Home theater can be very fun!

I’m definitely jealous of these mega HT set ups. Good for them to have such a passion to take it from slab to fab.

My only solace is maybe someday I’ll be able to get my lounge room fully outfitted with surround sound.

Here is a very fun video with Youthman.

    And in three months you will start a thread about your all Trinnov/Focal 16.8.6 surround system being installed and tuned by God himself…🤣🤣🤣

    I say give it a whirl, Joey. Even the modest setups can be fun. No need to wait until you're ready to go uber.

    My starter true HT setup after ditching the God awful Pioneer HTIB setup was RT600i for my L&R, and a CSi3 at my center channel. Added a PSW10 but returned it because it sucked.

    Then it slowly evolved into my RT3000p, CS1000p setup and I'm yet to mount my RT35s for the surround channels to make it 7.2 (had 5.2 but the drywall anchors ripped out). Even just 3.2 is awesome and kicks some serious butt!
    My gear:
    • Onyko TX-NR656
    • RT3000p L&R
    • CS1000p Center
    • RT35 Side
    • RT35 Rear

    This forum would benefit from having a separate "Home Theater" category. The focus is quite different from two channel stereo in terms of speaker requirements and electronics.

    I support this motion! Would be really cool to have.

    I have always perceived the entire forum is for home theater, but separated into subcategories... That is why we have a dedicated 2 channel section

    Speakers, electronics, hook up and wiring, etc

    Otherwise you could effectively condense those subs into just multi channel

    That’s what I thought too
    I thought the whole place was essentially HT except the 2 channel subsection

    That post 👆 aptly illustrates why #humblebragging is a very good thing for the forum. 🤷‍♂️

    Do you honestly not see the difference in this and what was previously discussed?
