Hi Youthman, great video! I too own the Klipsch RF-7 series iii and the matching center channel RC-64 series iii along with the Klipsch surrounds as well. I just wanted to say if your running Klipsch speakers you might want to consider running a Yamaha a pre & pro combination which would work well in your system. The thing about Klipsch and Yamaha and why they match well together is still a mystery to me. On a personal note: I'm using a Yamaha RX-3060 A/V receiver and it sounds amazing though the Klipsch speakers. I hope this helps.

@budgetaudiophile6048 4 жыл бұрын
I love this! I will say (and I'm just gonna type items in here as I go through your video) 1. Yes yes YES, dedicated rooms are the way to go. If you can dedicate, do it! Shared is okay but dedicated is the bees-knees and no it doesn't cost eleventy million dollars. Just take your time, build it slow and before you know it you'll have a KILLER dedicated room. 2. Duuuude, absolutely! Blacking out the ceiling (and in my case the front and side walls as well) is a visual GAME CHANGER. Nevermind the aesthetics of the room, going full blackout makes your projector screen into a window. You're no longer watching a movie on a screen, you're looking through a portal into a living scene. It's truly no-compromise. 3. YES YES YES! Match as many of the speakers as possible, if possible. I have matching LCR towers and I can't see why this took me so long. I built my 7 bed layer towers to all match and it's seamless integration when the voice or sound travels around. Identical speakers all the way around is optimal. Being able to have matching speakers on the ceiling would be ideal but that's definitely an engineering impossibility in a lot of cases. 4. I control my subs from my MiniDSP but they ARE all externally amplified so I can just switch off the amps to go down to a single sub or whatever. 5. I only disagree with you here that I don't go to the cinema at ALL unless it's a special occasion. Sometimes the first lady will want to go to the theater for new movies or her family will want to make it a thing. I can ALWAYS wait for movies to get on UHD or Blu-Ray. My theater sounds substantial and it's so much more intimate and controllable.

I know this is probably a dumb question, but is the center speaker the only one that outputs the dialogue and the things happening on screen? I've just recently set up my dad's old 5.1 system and every speaker does output sound and i do hear things in the surrounds and stuff like im supposed to, but most of the sound does come directly from the center, whereas i thought the center, front left and right all work together to produce the dialogue and things happening on screen. So i was just asking just incase i have it set up wrong or not.
@Youthman 4 жыл бұрын
Most dialogue will come from center unless someone is standing to the side of the screen, then you will hear them from that speaker. The goal of each speaker is to reproduce sound from where it is supposed to be coming from in the movie

You honestly have one of the best home theaters on KZfaq. It is not even my style, I prefer a more modern look with dark walls, ceiling stars, and a grey color screen, but I can recognize it is great. What I like about it is how the speakers are hidden, the fact that your screen goes wall to wall (I really hate those setups where the screen is in the middle, and the speakers are visible on the sides, it looks tacky, and makes their screens look small no matter how big they are), I also love your seating, and that wooden cabinet is not my style (I like a modern look more), but it looks luxurious, and that's cool. I also imagine your sound is pretty cool. I would prefer not having windows, or glass doors, but those curtains you have are a good choice because they are plain (I hate the other curtains some people use with flowers and leaves, they look like old lady's) these ones you have are nice.

I’m thinking about building a separate little room for my own equipment, complete with a telco rack, and just keep the Harmony Elite, Xbox controllers, the TV, and the speakers in the main room. Rear access to the connectors has always been important to me, despite not going back there anywhere near as often as you do. :)

I built my theater in late 2015. I had a budget that was on the low end compared to many others. I have a Onkyo 636, reused subwoofer from a HTIB, $350 silver ticket 16:9 135” screen, elac debut 1.0 B6, C5 center and towers. I have atmos bouncy house speakers. The projector is a JVC RS400. I am very happy 4 years later. I have other hobbies and financial responsibilities that precludes me from being on the constant upgrade cycle. Eventually I will upgrade my AVR to one that passes HDR. I just have a hard time replacing stuff that is not broken.

Just redid my 7.1 with in-wall surrounds. Had to use one free standing for side surround. Prewired for 4 atmos in-ceiling when I can afford 11 channel receiver. I used monopoles. It's nice, a little localizeable, smallish sweet spot, should have a second sub. I'm wondering about adding wide fronts, but they seem to be last on the list by most accounts.

Ok, I want to go 7.1.2 or 7.1.4. This is my problem. The only good spots I have are at ear level (above my Sourrond speaker) and behind me (above my back surrounds). Should I just do the 2 or the 4? Is the panning from front to back and back to front in the ceiling that important? Thanks. Love your vids man.

