well ok, that settles it. I guess I missed the part where it was 4:3. It did seem to more of a "business" projector, but I didn't think that would neccessairly make it unfit for home. I haven't shopped for projectors since I bought my 4805 so i'm rusty on the good stats. Thanks for the input

I have the old Infoucs 4805.

Some one I know is getting rid of a PJ452 projector, I have a old InFoucs one that is about 5 years old and on the fritz, would this make an adequate replacement for my current one? It only sees mild usage for movies and some HD TV. The spces seem about the same, but I would like a second and...

I had a bad sub, SVS shipped me new ones and now I just need to send them back... Should I do anything to break them in?

Thanks for your help. The gain is around the 4th mark and I have tried adjusting it. I guess I will give SVS a call. Thanks.

I have the amp on "auto on" and the LED light is red. And when i turn my receiver on the light turn green. So the amp knows that it is getting a signal, it isn't getting out...

OK so let me just see if I did this right. I just have a mono cable coming out of the receiver going to the sub, but when i unplug it there no noise, no pop, no hum, nothing. So then I took a stereo RCA cable and to the L and R of the sub with the sub on and touch the opposite L and R ends...

I was watching a movie last night and there was no sound coming from my sub, it worked just the other day and I didn't change anything in the settings. My amp has power and I checked my receiver and it doesn't appear that there are any setting on there that is limiting my LFE output... But it...

I picked up the sub you were really looking for. I got the 12-plus/2 in Rosewood on B-stock around 2 months ago... nothing wrong with it either and i got it shipped for the price of the textured black before shipping. Mine is a little over kill but that is what i wanted i'm sure you'll be pleasd

Yeah that is one of my favorite ones... it does shake the house pretty good, i just do feel it like i would like.

I was looking into a BFD... I measured my sub frequency response, it is in this thread here: http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htf/...=1#post3130492

well i went a head and measure my sub frequency response and this is what it looks like. I attached the graph that i created, I sent the output with a Pink noise until it read 75dB and went from there. My meter didn't pick up any thing until 15Hz and in the 190Hz and over it was hard to...

how did you over come that?

do i do this will all of my speakers on, or just my sub?

The ports are about 24" from the wall, one side is about 2" from the wall, and the front is about 2" from the couch, and the 4th side is open to the room. I was playing with it last night with one of my old Bass CD's and playing with my reciever to see if i could make it better. It appears...

I found a site that offered free Mp3's of test tones from 10hz-300hz in 1Hz incriments (10 seconds at each point) I'm going to try to get a plot together response. To do that I assume i set my level to 70ish dB and then play the frequency and record the dB reading, then plot the increase in...

yea, i bought the radio shack meter and calibrated it, a few dB hotter then the other speakers, but the gain is only about 1/4 the way up and the reciever sub out is set to 0 dB. I'll check the settings again though too, afterall i wasn't happy with my surround sounds until i realized that my...

Really? I thought the corner is usually the best place for it. Is this one of those times that I put the sub in front of my couch and crawl around on the floor listening for the best sounding bass, and then put the speaker there?

yes... yes i am. Here is a sketch of my room... it is old, i've moved and removed speakers, but the basics are still the same. My SVS is in the upper left corner of the room.

I do have an old test disc with some sin waves and sweeps, is there a specific tone or sweep that i need?

I just got my sub and calibrated everything… I during movies I feel as though my bass is a little muddied (I have a pb12-plus2 so I don’t think the sub is the issue). I tried it with a CD that has some deep strong bass and the bass was very weak. I turned up the gain and that only seemed to...

how do i know what my curve looks like, what do i have to do to see all of this?

Well i have HTD level 3 speakers all around and a SVS 12plus/2. I have a pioneer 1015thx... The only adjustment i have for the speakers is the "large/small" option, and I have a 50/80/100/150/200Hz adjustable cross over, which i think is for my sub. I do have a adjustable EQ for each speaker, I...

yep that was it... I had it on the "advance surround" setting, i changed it to "standard" and it sounded just fine.

yeah, that is what i want. I'm working on trying to tune that in... i'm trying to figure all that out.

I’ve just got my HT all hooked up and now I want to be sure that I’m getting the most out of my speakers. I have calibrated the level’s on all my speakers so far but how do I know if my crossover points are set correctly, or that the EQ on all my channels is optimized? Do I need to know the...

how do i adjust my PEQ... i have heard about using an SPL meter and excel... I just havent found a good write up on it yet. is it somthing that I can tune by ear using a 40hz sine wave or somthing... i have an old test CD from my car stereo days....

thanks for the advice... I'm still trying to dial in my sub (pb12-plus2)... I used my recievers tones to adjust the levels, everything to 75-75 dB, but i bumped the sub up a few because i love base.... I'm just not getting the punch in the back of the head that some people describe. I think i...

I know that the standard is to put your mains on “small” and let your sub do the work… however I get good bass out of my mains (HTD level 3 towers, crossed at 50Hz until I hook up the sub, then I might bring it up higher). Am I going to limit my subs performance by having my mains set to large...

So I’m almost done with my first 5.1 setup. I just got my sub so I haven’t had a chance to calibrate it yet. But for my other 5 speakers I have the HTD level 3 speakers (towers up front and bookshelf’s for the surrounds), I don’t have an spl meter yet so I set them up using my receivers...
