    Pro speakers in home theater.

    I'm sorry, I don't know what this means. So I would guess no.

    Pro speakers in home theater.

    The CBT 70J-1 is 21 lbs. The extension bass modules are 18 lbs. The different mounting options are somewhere in the 5 lbs area. So 44 lbs or so with the extension. The extension isn't necessary if you are using subwoofers. With movies subwoofers are required even with the extension. These...

    Pro speakers in home theater.

    I have 5 now. I will get more as budget allows. Or if I can find some great deals. This means that I will have lots of Klipsch speakers for sale. 2x RF7vIII 2x rf5 1x rc7 6x rs7.

    Pro speakers in home theater.

    Yes. I mostly did this in the beginning because I found a good deal on a used Seymour XD screen. My Klipsch speakers definitely wouldn't fit behind the screen. These fit after moving the screen forward 9-10 inches. This also made me move the projector back a few feet. I ran out of zoom with...

    Pro speakers in home theater.

    I just wanted to put this out there. A friend of mine on another forum convinced me to try the JBL CBT70J-1 for my front 3 speakers. I replaced Klipsch RF7 v 3. I really liked the Klipsch. They moved to surround duty. I really like these new JBL speakers. Since they are professional...

    JBL CBT70J-1 parts wanted

    I recently changed the front Stage of my theater from an all Klipsch setup to the JBL CBT70J-1. These are fantastic speakers. This led me to wanting to change more of my speakers out. I ordered 2 from eBay and 1 got damaged in shipping. I was able to order the replacement speaker from JBL...

    Logitech dropping support for the older Harmony remotes

    Mine is still working at this point. I haven't read any reviews of other products that can be a direct replacement. Any suggestions for when this happens?

    Old Stereo Review Article from 1996

    Great system. I hadn't gotten into home audio yet. I wonder if we met on the car audio competition circuit? I was still in high school in 1996, but competed regionally. Did you do the competition stuff?

    Ascendo Crafted Its AIA2-10K2 IS Amplifier to Deliver Superior Home Theater Bass

    My guess is that RAM Audio is building this or it's a clone of 1 of their 10k amplifiers. They have several different models available in this and other power levels. I've personally had the 20k on my list.

    ASCENDO Introduces New Ultra-Low-Noise DSP Amplifier for Ultra-Quiet Home Theater Spaces

    It's not worth the time it takes to get that information for me. I wouldn't be able to afford it anyway. I just like to have all the information for a dream system. You know, for when I win the lottery. I was also interested in this for subwoofer duty. I saw after reading this post that...

    ASCENDO Introduces New Ultra-Low-Noise DSP Amplifier for Ultra-Quiet Home Theater Spaces

    Seems great. But, how much? My clone amps are great for loud moves, but something like Quiet Place not so much.

    How many subwoofers are you using in your main system or home theater?

    I run 2 Sterio Integrity 24 inch subs up front far field, 2 Dayton Ultimax 15 inch subs as near field, 9 JBL 12 inch drivers in a Hovereze platform. The Hovereze is for tactical response. It operates down to 1 hz and I cross it over at 65 hz.

    All time favorite Movie Thread

    I can't pick 1. I would say Outlaw Josey Wales, or The Boondock Saints.

    Surround RT and Surround Back RT flipped. REW 5.31.3

    I just ran a full system measurement before changing out my processor. This way I could check for any problems before the change that I may have not been aware of. When doing the sweeps, I noticed the sound coming from surround RT, and surround back RT were flipped when using REW. I hadn't...

    Anyone here use an oscilloscope for HT amps?

    I have used an o-scope on the signal side to set gain structure, then check output side for distortion out of the amp. On the input side the load can be unplugged as not to damage anything. On the output side, if the load is connected, I would recommend short bursts. 3-5 seconds. If you are...
