ClamdestineBoyster posted:Klipsch just have a really cheap way of creating a 3D sound field. They just bottom out on standing waves. Alternatively you could get a cheap lovely amp and your rear surrounds would sound better. Ok I'm not any sort of expert but I do have some decent gear and I build my own cabinets. The two posts you've made don't make any sense. Yes those are all real terms you have used but they don't really relate to each other at all. And to add to this weird thread; In my theater room I'm running Klipsch Reference RF3 series powered by an onkyo 818, and 2 18" mach5's and 2 12" Shok audio with 2.2kw (sustainable) driving the subs. With just the 18's I had a flat response down to 10hz at 115db. Maybe even more but I broke some plumbing and ruined a kitchen so I don't play it that loud. I've since converted the ported 18's to sealed and added the twin sealed 12's. I'll also be moving the Klipsch stuff upstairs and building some diyaudio stuff for the theater room.

I'm running a tube 3RT-V with 2x 540 DXs and a jumbo X770. Sounds pretty good but I need a 20050π√ √¶ to round it out

Germstore posted:I also do not keep extra tvs down the hall to render far away objects, namaste. no, but if your tv screen had "surround information" that immersed you in a movie 360 degrees you are telling me that would be dumb because you would still only look forward. you have never heard a sound behind you? really?

sounds come from more than 5 directions though. 2 seems like a reasonable compromise.

i'm telling you. the sound design on movies like Saving Private Ryan are intense. you hear the bullets whizzing past and explosions with a decent sub will make your neck hair stand up. its really cool

5.1 or 7.1 surround sound for movies. Two big tower speakers and a sub for music. That's really all you need bruv.
