    Final decisions on bill of materials

    Do I need to worry about too much power for a single breaker? I think I was reading another thread where the OP mentioned it. And if so, do I just add up the amperage of the various components that will be on a single breaker?

    Final decisions on bill of materials

    I'm reviewing them for HTF, and if they live up to the hype, I'll keep them. Otherwise, I have a pair of great subs that I'll bring into the room. But from what I've read, they actually shouldn't disappoint. From everything I know so far have been really positive. And if I can save sq ft, it'd...

    Final decisions on bill of materials

    I got around to doing some more precise measurements. If I stick with the SVS 3000 in-wall subwoofers, they have to fit between studs, which would ideally place them about 16" in from the side walls . Imagine them just outside of the front L&R speakers in this mockup: I'm concerned that, from...

    That's a great idea. I want to go with the Sony because it's sharper than the Epson, it's available thru Value Electronics, and it's cheaper than the JVC. But don't want a bum projector in 2 year. But with the 3 year warranty, this could protect me. Thanks!

    Final decisions on bill of materials

    No problem. But quick question to anyone else: How do you feel about the Sony STR-AZ5000ES vs Denon AVR-X6700H? It's a significant price jump. I found this comparison on B&H, and can't figure out if the additional features of the Denon are worth a 50% higher price.

    Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for clarifying.

    Final decisions on bill of materials

    That’s great advice. I’ll test them in both bipolar and dipole and see what sounds better. I could theoretically add some elevation speakers down the road for rear surrounds but I’m hoping to be satisfied with the ultra surrounds. But upgrading from 3.2, I imagine I’ll be happy.

    Hey hardware experts! You all have been really helpful so far on my 2v4 Atmos thread and I'm coming down to my final decisions on the buildout. So as @Sam Posten says, help me spend some money! What's Decided/ordered: Main Speakers: SVS Ultra Surround -7 speaker setup (the surrounds are both...
