AMAZING 7.2.4 HOME THEATER TOUR 2023 - 4K Dolby Atmos 160" !! DUAL SUBWOOFERS | Epson 1006 | KEF THX 

I sure did. And people own cars that cost more than a house too...to each their own. That's why they make luxury items. People want them. Including me. and some of my clients. And we deliver...for every budget. This room is amazing.

@@TheaterAdvice_FCAV Oh yeah, I have zero issues with what people do when it comes to all that I was just shocked at how expensive it was but you get what you pay for with things like that. The room is amazing agreed 😃👍🏻

Really almost every system we do is different. This is a good blend of what the customer wanted and fit in the room. He loves it, it which is all that matters.

And in your house...you can. Beauty of choice

I appreciate it. It was a lot of work.

Thanks so much we appreciate it.

Thanks so much. Labor of love.

Thanks so much

Thanks so much Tony

It does! could be the lens. I'ts a nice size though

Thank you so much!!

Let us know if we can help. Glad you liked the room and video.

We appreciate it. We love it too.

We really do try to spend money the right way. Thanks

Thanks so much , we appreciate it.

Go for it!

I really appreciate it.

All behind the fabric. It's their version.

I agree. Usually dark colors does the opposite. It's a nice big space.

Amazing stuff. And yes you're right about the JVC clients. Just lack of real knowledge...just YT knowledge which most is wrong.....which is why im here.

Any time!

Thanks. Yes we believe that we put the money where it matters most in system design. Most go for the super expensive electronics that yield you a 10-15% bump in noticeable quality. I don't love the subs but might change them. Client is happy but I am super picky. Everting else mesh's really well. I am for sure a different designer and like it.

I do not like tactile’s. If you have the right amount of subwoofers, you don’t need it anyway. It’s distracting to me. And the window has a shade in it so it looks the same from outside. We put a false wall in front of it.

I use it a lot on big screens yes. It’s WAY WAY better than people think it is. People read specs and comment. I see the thing every day. Embarrasses most projectors. Triad is awesome. I sell them literally every day. I’ll do a video on them

@@TheaterAdvice_FCAV does people missing 4k uhd for 8.1 mega pixel to compare to 4k enhance of 4.6?

Stanton Magical Steel

Yes we can order them for you and they are custom. REach out to us. We can help

The subs are good to add nice mid bass in a solid wall. They do not replace real subs even if you add 10 of the IMO

It's a bar. Just no stools there yet and was constructed hand. Granite selection by me and installed by my stone subs.

@@TheaterAdvice_FCAVThanks. It looks great.

Nothing is wrong with it. It's a 7706 though. Full equipment list is in the description though. What I was saying is that people use the Marantz HDMI boards in their processors so I just used one here to cut cost there that I thought would have little effect. As opposed to using a $20K processor the client wouldn't know the difference in.

Room is 20 feet deep...front row is about 15 from the 160"

Those are probably about $1200 each framed and painted. Hard to say..room wasn't bid that way. Doors were $3500 leather tufted with Portals. More to it than that always...needed new doors etc.

Stanton Magical steel

Thx!

Hi. These are from Acoustic innovations. We sell also stars from Epixsky. They are about $65 per SQft so that can add up. Installed. They are also acoustic panels.

There is a reason. Dolby atmos at inception wants “direct firing speakers” even the true Dolby atmos theaters (I was in the first one ever with Dolby labs designers present watching the hobbit” even those have ALL the speakers aiming down. When something is over head it’s not aiming it’s sound at you. It’s right above. The point of atmos is atmospheric realism not audio perfection. They are supposed to aim down and have good dispersion. Hope that helps

I respect the fact you've been to the Dolby Labs and to part of what your saying but full on theaters and home theaters are in no way designed or intended to relay the "presentation" in the same way. Why does Dolby go to the trouble of giving exact specs ( angles and measurements to the inch ) for a "Home Theater" situation that is in no way even close to how a "commercial theater" is designed? Why do ( some ) movies get remixed specifically for the "home" environment? And there is a very wide range in quality of the Atmos and DTS:X mixes. Why do Focal and other companies who care about the correct "Home" environment sell angled speakers ( I know you know and sell the Focal 300 ICA6 ), and they aren't just for ceiling LCR, c'mon man!! You just know the customer will never know the difference and it's not worth the trouble for your techs to go through the time to do it to "specs" and I GET THAT 100%, that's a business decision. For people who want to eek out ( or geek out. lol ) every ounce of the capability and design of the expensive equipment they are paying for will be well rewarded to go to the trouble of doing it to Dolby specs. WELL REWARDED!!! Also, there is no "money seat " in an actual theater., so they don't worry about angles in such an enviorment. Now, I've never been in a well calibrated commercial "Dolby Theater", they all suck in different ways. Hopefully someone calibrated them correctly at some point but someone must jack with them. I'll come and have a listen to those Down firing speakers and see what it sounds like and HONESTLY compare it to what I hear in my room and will bow to your expertise and post for all to know it if I'm wrong. And let me confirm I absolutely LOVE the awesomeness of the rooms you create , it is an art and takes a great deal of planning and work, that's why you get the awards ( and the $$$$ ). Most definitely kudos to you, it is more than well deserved! @@TheaterAdvice_FCAV

