Hello, I thought I would share my accomplishment and confirm that it is correctly done. Subs are Dayton Ultimax 18-22 in a 4 cu/ft sealed cabinet X 2 Crown 1502 X 2 Prior to doing REW autoEQ, the amp was clipping on intense movie scenes. I had some boost as well as the Linkwitz Riley...

My Pioneer Elite AVR is coming up on 10 years and just thinking about possible replacements. I was first thinking about going with a separate processor as oppose to an AVR but not sure if it is worth the bang for the buck. I am interested in DIRAC room correction as well as 7.2.4. I have a...

I have dual um 18-22s in sealed cabinets with the crown 1502 hooked up to each sub. I have a Pioneer Elite AVR with a mini DSP placed in between the amps and the subs. My question is when I have my AVR set to loud volume such as -10 DB on the dial, on certain movies with heavy Bass the crown amp...

I wish I knew more about this stuff so I could trouble shoot on my own even further... but I don't. I am sending a 30Hz test tone VIA REW to my sub with an 80 crossover set in the Pioneer SC-27 AVR and the left channel is not playing anything (which is expected)... BUT THE RIGHT CHANNEL IS...

So I just noticed that channel 2 on the amp isn't doing anything. The green gain indicator light is on and measures the same as channel 1 Channel 1 in controlling the gain/volume of the bass only. I turn channel 1 down to zero and no bass comes out when I have channel 2 turned up. The driver...

My digital source is my computer which is currently connected to the AVR VIA optical cable. My question is what do I plug into the toslink as per the photo below from the minds manual?

I don't have a screen yet but I am just playing around with it and noticed 2 things: 1 - Is there a way that I can get the picture from reflecting off of the ceiling? Currently, there is a t.v. on the wall so maybe it's the glass on the plasma that is interfering? (Will the screen...

During dialogue, I am hearing static hissing on certain letter sounds... the letter 'S' for example. It doesn't do this with blu ray movies. Ideas? Anyone else experience this?

I am mounting a sub with 1/4" hole in the outside frame of the sub driver and I am also using 1/4" cap head screws with T nuts as fasteners... My question is do I drill the hole 1/4" and then drill the other side of the hole in the baffle a little wider to accept the t Nut width OR Do I...

They are the same price at best buy what do you think? the 2150 has a projector distance of 15M while the 3050 has a 5.23m distance lamp life on the 3050 is at 7000 hours give or take while the 2050 is at 3500 the 2150 is brighter but I don't game that much... The contrast on the 3150 is...

First off, big thanks to Loveinthehd, TLSGuy, Verdinut, and everettT (Never noticed the 3rd 'T,) who were the main dudes, or dudettes, who helped me get off me feet. For the noobs that have the same type of questions regarding the Dayon 18-22 cab build, take a look at the following thread. It...

Hello, I've done searches as suggested but can't seem to find an answer to my question. I would like to line the horizontal corner where the ceiling meets the wall (90 degrees) with panels as the ones in the pics on a 45 degree angle to eliminate the 90 degree corner. 1 - Wondering if this...

Not sure where to post this but I have the UMIK connected and the driver file loaded but I keep getting this message when checking levels. I click "don't allow" and this appears: I click ok and this appears: I don't know much about this yet but just want it to work.........

I am pondering on the little push out by the right channel nook area. I am questioning its musical affect on the sound reproduction. I would love remove that part of the push out so there is no nook but there is plumbing in the middle of it so it can't really be done. I originally want to do it...

Hello - I've searched but couldn't seem to find a solid answer. What should I stuff my sealed 18 inch passive cabinet with and how much material should I use? Stuff it tight? Just line it with an inch of material? Thanks for your input. A

It is currently 6 feet tall and 2 feet wide. Thinking of making them 4 feet tall instead and adding angled horizontal panels along the ceiling all the way around. However, I am thinking that the 2 foot width for the corner/ edge panels is too wide.. Maybe 1.5 feet would be better astetically ...

Hello - I just moved into my house and would like some input on how to read the 2 graphs that I just made. I understand what peaks and troughs (SP) are but not sure how to read them... meaning what is a big dip and what is nothing to worry about... what looks good and what does not.... Below...

Just wondering... I know the Dual JTR Captivator 1400s ($4400 USD) are a larger and better sub but I am just wondering if it is that much better than dual HSU VTF15H MK2s. ($1749 USD) ???? That's a $2600 difference..... Plus I live in Canada so I'll be taking a hit. Room = 13 feet wide X 35...

Is this a good idea? I don't have parallel walls and the room is large 14 X 30 or so. Plus.... I have concrete behind the drywall on the t.v. side. I bought some acoustic fabric today... 10 meters worth.

Hello - I am looking to get 2 JTR Captivators and wondering about placement. I am wondering if placing the sub a couple of inches from the back wall would be a problem? I will do the crawl and I am aware that the bass would be weaker if they are pulled away from the corner but it would look...
