    Home Theater Upgrade

    And on that note I just purchased the L100's.

    Home Theater Upgrade

    Well, it seems Polk may or may not be discontinuing the Legend series. Polk customer service says no, but some models on Crutchfield's site said "this item has been discontinued" when I tried to check the price plus tax and shipping. That has now been replaced with outlet items. When I asked the...

    Home Theater Upgrade

    They do, and I've done that for music. The best bass response is with inverted phase on the rear sub. I do that with the minidsp, but I can't on the Anthem. I suppose I could adjust the knob on the sub 180 degrees but then I'd have to redo everything for the minidsp. I'd rather not touch...

    Home Theater Upgrade

    As I've been going through this process and doing research, I found that the 2 subwoofer outputs on the MRX 540 are mirrored. That means there is no separate control in arc for phase, eq, etc.. everything is done as the subs are one unit. While this is how I eq my subs for music through my...

    Home Theater Upgrade

    I actually got the idea from a youtube channel called Kpaceguy. He skipped the F18's and went straight to a G25HP, then built a second one based off Rythmik's design. He didn't have any insulation and said he didn't have any problems with his neighbors. He was just respectful and considerate...

    Home Theater Upgrade

    Yes, I'm planning on adding the L900's for front atmos, R900's for rear atmos, upgrading my Boston Acoustics VRC to a L400, and adding L200's for side surrounds. Rear speakers are and will remain Polk Lsi 15's. I'm currently in the process of selling my L12 and upgrading to a second F18.

    Home Theater Upgrade

    Ok, about the F18...I didn't buy it (soon to be 2) for spl, I bought it based off of Mitchco's review. As my main focus is 2 channel I'm into phase alignment, step response, and creating FIR filters. To summarize, the impulse and step response of the F18's are nearly perfect. But yeah, saying I...

    Thanks, and I'm sure they do. Luckily we're all pretty respectful of one another so it's not an issue.

    Home Theater Upgrade

    I'm upgrading my home theater from a 5.1 to 7.2.4 and wanted to share my project and experience with everyone. I expect the process to take me until the end of the year. I live in an apartment, so what I can do is limited. My main interest is music and that will remain the focus. I never had an...

    Home Theater Upgrade Path

    Thanks, that makes sense. I could use the preouts on the 540 and use the amp. Honestly, I didn't even think of that. I'll definitely start a build-out thread but updates are going to go slowly. I'll start with a picture of my system as it is now. I'm beginning by upgrading my sub and adding a...

    Thanks, the NAD's I have are upgraded and refurbished by Peter Williams at quirkaudio.com. I highly recommend his work.

    All separates. Currently I have an MRX 540 and want to upgrade to an AVM 70.

    Home Theater Upgrade Path

    Over the next few months I want to upgrade my home theater system. I know what components I want, I'm just not sure where to start. I currently have a 5.2 system and will be upgrading to 7.2.4. I'll have to buy a processor, amp, surround speakers, and I want to replace my center speaker. I have...

    Subwoofer Placement Advice

    Thanks everyone. I was going to get a Rythmik F12 to pair with my L12 but then I saw Mitchco's review of the F18 and off I went. It should ship out on Friday and will be temporarily paired with the L12 until I get another F18 next month. I'm really looking forward to getting it.
