... - finish.06 - 2011-02-22 O no!!! We gotta keep this threat hot! This is my favorite thread!! I get lots of ideas and wow, pictures are just so great (worth 1000 words... remember?) I can stare @ all the photos for hours when I should be productive, and I really love the break! So please, everyone, keep posting amazing pictures!!! I will post some too, promise, but I am not near my home in IL @ the moment... Thanks! - Krazypoloc - 2011-02-22 I will have to take some pictures when I get home.....just got moved into the new place and all setup now. Here are some pics of the old house and old theater. Those are all before I went BACK to XBMC and had Popcorn Hour Devices running YAMJ. The new setup is much sexier! - prophetizer - 2011-02-22 Krazypoloc Wrote:I will have to take some pictures when I get home.....just got moved into the new place and all setup now. OH MAN i'm so over popcorn hour and their buggy crap. i have an A-110 and a C-200, i hate them, never again - Krazypoloc - 2011-02-22 prophetizer Wrote:OH MAN i'm so over popcorn hour and their buggy crap. i have an A-110 and a C-200, i hate them, never again Yup I'm right there with ya buddy. I had my C-200 for a year and the motherboard failed and was replaced 3 times. Luckily enough for my I was able to get $175 for it right after it fell out of the warranty period. I have been a 200 series Beta tester for a while and they are just total crap. - prophetizer - 2011-02-22 i got mine in december, i was hesitant after all the MKV issues and whatnot with the A-110, but i figured they must of fixed that. well sure they fixed that but many other issues, i even put in a BDRom which i thought worked great, but u can't play disney movies, really? LOL. i'm done with them, XBMC is fantastic, and now that i can put it on an Apple TV 2 and have a central database, i mean it's a no brainer, much cheaper than PCH and much more reliable, customizable, and way cooler - Waveknight - 2011-02-24 Long time lurker, first time poster Currently running two XBMC set-ups, both on Xboxes until I can afford to swap them out with Revos or build myself a decent HTPC. Below is the one in my room, other is downstairs on the main TV. On the left speaker: Tenda Router in wireless bridge mode Xbox 360 Centre: LG 37" full HD LCD Soft-modded original Xbox running XBMC Denon DCD-560 CD-player Denon DRA-325R amp Celestion Ditton speakers Right speaker: Emprex "P2P Downloader" running as a cheap NAS (£8, deal of the century), with a 1TB WD USB hard drive attached On the extreme right is the cat5e cable disappearing through the wall to the other TV downstairs, also running off the NAS up here. - Superorb - 2011-02-24 ^^ Are those speakers both Right or both Left? That would drive me nuts! - Waveknight - 2011-02-24 I think quite a lot of Celestion sets are asymmetrical. I've got the cloth covers for them somewhere so that they'd look the same, but I prefer them off - Superorb - 2011-02-24 Waveknight Wrote:I think quite a lot of Celestion sets are asymmetrical.That's one way to lower production costs. - Thurbs - 2011-02-24 yes, The asymmetrical speakers would lead me to get a bad case of the crazies. Seriously how difficult would it be to flip the board that hold the speakers around 180 degrees? - prophetizer - 2011-02-24 Superorb Wrote:Actually, try putting the sub on the left side of the room, maybe with 6-12" from each wall in the corner (vary the distance to the walls to get the best sound). This worked for me. best thing to do is put the sub where u sit mostly, then crawl around the room until u find a spot where it sounds best, then put the sub there - thethirdnut - 2011-02-24 prophetizer Wrote:best thing to do is put the sub where u sit mostly, then crawl around the room until u find a spot where it sounds best, then put the sub there I know, but easier said than done with a 67 lb sub that is supposed to be balanced at 4 feet. There's also the practical part where I can't place it anywhere either; needs to be a practical spot. - TheDuffMan - 2011-02-24 prophetizer Wrote:best thing to do is put the sub where u sit mostly, then crawl around the room until u find a spot where it sounds best, then put the sub there +1, great suggestion, the good old "sub crawl". http://www.audioholics.com/tweaks/speaker-setup-guidelines/crawling-for-bass-subwoofer-placement - Superorb - 2011-02-24 prophetizer Wrote:best thing to do is put the sub where u sit mostly, then crawl around the room until u find a spot where it sounds best, then put the sub thereI've never heard about this, but it does make sense. So you just put the sub ON the couch? On a plank of wood or just plopped in regular sitting position? - thethirdnut - 2011-02-24 Yes. You put the sub in the primary listening position - same 4' height or so too if possible - and then crawl around baseboards of the room. Where you hear the best bass is where you then put the sub.
