    Auro-3D to Demonstrate AURO-CX at CES 2024, a "Powerful Technology"

    FargateOne, if you live in the US, whenever you use any type Auro you'll be using an upmixer as Auro isn't used by US based movie, TV, or recording studios (at least that I know of). Whenever upmixing, it doesn't mean it only upmixes to 7.3.6. It can upmix into numerous different combinations...

    I sure hope it takes hold here in the U.S. Sounds like a great technology.

    Custom Cables

    Good to know. Thanks. For custom cables I've been going through Blue Jeans Cable. They carry good name brand stuff like Canare and Belden. They don't have as large of a selection as some other places, but their turn-around time on custom stuff is very fast. Got my last order in just 3 business days.

    Dirac Live Bass Control Becomes Available for Denon and Marantz Receivers

    It may be competitively priced, but that means they're all overpriced. I'd be willing to bet they'd make more profit if they cut the price in half because they'd sell more than twice as many. Too bad we'll never find out.

    Dirac Live Bass Control Becomes Available for Denon and Marantz Receivers

    The ad says 30% off the bass control. Are they taking 30% off of everything? Even if they are, $550 is still too much as far as I'm concerned.

    Dirac Live Bass Control Becomes Available for Denon and Marantz Receivers

    Totally agree. It's great that it's an option, and glad we're not forced to pay for it in a higher purchase price. Although I'm not impressed with Audyssey, it's better than nothing.

    Dirac Live Bass Control Becomes Available for Denon and Marantz Receivers

    Thanks for the update Todd. I hate to be a party poop here, but Diracs' pricing isn’t within reason. I’ve already spent thousands buying my AV10 (haven't finished hooking it up yet), and now Dirac wants me to spend another $800 to cover the full spectrum and the subs?! Like Al would say on Tool...

    I can certainly understand that. I have relatives who feel the same way.

    I got lucky and won one! It's an oldie, but I sure can't complain about the price! Looking forward to learning how to use REW.

    TCL QM8 98 inch monster TV

    For me personally, I'll take better picture quality over size any day of the week. That's why I went with a flat panel over a projector when I built my theater. At the time, 100" flat panels weren't available so I went with an 85". I haven't gotten that much use out of it yet otherwise I'd be...

    Home Theater News Review: HTNR 11.20.23

    A home theater news cast! Love it! I'll be looking forward to each one. Question - New to the Atmos world so I'd like to get copies of the Blu-Ray movies you talked about. Is there a waiting list that I can get on? Or do I just have to wait for them to show up on Amazon?

    Newbie questions

    Not really. I was all set to pull the trigger on a new laptop when I found out my employer was going to be having a drawing for some really old laptops that they've replaced. The drawing is this coming Thursday, and even if I need to buy an OS it'll still be way cheaper than a new laptop...

    Thanks. I've never been an Apple/Mac or Linux user so I'll probably stick with something running Windows. I was hoping it would run on a tablet. Oh well.
