My current HT setup consists of one of those TV "cubby holes" above a gas fireplace, which is not big enough for a wide screen TV (IMO a 30" HDTV just doesn't cut it)... The "hole" has all the wiring necessary, so, what I would like to do is replace the cabinet doors with a solid hinged door on...

I have the Velodyne CT-150 currently and I too am saving for the PB2+. Is there really that much difference between the two when it comes to overall quality? I know what everyone says on these forums but can it really be that big of an improvement? I am hoping so but hard to believe since I am...

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

I do have access to the Video Esentials as well but I did not see anything that told you what frequency was actually being played at that moment. Maybe I just missed it. Does it give some sort of indication what freq is being played or do I need some special sound meter?

Is there a tool out there that will provide the different frequencies so that I can tell how low my sub is going? I have used the calibration DVD from Sound and Vision to adjust the db levels but am not sure how low my sub will actually go.

Thanks David. In reading tons of reviews, I am considering the possiblity of either the SPL1200 or the SVS PB2+. They both run close in price but I have no way of hearing the SVS so Velodyne has the edge at this point. I know that SVS has a 45 day return policy but shipping will cost me...

I currently have the original CT-15 and I have been happy with it but like the typical home theater enthusiast, I am always looking for ways to improve my system. My question is will the SPL-1200 be an improvement or is the 15 going to out perrform the 1200 because of the 15" driver? Will the...

Please help me make a decision on a purchase that I want to make. I have a dedicated home theater and want to move from a 50" Toshiba 4x3 RPTV to a Mitsubishi 65" 16x9 RPTV. I am torn between 2 models. The ws-65313 and ws-65413. The price differences between the 2 are about $180 and need to get...

Can someone recommend where I might find a personalized plaque that I can put up in the entrance to my theater? I have seen the ones the light up but dont really want to deal with the additional light in the room and dont really want to pay that much for it. Thinking something like the black and...

Can someone advise me as to where I can get some home theater chairs. I would like to get the ones that are typically seen in the nicer commercial theaters. Is there a web site that offers these at reasonable prices? Thanks, Bill

Can someone give some input on this topic? I really need to hear some experience on whether the sub should or should not be placed on the stage in regards to RPTVs. Thanks

Looking for recommendations on what type speaker wire to use in my HT. I have typically not paid attention to whether speaker wire is UL certified or not but I want to do it right this time being that I am building this theater from scratch. Talked with my local retailer and he recommended...

I am using a Velodyne CT-15 subwoofer.

Based on information obtained in this forum, I have started building the framing for my stage that will hold my 55" Projection TV, front speakers, and subwoofer. As I plan to complete this in the very near future I need to ask a couple questions. I want the cablesspeaker wire totally hidden...

The stage will hold a 65" Mitsubishi Television along with 2 front speakers and a subwoofer. Stage will be approx. 14'X 4' in size and approx. 8" high. Thanks

Can someone give me some feedback on thier experience with Mirage OM9 and OMCR2 speakers? I have been auditioning speakers for a while now and really like the sound of the Mirage line. I currently have Infinity Overture speakers and looking to upgrade them and my center channel. I have found...

Thanks very much for the advice. I plan on covering it with carpeting once I have it constructed. I will have an edge of about 2 inches to allow for me to run lights under the edge. Everything seems to point to me using MDF. I will have to do some research on finding it though. Home Depot and...

I am building a stage in my FROG that I am turning into a dedicated HT. I went to local hardware store explaining what I wanted to do and that I needed to buy sheets of MDF for the flooring. They told me that I was crazy and that I should use particle board instead and save the money. The guy...

Thanks Eric. Being that my primary use will be HT, SACD, and DVD-Audio, I am getting the feeling that a more expensive amp like a 5-7 channel Runco or B&K will be a waste of money. Should go with a less expensive amp like Outlaw or another moderate priced amp?

I currently have a Denon 3803 reciever and have been extremely impressed with it. I knew when I bought this reciever that I could add an amplifier in the future if I wanted to. In always trying to better my HT experience, I am looking into buying an amp. I recently went down to my local AV store...

Opps. Picture did not come out like I planned. :) Sorry Anyone interested in seeing this drawn in Word, please give me email address and I will be happy to send. Thanks

Hey guys, I have been reading in this forum for some time and am happy to say that I am finally buying a house with a room that will be a dedicated home theater. The room is plenty big but kinda wierd in size and wanted some suggestions on how to use the room to get the most out of it. The room...
