DB's HT upgrade (1 Viewer)

[DarthBeavis]

My bud John is building custom speakers for me and should have them done it two weeks. Did a ghetto hookup of the new Onkyo 805 receiver (HDMI 1.3), the new SVS sub with dual 12"s, and one of the two Buttkicker LFES. The sub has a 900 Watt RMS Built-In BASH Amplifier http://www.svsound.com/products-sub-box-plus2.cfm. The Buttkicker LFE has a 1000 watt amp http://www.thebuttkicker.com/Home%20...0Products.html . I am going to attach 2x4s to the steel frame of the couches and attach the Buttkickers to the boards.

All the wiring will be in split loom if not in the wire channel or at least hidden once the main speakers are installed. The only issue thus far is the Wii output in being pass at 4:3 from the receiver to the TV via HDMI . . .everything else rawks. Absolutely NO HDMI/HDCP issues with any of my components which is amazing considering I needed two different switchers previously to get everything to play together.

Nice. Dual Buttkickers with that SVS will be awe-inspiring!

I love that you have Return of the Jedi on your tv. Every time I add or change a component to my audio setup I have to watch certain parts of Star Wars as my sort of benchmark test. My roommates always say "You're putting on Star Wars again?!" When you've watched and heard something for 30 years, well you know how it's supposed to be. Anyway, from the sound of your setup Star Wars will sound superlatively wonderful at your house.
