CP500 sell for like cheaper than fish n' chips at £50.00 and it won an oscar but ain't as good as CP200, but still cheap. CP650 still £££ too much and never will buy one. Don't like that dinky size screen it has too small. Then again same with SDDS D3000, small screen but its only to navigate...

Well just take a picture of it tomorrow it be okay. Use the same scene as I posted above. Its daylight looks natural.

Let see a screen camera picture got a DLSR for a good picture capture? I will not buy the bluray its rubbish they zoomed in but too close and cropped off the rest of the scope image. I keep the region 1 DVD, looks and sounds great in THX, when that Jaws nibbles on "FitzRoyce" wow the room moves...

Get two more JBL and get that DFP-D2000 running some SDDS 8 channel. Sure there some prints about of the odd 200 so that was done. Black Hawk Down, Last Action Hero, In Line of Fire, (Surf's Up, which was the last SDDS 8)

Well all you need is a booth monitor and laptop with RCA lead wired onto the monitor mono output and download free spectrum lab and run Twister SR-D and use the mix LCR monitor button get some waterfalls. Then repeat the process do waterfalls of the R1 DVD or bluray or laserdisc AC-3, HD-DVD...

There is sod all can be done with surrounds when it switches from stereo surround to analog they go matrix mono. If you have a rain scene sounds like white noise and you or should detract the switching difference. The rain in digital will sound different to the analog due to some parts of the...

SDDS only in a few cinemas around london and on any visit there no film seems to be playing or announced its playing, not like how 70mm was advertised clearly. I don't mind listening to worn SR-D switching from digital to SR and I can hear the tiny differences but at least the back-up worked...

Don, Is that 35mm SR-D or bluray Dolby digital. Saw The Fugitive (1993) when it premiered exclusively with on loan Dolby Stereo DA10 for some 8 weeks in ABC screen 1, I enjoyed the first day performance it was cracking loud on the JBL 4675A five screen in 3 screen with the split-surrounds...

Well easiest way is playing sine wave sweep tones (looped) or (manually). I use ether the Dolby CP500 own internal quick checking of speakers (recently for the new/used JBL 8330 to see if all is fine). For a little critical I'll use REW I can sweep (up and down) manually or set it to...

I can just see Dr.McCoy with his medical scanner. "The room is dead, Jim" :lol: Mine is dead enough so I don't hear annoying echo degrading common dialogue into a layers and layers of echo that takes millisecond to decay in some large cinemas that don't have well treated auditoriums.

Simple cheapest route is drapes well look at most classic cinemas that have drapes all around the auditorium. Have you walked around the room clapping your hand (one clap at a time) and listen for any reflection bouncing off the hard parallel walls ceiling to floor. Every room will have it...

Don, I gather you have Oppo bluray with 8ch set to 6ch and do you have RCA to D-25 lead to back of 650 on 6ch input external format 11. Do you have windows pc rigged up to 650 as its all software remote controlled for setting analogue and digital sound EQ levels frame rate delay surround, gosh...

Don, I have worked at two cinema chains UCI and Warner Bros and cleaning the floor everyday is a discipline to making sure all is clean spotless and I agree with it. Costumers pay to see a film not dirt and hairs 8 feet tall on the screen lol. I gave it few days thought when offered 35mm...

Mike, if you have no respect for 35mm. The booth floor needs to be spotless clean every day. It needs to be laminated or tiled so it can vacuumed cleaned and moped and dried so its spotless of dust dirt and hairs so it doesn't get stuck to the film and ends on projector. Never drag film across...

Mike, No post was for Brian, as he likes to think he wants to get one. Too many things to learn before threading and lacing up film. Lots of safety guidelines. I learned this 25 years ago.

Brian, its not cheap to run. xenon lamps are not cheap. There is the film itself you need a store room for it. Climate Controlled all year around and up goes the costs of electricity bill for the all year around. I recommend cake platter as its lot easier than messing around with reel...

So, Don, is the projector running the red LED for analogue. Don't want to list titles well guess you don't want bluray guys rushing around. :lol: Is that the 8330 mkI or mkII models you have as I have x4 myself and x4 more to fit this month. I have only heard non-sync music being played over...

I didn't say it was Kinoton. I said I was offered 35mm for £250.00 could have been a Kinoton. The guy had few of them and cake platters and rollers and lamp house that can run on 240v lots of cheap flat and anamorphic lenses for £25.00. I shoukd have brought the scope lenses and stripped them...

You can get 35mm next to nothing on ebay now if you keep your eyes peeled. I was offered one for £250.00 a few years ago, but I knew it would be hassle to fit in the kitchen with another port hole in the wall. Most projectors pulled from cinemas go in storage awaiting want? To go to the skip or...

Yeah very nice. I like the way you placed the rollers on the ceiling with spools on the wall. Any chance of a cake platter x3 placed near to PK60D is that the digital sound on the top of the projector. I guess you can wash the films to keep them clean. :D What voltage are you using for the...