www.dolby.com/about/support/guide/speaker-setup-guides/5.1.2-overhead-speaker-setup-guide/ Direct firing downward 30 degrees front of ear. This is for home theater not commercial. You can do what you want of course...if it sounds better to you to angle them toward seating by all means do it. I believe AV is more opinion than fact always. But ALL speakers direct firing is what they recommend and designed and recorded for. Got rid of Bipole dipole sides for the same reasons. Every document from Dolby labs is down firing. finding a speaker like KEF with super wide dispersion is best overall. Many others though that do that.

It's regular bar height 42 I think. ....Bar is about 5-6' from door. Room for stools and walking space.

Thanks, and very creative with the LED lighting. Do those ship as an LED tube or are those regular LED strips? What brand lights if you don’t mind me asking.

LED stips are sold and designed in literally hundreds of ways. these are custom. made "light boxes" with plexi and light stips behind it. But we do a lot of lighting. Comes flush mounted, channel, just strips, pucks etc. Any way you want.

Doors are just solid doors with the custom leather, nail heads and portal put on it

I'd say 7 feet or so...He is 12-13. You definitely do not see them.

No. But then again..it's a tech made for flat panels and should not be used IMO on any projector lower than 5000 lumens. Poeple just like specs and names on a spec sheet. It's not for projection. It's direct view tech with true black levels. but to each their own. I think it looks like garbage. And too much work to get it to look good when 4K SDR looks good on it's own.

Size doesn't matter...haha. But seriously. I can make magic in a small room. Wall to wall screens etc. Always a way.

Would have been a good option. Again as I described in the description, the client liked the KEF stem that’s in the show room in New Jersey so we did it for him. You should definitely put them in your room though.

I own an anthem. And it’s a pain on HDMI. I explain why I didn’t do that here

@@TheaterAdvice_FCAV never been a pain for me user error

Correct. Must be something I am doing that the Anthem goes to 720P all the time for no reason and I have to unplug it. ONly 25 years experience and 12 in the field installing award winning systems. probably me. ....lol. google it. Sure you'll find many HDMI handshake and network issues with Anthem. AND I OWN ONE RIGHT NOW in my own theater. Just didn't want to plague the client with it's quirkiness. Most don't even know when the receivers do that stuff...I do. But good comment. Very helpful.

​@@Samzep you got burned son

Hi. To give recommendations I'd need a ton more information. Budget is the most important. I'd need the size, shape, color etc. Seating arrangement. Id say likea. 15' by 20' space is a good room....something like that. But I design for any space. Thanks for watching

@@TheaterAdvice_FCAV thnks for the reply buddy..my budget would be around 20k to 25k us dollars to ur currency and in our currency it will be arnd 2million...so kindly suggest which brands and products are good on this range...

If you can do biz with us somehow email thorugh my site.

Custom made. Plexi with LED strips

so you pretty much notched a whole and covered with plexiglass with leds behind it?@@TheaterAdvice_FCAV

@@BennyThePhotographer Pretty much. That's the jist of it. Like a high end light box. They were custom fabricated in FL with the panels and sent for install along with ceiling and stars.

Oh if it's in the budget...it's 100% amazing. But the 1006 if you are buying from an authorized dealer will be and shouldbe $8000 or more with a lens. It does not come with one. But worth it. And please buy authorized. And you will get great contrast using a screen like that with 6000lm. Enjoy

@@TheaterAdvice_FCAV They are about 4800€ (from various authorized dealers) and another 650€ for the standard throw lens. So that's more like $6000 including taxes/VAT. The LS12000 can be had for 4.770€ at the moment.

@@twoknife Yeah I don't know the conversion but if it's form a dealer jump on it. GREAT projector. Beats anything under $15 grand IMO

​@HomeTheaterAdvice i disagree.. jvc np5 is better and cheaper. Contrast much better

How does it have contrast.....when projectors don't make black? quiz question. Could it be all embellished and made up? Spoiler alert...they all lie and make up numbers. Projectors don't make black so they can't really have true contrast ratio. But you keep reading those spec sheets. I'll keep telling the truth about obvious facts.

Screen is 16x9. If you see my other videos on it you'll know why. : )

I know that is your preference and the reasons, just wanted to verify that this one is. Thanks. That is a truly amazing room you created.

