Added an additional user format Mono Academy User 3.

Coma (1978)
Playing in Mono Academy User 3 format as been formatted so I can switch from User 1 Dolby Stereo non-sync 1, over to User 3 with no sound breaks when switching sound format.
I like the Mono Academy HF roll off.

Re-aligning the compression drivers for all three HF horns.
Play pink noise wide-band
Loosen three screws a little bit and then jiggle the compression diaphragm while listening to the small changes and observing the RTA at the same time until a good overall frequency from 500Hz to 16KHz is achieved. Can take a while to check each driver/horn.

A classic film and music of John Williams is so fitting and the candle blowing out perfect timing...

THX Cimarron trailer blows out candle. The SPL db in the room after the candle blew out, send a large wave or air blowing around the room and vibration that I could feel in the concrete flooring.

Be careful playing with fire Andy! I get what you are going for but as a volunteer fireman I can tell you that simple candles have burnt the most houses down in fires I have been to.

Arrived this afternoon a few days early than expected but had a feeling the THX force was strong tracking the package that arrived in UK a few days ago. It fits.
Giving it a wash in the washing machine and should be dry around late tonight.
Original THX typeface unlike the new THX s-shirts of today since the company split apart and went private in the early 2000's as the new t-shirts only say "THX" today I prefer the original and been after one of these for years.

Oh cool. "The audience is listening... " Yes I am a listener of film soundtracks.