Simple question: Bluetooth connection can pass through Dolby ATMOS or the only connection is the HDMI cable connection? I know that Bluetooth just support stereo sound but the BestBuy technicians hooked up my friend’s LG TV that supports ATMOS to his YAMAHA receiver that decodes ATMOS using the Bluetooth connection between both. I don’t believe that technician knows the difference between stereo, Dolby Surround, DTSX or Dolby ATMOS.

When you calibrate with Audyssey, it level matches each speaker so they all play at the same volume. It’s better to have more power than your speakers need than less power.

Awesome setup Youthman! I just installed the 4 height speakers to round out the 7.2.4 Dolby Atmos. Totally agree with you on the Logitech Harmony, smart lights (Hue) and voice control (Google Home) We are upper entry level with the Denon AVRx4500H + additional 2ch Unity 2x100w Amp all driving KEF UniQ bookshelf speakers and a pair of CerwinVega 10" subs. All setup in a relatively small living room. Sound is great, TV is ok with DX800 65" ...plan to upgrade to 65" or 77" OLED. Anyway it's been a fun project. Love to go the next level such as your Movie room. Really liked watching what you created in your home.

I appreciate the inspirational video. I'm very new to the game, and trying to learn what I can (which is why I follow this channel). I'm hoping to have a dedicated theater room when I move soon, as I don't currently have the space. I currently have a Klipsch 5.2 system (RP-280F's, 450C, 250S, etc.). I was thinking of maybe adding a couple 140SA's for height, then pick up another pair of 250S speakers when I have the room. I hadn't thought about using the same speaker for the front three channels, but it makes sense. I couldn't believe you had THREE La Scala speakers back there lol. What kind of subs are those? As far as screens are concerned, I like the idea of acoustic transparency. I also wouldn't settle for anything under 120 inches. Along with that, I will have to decide whether to go the ceiling mounted projector route, or the short throw variety. I haven't done a price comparison, but I'd bet the ceiling mount might be the cheaper route.

In the video, you talked about separates being a big upgrade, but I wondering, was it the processor or the amp? Going from an 8012 to a 7705 and the monolith made me wonder, what if you had just added the power to the 8012 (which has pre-outs), would you get similar results? Or is the processor in the 7705 just better than the one in the 8012? Any thoughts?
@Youthman 4 жыл бұрын
It was the processor. I have owned 3 amps over the years and have reviewed several others. It wasn’t until I went to a dedicated processor that I noticed a significant difference. I had previously added the Parasound 200x5 to the SR8012 and it didn’t make a huge difference.
@grnpony 4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the reply. I have a 6012 and added an emotiva xpa 3 for the front stage recently and thought it made a significant difference in not only the front stage but the other speakers as well. Was considering the outlaw 7000x for the other channels, but maybe I need to start in the preamp direction? I still need an amp for those channels anyway, but maybe the preamp needs to be on my to do list? Again, Thanks for the feed back.

My room isn’t dark enough. It’s not long enough. Acoustics COULD be better. My seating is just a sofa. I too, have two doors in and out of my room, and there at either side of my rear surrounds. Which makes it difficult, sorry, impossible to place one of my subwoofers at the rear like I want to do. Doors open onto them if so. Can’t flip my room around to avoid this because then my front stage is between the doors. Just to mention a few issues with mine. But boy, I love the way it sounds. I am genuinely in love with it. And I have to walk through it daily as it’s in the middle of the house, and I get to look at it and say, “ Yes baby, il see you at the weekend” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Fantastic video! I'm definitely going to be getting some ideas for my theater from your channel! Thanks! I need to look into the Lutron Caseta, light control is something I haven't sorted out yet. In my last theater I just had a couple dimmers in place of the original light switches. I'm just getting started on the new house where my next theater will be. I've been trying to figure out pre-wire for everything and was wondering about light control. I'm guessing this Lutron Caseta will just need power and it will be wireless communication with dimmers in place of the original light switches? Honestly I don't get particularly excited about lighting effects such as behind the screen or under the seats. For me, dimmer control of the main lights, some step lights for in the dark navigation and maybe some effects lights somewhere on the wall. Last time I had some acoustic panels mounted on the walls offset from the wall just enough to have a nice red LED glow coming from behind them. That's probably all I need for effects lighting. I will have a "control room" behind the theater back wall. The projector will be in the control room along with the AV processor, the surround, Atmos, aux sub-woofer amplifiers plus sources such as BluRay, media PC etc. LCR and two main sub-woofer amplifiers will be at the front below the screen. The control room can also house the Lutron Caseta bridge plus anything else I haven't thought of yet. (Suggestions welcome). One good thing, the theater will be surrounded by attic space above and on three sides and the control room on the fourth side. There will be access to get beneath the raised floor from the bottom of the control room. So it should be an easy matter to run lines for any future upgrades. Still, I would like to install pre-wire during construction for as many possibilities as I can imagine just to avoid having to deal with it in the future so all pre-wire suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks for posting such an informative video!
