it appears MK sound which makes MK speakers is closed down,their factory has been closed as per the notice on their website..now even the website is down.Is this the end of MK...

what happened to MK the website seems down,no new products is the company down and closed....i wish they never did as they make good speakers......

yes that is startling thing,does it also reflect DTS loss of earnings in q3,anyway here in India,all bollywood movies have gone the DD route on DVD ,the regional films shows a strong affinity for DTS and DTS does make the sale for many people,a DTS track on DVD does sell a disc here in my place...

i was just going through the MK and other THX speaker manufacturers pages this is what i found out you can use this for buying speaker with optimum woofer output. for this i calculated the total woofer area of each channel , i:e if front have 2*5.25 inch woofers =10.5 inches. but for...

http://www.atlantictechnology.com/whataboutmusic.html here is the text also Though this point of view sounds like it makes sense, speakers are speakers. Accurate, low distortion speakers with a neutral frequency response should be able to reproduce anything you send them. However, every...

hi i want something similar as shown in this picture http://www.cinemaequipmentsales.com/dolbycp500bro.html i want a unit where i just have the LCD display for 6 channel levels which is at the bottom and a 6 channel volume control. is there anybody who makes such a thing. i used the...

it is not a problem with DTS i think it is just that there was quite a bit of dynamic range in that track at that point dolby does sound a little less loud due to dial norm.

I have a very modest setup no where near the likes of many that see here,may i still post up my pictures... laksh

i have seen many threads on this,my onkyo manual recomneds that if the main woofer if above 12 cm then use large else use small. now if a small speaker has 2*8 cm woofers then will it count a one 16cm woofer for using this setting.

i did not mean THX post procsessing i know it is applied via a seperate DSP chip after Deocding the bit stream i meant THX certification and testing of the decoder itself.

i have a doubt THX certifies the surround decoders in AV receivers do they also do it in THX DVD players which have DD and DTS 5.1 decoding and all products having the THX logo which incorporate DD or DTS. ALso what would be the level of diff between a standard DTS decoder and THX certified...

Dialog Normalization (dialnorm) For the purpose of Dialog Normalization (also referred to as volume normalization) loudness is currently quantified using the equivalent loudness method LAeq, the long- term average of A-weighted sound pressure. The LAeq measurement correlates more closely with...

finally the answer has come read on i got this mail today from JKP Thank you for your inquiry regarding "Digital Video Essentials." No there has not been an error found on the DVE disc regarding audio levels. Dolby Laboratories did the encoding and has now checked the program twice...

One point regarding DSP circuits,strangely dolby labs themselves in one of their tech papers say that for the cinema dolby digital processor the CP500.(i have seen this model extensively during use) the dolby SR or dolby pro logic decoding in HT terms is still done in the analog domain and not...

hi back after a short trip out of town. the mix i saw was being done at 24 bit 192 khz,i sat at the pro tools console,and you can mix with pro tools and a proper console for 5.1he said they would downconvert to 20 bit 48 khz when they sent over the tape to the DTS mixing tower in chennai...

you can start with some good spl meters here digital though galaxy is a good brand with standard calibration http://www.galaxyaudio.com/galaxy/Pr...html#Checkmate available at amazon.com the cm130 is around 49 USD and the cm140 if u have a better system can be used .it costs 99 USD...

here is some info on why the track needs to remastered for a Home envoirment. http://mixonline.com/recording/inter..._casa_studios/

ok first point as i mentioned in my post i used a THX unit at home for listening and it compensates the +4db dialnorm diff between DD and DTS the dial norm on DD is normally -27dbfs Now secondly it was not a double blind entirely,but there is very little influence of the so called placebo...

How important is calibration in a Home Theater after sometime of wait i could finally lay my hands on a SPL meter a analog one similar to radio shack,previously my system did sound very good,and though not boasting many people said it was the best HT they saw.Now i got the SPL meter set up C...

FIRST OF ALL THIS IS NOT ANOTHER DD VS DTS THREAD ONLY OBSERVATIONS.. i was waiting to post this till i did my evaluations on the matter. i had to chance to visit a local DTS mixing stage and watch 3 films being mixed for 5.1 surround sound at 24 bit 192 khz in pro tools. It sounded...

I do know a little about the basic and extended surround formats coutesy HTF primers,what i wanted to know specifically was at the studio encoder level.

I was curious to know how often dolby and DTS update their home audio codecs for DVD. As they both say in their tech papers that the improvements in the encoder side(software+hardware) pass on into the decoder when the bit stream is decoded.So is it possible that having a disc of titanic SE will...

the r2 french version had a very good anamorphic transfer in 1.85:1 ratio and english DTS and DD DTS rocks on the mask i own the new line DD version also and this blows it away except for PAL speedup which is noticeable to me . it is now out of stock at amazon.fr.

nice to see a bollywood thread on HTF anyway try a film called anupama starring dharmendra one of the best uses of background score in any film i have seen and the use of light and shadow is like Guru Dutt movies wonderful . Also in telugu tollywood try out films like swathimuthyam...

thanks a lot

can anybody please give the links for the LOTR fellowship and two towers extended cut reviews on HTF not able to find in search.

just got the 3 disc set of SPR with DTS and was just watching shooting for war which in itself is a superb piece but the crown jewel is price for peace running 84 min it is the crown jewel of all war documentaries and so moving and real that made me shed tears unknowingly . those of yu who...

crimson tide is out with anamorphic transfer and DTS and enemy of the state with DD 5.1 and anamorphic widescreen both are r3 and out on 2nd august at koreandvds.com preorders are on.

hi i just got the r3 version from koreandvds.com the DTS track rocks really it sounds exactly as the way i heard it in DTS in the cinema sounds great over dolby . the disc packing is bad as the case is pretty flimsy but the disc is held properly .video is good . i double dipped on this...
