I just got a center speaker bracket from center stage and my center speaker is quite heavy like 5 kg, that bracket can hold it i am not worried about, however my tv stand on bottom of the tv no idea how much weight

My tv is a sony hx750 46 inch
it seems to stand fine for now, but its little wobbly but will remain still as long don't touch it.

Impossible to say from the picture. My cabinet had max weights listed, and I ended up reinforcing it w/ wood/glue/screws.
However, if your is already wobbly, I would be VERY hesitant to add more weight without reinforcement or replacement.

its little wobbly without speaker on it to, thinking of moving it slightly right and backwards so it leans a little on the wall.

edit: i just moved it slightly more back partialy against corner of the wall, distance from left speaker from left corner of screen 38cm 37cm distance from right speaker

center speaker is on tv but touching corner of window aka the wall.

Its just as wobbly without speaker on it as with, and its not extremely wobly just a little like any tv probably.
my ocd has calmed a little now.

That stand looks like it was built for a dlp television. Your flat panel tv is a fraction of the weight of a dlp. It sounds like you might need to tighten some screws in the stand. Or maybe it had one of those pain-in-the-butt 60-nail cardboard backs that you didn't bother to attach but is actually needed for the stand to remain stable, even though you wouldn't expect a cardboard back could offer any worthwhile structural purpose.

Great-looking setup, by the way. I bet it sounds great.

I think your TV is wobbly because the TV stand itself doesn't look very stable which is often the case. Almost all TVs will wobble a bit so I wouldn't be terribly concerned.

Joe I think it's a bassoon, and it's on the left:D
Thanks ahblaza Doh and I'm left handed go figure. The benefit of coming at something from a different side, and the price of being right.:D

That's either a tuba or a euphonium I think. It looks like a tuba. A bassoon is a woodwind. That's definitely not a bassoon.

Tuba, bassoon, euphonium, horn...at least I think that we can all agree with Jeff that it's on the left side of the picture. :D

To the OP - my bet is that the stand attached to the TV can take another eleven-ish pounds. I'm sure hoping that the designers accounted for the force of someone pushing down on the top of the TV (for whatever reason, like steadying themselves while standing up after installing cables in the back), and that would probably be over the weight of your center channel. As it seems that you've done, you'll want to get the balance correct and make sure the center of gravity of the TV/center channel isn't causing the stand to lean forward or back.

It actualy has 2 way''s i can put my tv that it sits like / or |
anyway its not extremely wobly at all, if moved it all the way to back now bit to the right, so its supported by the wall now it does't wobble at all anymore.

but moving my center speaker more back now setup does't sound as loud anymore and i can play movie easy at volume -14 thx again.

At my old place it looked like this, i had lot more bass to as i was always sitting near corner or near wall not ideal as far i heared.
Their like 20 feet open space behind my couch now, my place is very big.
Since i moved new place its like i hear a lot more sound then i used to, especialy mids



My new place room size is 20x33feet roughly 70 square meters
old place was 12x20 feet

I may make some good pics in future atm i'm not really done, their plans still to hide cables properly also, meanwhile though i have a 3D blu ray pacific rim at the start of the movie their a beat with some bass, this used be quite loud and boomie at my old place, now its not very loud and boomie anymore though i still hear it, is that cos of bass being stronger at walls or do i need place sub better ?

The bass is their when it should be their, for example transformers dark of the moon sound the same, and many movies still sound the same, while some movies seem to have more strong mids now.

http://youtu.be/1vU7XqToZso?t=41s the bass in their still hear but it sounded more wow before in old place.

Have you performed the subwoofer crawl with each of your subs, or did you just put them in the corners on a guess? What sort of DSP are you using for room correction on your subs? Have you dialed one of them to 90-degree phase to avoid cancellations?

No at first i had 1 more next to the other right tower in front, and no bass at that position at all, in corner i got bass their on right, now i just checked again and if no clue whats going on but i had bass in right corner now for some reason its as if their no bass i'm not sure yet i will do test later or tomorow probably their bass their.

Anyway its as if sometimes certain frequency range is missing, while rest are very good.

I tested to see if left corner placement oke and it seems better then the right corner, but i am not sure if i should put both same on top of each other.

Right now i can watch a movie have very good bass, aka most movies are still same as my old place sound wise, but my neighbours below me don't hear me at all, while 2 floors below me their some one who likes overdrive bass way to much and whole building can hear it from 3e floor to 0th floor, very ridicilous.

I think he has a z5500 logitech set boosted to maximum bass, i have one my self and i freaking hate the bass comming from my z5500 so i lowered it down like 2 level's from default.

If never boosted bass like +2 +4 +6 db bass, except for a little while at my old place my new top neighbours liked to play stuff way to loud they did\t wanna stop so i had to move.

Before i got new neighbours i always used +0 bass +0 treble and i did't increase the sub volume after auddyssey is done calibrating i just keep it all on default settings.

Right now if i do +2 +4 +6 dB bass it rather makes it worse sounding sometimes then better sounding so i just leave it their, as for subwoofer level if not tryit increasing it yet, i don't know if i should try that.

90 degree phase if not tryit yet how do you set the knob ? their on 0 right now.

I'm guessing i should try set my right sub to 90 degree, should it be to 90 degree even during audyssey setup ?

edit: put lfe to 120hz again instead of 80hz anything sounds way louder again, guess these jamo s606 can't perform as loud as i thought.

Well, first thing, if you haven't tried the subwoofer crawl, you should. After the subs are where they sound best, then try varying the phase dial on one of your subs to see what sounds better. Without a measurement mic, you might need a friend to help either with dialing or with listening. And yes, you can run Audyssey with the phase dial turned with no problems.

Does your receiver offer Audyssey Sub EQ HT?

It only does the towers, their no room correction for subs but i think they sound fine.

I think cos i had them much closer together and closer to listening seat low frequencies got boosted they where added to some parts of the audio due being close to wall and near subs, now i sit 20 feet from the walls behind me and subs are 20 feet away from each other low frequencies aren't being boosted as much anymore.

I can probably achieve the same effect again if i put 1 sub on the other sub, but i don't think its supose to sound like that so i won't.

Its like having tones go from low to high but you increase the bass you also increase the deepness of the tone making it sound less acurate.

Anyway doing bass crawl is hard, without a decent song, and i think bass response is little un even aka not as flat.

If i play the youtube movie i linked on my set i hear no bass, but on my pc i hear it, as if something wrong with receiver, while on the blu ray it self i hear it just fine.
I got a feeling i can't get it better then i already have, aka as if their a room issue or something.

This is the area behind the couch.
I know at old place middle of the home cinema aka if i tilted head even bit forward amount bass dropped a lot, while i sit back i hear lot bass.
Aka calling that null zone aka zone where their not much bass or no bass at all, usualy middle of the room.



Think i may need to move my couch a little bit more forward.

That room is a challenge for sure. Well, when you run out of ideas, post a new thread and we'll offer suggestions. Good bass isn't necessarily loud, and shouldn't overpower the mains. The response should sound pretty much flat, although sounding flat and measuring flat aren't at all the same thing. I agree that keeping the subs separated is better than stacking, as it sounds like you hear some bass notes obviously louder than others when stacking. Plus, keeping them separated can even out response in your room and enlarge the sweet spot once you get your system dialed in.

I guess as long i hear all notes at proper loudness all the time i should be satisfied, i actually hear more notes then i did at old place.
edit:

edit: i decided to put on headset and play this scene

The bass sounds same thru headset as thru my home cinema, its safe to asume the bass i heared was mostly boosted due subs being to close etc.