@@stephenphillips1660 Yeah prob hard to tell with the wide angle lens used to shoot. Good Question. With this screen his 2.35 picture is close to 150" anyway

To each their own. I'll take the source all day but we do either. I truly think the difference in pre amps is very small other than the mic systems...which I don't trust or use past my own ears and experience. I like the Trinnov...selling one now. But Not over good source material.

@@TheaterAdvice_FCAV agree to disagree. I hope to do business with you one day.

I do as well. And when that time comes you will get 100% what is perfect for you. Every system we do is different because every client is different. I appreciate you watching.

Bout 120k build and 90 equipment

It’s gray but we love it too. Black and white rooms or close to it is one of my favs

120 inches wide 18 inches deep

@@TheaterAdvice_FCAV Yes sir! Thank you! One more question! 1. How high is the Bar table?

We carry it and like it. Didn't put it in this room.

Looks the same as on....just off instead. Black fabric.

$30K is a great budget. We work well with that type of budget all the time. Thanks for your comment. Happy watching !

I'ts fine. If the client wanted to pay for more pointless sheetrock work he would have. Just saying

Wide angle lens. I'ts a 160" screen and the chairs are 13' back. Plenty large and immersive. So no it's not like a 55". everything we do is calculated and perfect.

DO NOT buy a curved screen. Curved screens are to fix an issue caused by an anamorphic lens called Pincusion effet. If you don't have one of those lenses you gain nothing from a curved screen. Flat screen. The slate of course is amazing. I can ship them to you as well as long as we do Bank Transfer. Correct it's a commercial projector...so what. Still better. 6000 lumens is better is why I use it. ESP on a huge screen. You're on the right path.

Hi it's 20x20

Sir room height

@@15.emanuelshaju24 The side fur down is 96". Taller on front wall to stars just a tad. Peak before install was about 13'

Sir does sony vpl 7000es have optical zoom option using that can we increase the image size from 150 to 180inch for a big screen experience in our home theater considering that it has a 3200lumens output . What is your opinion

It does have that option. But will need to be far away to hit that size.

Yes Parasound has not. I use their amps...I don't care about their processing. All they had to do is buy Marantz HDMI boards and wouldn't. their amp is still best bang for the buck out there. Good dispersement speakers don't need any front wides...even commercial theaters don't have that. But as long as they aren't too close I always say the more the marrier.

I mean in this case it's a black box on the floor and the weak link in here. No reason to show the ugly hole they are in. Nothing fancy looking abotu the subs used. I have a Ferrari and a Lambo too...I don't look at the engines ever...lol *shrug

I can go for any amp. I love Parasound...great value for high end amp. Both Epsons have the same pixels they just do the 4K Eshift differently. I don't notice it. Brightness wins. It's truly spectacular. Under 3000 lumens vs 6000 lumens is my explanation. For those that want their projector to look like a tv it wins. I own an LS12000...Love it too.

❤

Thanks I'll tell my editor I thought it sounded ok on my side

Sounded fine to me. O_o

Thanks I think so too but I want everyone to enjoy. Not sure why I've heard this twice...but only twice.

Uh...no. Even the most extreme sized home theaters almost never encroach what a commercial theater screen ratio is to seating in the middle seats. The bigger the better. If you have a home theater...put a theater in your home.

Plenty. It's Dallas.

The client wanted the KEF speakers that were at their experience center in NJ. So since it's not your money..and you didn't design the system...your opinion doesn't matter. It was an itemized bid with every aspect spelled out. It's an $80K system....that's what it costs. It's math..not an opinion. He wanted the aesthetic. He's also blissfully happy with the result. If he had more budget we could have gone harder on AV...pretty simple. and I don't care about those processors at all. You read too many blogs...lol. I live and breath this stuff. I know what's worth the money and what's not. So thanks for your opinion...I guess. lol

Sounds like you should totally sell systems and start a ch. You have it all figured out. I am sure your $1K system is awesome when I wouldn't even own a $1K center ch. 😂. Phew. The keyboard warriors are out today. lmao !!

Almost like IMAX? You're exposing yourself to great criticism. It's great that you love your system as that's what matters but if you experienced a system like this you'd know why people drop the cash. And people with the cash like playing with all the "decoration", it's part of the experience. I don't have all that stuff but I sure can appreciate it!!

No, I'm such a cheapskate, I would go bankrupt on the first day! But my movie party people do agree that they like my "home IMAX" better than the theatre experience. By the way, I root for you to win the competition, I think Home Projector theatre is way underrated these days, at ANY price. A projector is always better than a "big"screen TV.

We agree there. I actually personally sell more projectors in a year than any other company. I am Epsons top dealer. I am all about projection.
