People make mistakes, it’s part of being human and pronouncing something wrong is no big deal. The type of people who will not only call you out for those types of mistakes are the type that for whatever reason get a kick or rise out of making people feel less or inferior and chances are that they are jealous of the opportunity you sir have been given so pay no attention to those types of people and keep bringing us content.

Hey Chris. Pay no attention to the haters . You stand out in the audio community because you're genuine that's extremely rare these days and anyone who can't comprehend that trait in people. Well I feel sorry for those people. Another great video as usual 👍

Very happy with our Emotiva RMC-1L. Simply sounds awesome. Few small bugs, but last firmware ironed out most. The upgraded Emotiva Plus processors look very promising as well. Prefer the look of the Emotiva processors, but that's all subjective. Thanks for your great videos, you are doing great. Keep them coming.

If you want to have some fun with Auro while you have it you should use their up-mixer. It's a lot of fun with 2-channel music. Some people like it for movies too, but I never messed around with that. That alone made listening to music in the theater room a thing for me.

Chris, don't mind those people who take pleasure in just criticizing, as if that makes them smart, but don't realize they're just being ignorant. I remember a guy who came to question me about a compliment I made about his new acquisition... Can you believe that?! 🤣 I simply ignored it. I love your videos and I'm very happy for your achievements! 😃 Always recommended to my friends. 😉 Big hug! 🤗

It bother me for mispronouncing Auro 3D, no one died. I just think the complainers enjoy trying to people feel bad. You can call it whatever you want, I'll still watch your channel. I purposely call Emotiva, E-motive-ah not Emo teev-ah because I like how it better, not to mention that's how I thought is was pronounced before I heard it spoken. In any case, man no harm no foul. Wacthing your AV journey is fun, thanks for sharing.

When I was 15 riding with my friend and his dad driving, I said " They sure have a lot of gators in Pennsylvania and they always seem to be affecting traffic on the highway. His dad almost crashed the car and said " Boy what the hell have you been smoking? There are no gators anywhere in Pennsylvania or up North" . It was a gaper delay. People staring at accidents on the opposite side of the highway causing traffic delays. 😂😅

Nice video Since you are testing with arcam av41 and AVR 31 I have some questions for you While you are experiencing auro 3d what about the speaker layout or placement of (height chanel) it's totally different from atmos, especially about angles if you can explain little about this subject will be helpful. Regarding calibration how many preset is added on dirac live thease calibration file which you are using for testing is it streaming based or blueray based whether you subwoofers are calibrated through DLBC or not Another doubt is since you are having 2 subwoofer how it connect with arcam, thease units have independent subwoofer output or parallel connection in internal circuit side. Finally how both units sounds in the 2-chanel steereo listening with out subwoofer If you can discuss thease topics on your upcoming videos will be very helpful for people those who are looking for 2ch & hometheature combo setup. because thease units are not cheap. Sorry for the long message but it's quite interesting to know about thease topics Very interesting question is if you don't mind could you please tell us what is your room reverb/decay time (RT60) maintaining since your room is aquestically treated.

Hey Chris, when I poked you yesterday about the Aurora 3D thing, it was not meant to be a harsh criticism. I did the same thing to Youthman a few years ago. He also called it Aurora (He's from Florida). My comment was all in fun. But I do believe Auro-3D was not meant for Southern folk to pronounce. 😂😂😂

Hey Chris, isn’t the AR41 a processor? No internal amps, no heat vents!

@myhometheater7029 10 ай бұрын

Yes. So is the xmc-2 but it has heat vents. I’m curious to see how it plays out.

@chriswelljack4910 10 ай бұрын

What internal power are you talking about .its a processor not a receiver and they dont need no heat sinks

PS: I have a video idea for you. Now I Rarely buy a new movie on release day as they’re too expensive for me and I know that if I wait a few months, they’ll drop in price. Especially if Black Friday week is only a few months away. I’ve noticed you talk about buying new movies on iTunes And then on 4K. Now I have no idea how much it costs for an iTunes movie but I’m guessing it might be $10-20 (? 🤷‍♂️🤔), & then if you or anyone buys it a few weeks or days later on release day, that’s a other $25 or so roughly. Personally, I can’t afford to do that and if I miss a certain movie in the theater, I’ll watch many reviews on it, and then do the same when it comes out on 4K (or Blu-ray before they had 4K), so I can get a good idea of the movie is good, and then if it has a good or great PQ & AQ quality before I decide to buy it. Anyway, I thought that might be a good idea for one of your videos. 🤷‍♂️😎🎥 🎞️
