to...

I've had my VMPS main speakers for almost 24 years. The front baffles are 3 inches thick. The overall weight is 350 lbs. The woofers are made of carbon fiber. The bass is rated to be down 3 dB at 14 Hz. In short, the build quality is much better than the typical speaker, more typical of very...

Sorry for the cross-posting, this was in the New Members forum too. I’m building a new HT from the ground up, although I still have most of my old gear, which consists of: Onkyo TX-SR 876 receiver Paradigm sub Paradigm middle channels PSB Image center chamber and rear surrounds. (I gave away...

I wish my audiences (and viewing space) could be bigger, but I am starting to have great fun planning interesting double-features for the few who attend. For many years I have thought it would be amazing to be a programmer for, say, TCM -- those people must feel they're stealing their salaries...

I just finished watching SUMMERTIME (David Lean, 1955, with Katherine Hepburn and Rossano Brazzi) on a German Region B Blu-ray from Concorde, and was excited about how beautiful the film is. I'd seen it before, but the color and clarity of this disc made the experience very new and really...

Yesterday afternoon, the UPS man brought me the brand new Oculus Go. I'm not a gaming person at all, and I've never had a chance to play with VR. My interest is in movies and music. I have a screening room in my home with a HD projection system, surround sound and a ten foot screen. Watching...

Hi Forum Members, I'm in the home stretches of my home theater and need help choosing equipment. I have gotten past the stage of the build process and I took into account as much as I could based on these forums in the design and build. Things incorporated. 1. Separate air return and vent for...

I finally have my own projection home theater. Yea. The problem is that the room is also the guest room - used about 4-6 weeks total a year. Our current solution was to use a high quality futon and a foam topper. This gave us seating when it was a theater that could be converted to a bed for...

I am very happy to own a Paradigm Home Theater System (CT100) with Denon AVR X-520BT. The usage is 50% Music, 25% Music Concerts/Videos & 25% Movies. I am planning to upgrade only the Front Speakers to Bookshelf or even Floor Standing Speakers as long as I dont have to change the AVR since the...

First of all I need to put out the fact that I live in a mobile home currently and that this is my first home theater setup. I am purchasing a Sony 930E 65" or 55" depending on space and total cost. The plan is to go 5.0 or 5.1 using: Definitive Technology BP 9020 Towers, Definitive...

Hi, I'm wondering and hoping that this would be the place to post and get some help with a Home Theater project of mine; it has nothing to do with equipment but finishing. I'm building my very first HT and in finishing stages. I built a straight riser in the back to accommodate five seats for...

New to the forum as well as to home theater projects. I currently have an older Samsung TV hung above a fireplace with several devices (3 HDMI, 1 optional HDMI, 1 Component, 1 Composite) plugged directly into it. Currently no external sound equipment (receiver or sound bar). We are currently in...

In the next month or so, I'm getting rid of my old Panny HTS (SC-BTT490) home theater in a box, and switching to soundbar set-up (not interested in going with separate AV receiver, speakers, etc). I;ve done some research and 99.9% sure I'm going with this Nakamichi unit. Supports 4k HDR...

Hey guys, I've lurked for a long time and have already learned a lot that I thought I knew in terms of building out my actual room. I'm a general contractor so the building part I'm confident in, but I am needing some technical help as it's been a good whole since I've really delved into...
