Description
JBL control 12SR fitted with JBL 2206 bass drivers for more handling power and slightly better over the JBL G-125. JBL 2371 HF horns. What you see is a five screen or 70mm Todd-AO SDDS 8. It uses two Dolby SDU4 decoders wired to the main AVR LCR and when the decoders are activated a nice spread of sound from dialogue panning smoothly moves across or may appear on one of the five channels. Sound effects smoothly move over the fronts and music sounds far wider. This not to be confused with front-wide.
x117 JBL speakers and 20kw THX sound system.
(Star Trek II R2 DVD)
120" acoustically transparent fixed screen with Viewsonic 727 4k DLP pixel shift projector (Top Gun R1 DVD)
There is still plenty of room for more JBL
JBL 8330 mkII that came from Twickenham film studios dubbing theatre in good condition. Sidewall arrays, rear wall and centre middle back.
JBL control 5 on the ceiling x6 Height 1 Height 2 Height 3
Room is treated throughout and still some more tiles to be fitted.
Irwin rocker seats x6
Video projection port window at back of the room to isolate projector fan noise even when its on silent I can't really hear it just the movie soundtrack.
Note: behind laying against the wall a simple bit of cardboard with acoustical tiles glued to it so I can place above the AVR to keep some of the sound from going into the corner works fairly well.
Main systems AVR and cinema processors
Denon AVC-X8500H Dolby Atmos, auro3D, dtsX
Dolby Stereo CP200 with NR, A and SR cards one of the best cinema processors made and still in use at selected 70mm cinemas today. I have the Dolby CP200 Accessory Unit as well and Dolby MPU1 with Dolby SRA5 Spectral Recording x8
Dolby CP500 and Sony SDDS DFP-D3000 the best SDDS processor as it has two AUX inputs and few other features as well.
Dolby CP45 decoders used for pre-amp and extra matrix channels
Dolby SDU4 for the five screen decoding
Dolby CP65
Dolby CP55
Dolby SA10 EX
Dolby EX DU4
Dolby PS1B x3
dts CAD-5
All players are placed on the other rack DVD HD-DVD bluray and UHD 4k
Behringer DCX2496 x3 for the five screen channels and subs
The Dolby Stereo CP200 the finest 70mm cinema processor made. Selected cinemas still use these today as regular 70mm is still a huge interest to fans. Dolby PS1B power supply needed new DC capacitors fitted and some smaller capacitors from recommendations by Dolby labs to make the processor great again. The CP200 was released around March 1980 so its nearly 40 years old.
Two other rack towers house the 20kw of amplifiers. Other rack is going to be for the Laserdisc players or maybe the other player as I can hear the spindle motors when the room is quiet at 30dbA or less.
Lucasfilm Ltd THX Sound System, crossover/monitor 3417 with all the THX cinema crossover cards intact
BELOW SURROUND or Underneath Surround underneath the Irwin rocker seats is a matrix decoding of one or many of the sidewall surrounds. Basically it takes the sound of some panned off screen or onscreen sounds that often where you see a visual object moving at a downward angle offscreen often sounding on the sidewall surround arrays visually doesn't match the angle. Now that I had been using this for some years now and the idea first came to mind around 1998. There's up to x12 JBL control 1, for the Below Surround to be fitted in.
Bass seat shakers x6
My cat Magic laying on the floor in front of my Dolby Stereo CP200 ready for soon install but had to have some few soldering modification/minor repairs done before installing.
My first cat Sooty prowling around the home.
Behringer ECM8000 for checking speakers frequency response ether up close to the speakers or multiplexing the microphones around the room with a multi channel audio mixer with lots of inputs Berhinger RX1202 or sometimes often use a smaller Behringer XENYX1202.
