@macaronigamez743 2 месяца назад

why?

@someone-mn8or 5 месяцев назад

All the reviews of those xreal devices I've seen tell me it looks more like a desktop computer monitor than a giant cinema screen. And if it WAS as huge as claimed, I'd want more than 1080p

@ramsaybolton9151 5 месяцев назад

I have them. It's about perspective. If you look at a wall 1 foot away they look like a small monitor. If you look 12 ft away they look like a 200" screen. I also have an actual 100" UST projector screen and if I'm about 8 feet away it will overlap it. It's actually quite sharp because the small screen means the PPI is quite high.

@someone-mn8or 5 месяцев назад

@@ramsaybolton9151 One of my reasons for originally being interested in them was so I could have a larger screen to work on than my laptop screen + existing small external monitor. Does it feel like a large screen when you're working on it, or only for consuming content? And I don't have a readily accessible wall 12 feet away, because I only have a small room. The reviews I watch claim that there's a physical light blocker on the cheaper models, and the expensive models have electronic dimming. Does blocking them that way achieve a similar effect to having a wall 12 feet away?

@zodiacfml 5 месяцев назад

yeah. I watched plenty reviews since the first version and found that its output matches a 14-17 inch monitor on a desk. I think Xreal can't make it wider FOV due to 1080p res and larger lenses.

@aaronb1138 5 месяцев назад

It's sad if RealAndy is not spitting sarcasm. The DIY Perks are among the worst DIY speakers (just a money and time pit for mediocre results) on YT alongside Zac's various ones. Those sound deadening panels don't remotely work the way claimed. They absorb poorly for a given volume (the manufacturers tout STC per weight) and not evenly across frequencies. The whole deadened waveguide would still not work even if the panels were better acoustic material like mineral wool or Owens 703. It's bad geometry.

@marcdraco2189 5 месяцев назад

@@aaronb1138 Have you heard them? (I haven't) but why is it woodwork specialist think they can make a speaker just based on volume and an off-the-peg crossover? Crossovers have to be matched to every speaking the system. Active crossovers are better but not ideal unless designed to go with the drivers. Square boxes are always going to be shit no matter what you stuff in them due to the reflections from the different distances from the rear to the reflective surface. A spherical baffle box is much more accurate - no corners. And that looks more like "simulated" Atmos. I don't even want to dig into the psychoacoustics of height and width information. I noticed a difference in digital headphone HRTF when I switched from a game tuned headset to some Beyerdynamics.

@mackeralface 5 месяцев назад

You have a cat as floofy as that, and you don’t give it more screen time? I need it.

@zKaltern 5 месяцев назад

I REALLY hate the way these glasses are being marketed. You DON'T want a screen that moves with your head. It means that the only way you can see the corners of the screen is purely by moving your eyes - and that's pretty tiring. The ultimate system would be something like a BigScreen Beyond - but with 4k HDR visuals, and as wide an FOV as possible. Also, I don't understand the speakers - surely you'd want to hide the gap at the back with some sort of cover that blends in with the existing design? And, being really picky, I don't see much point of even using a tweeter for Atmos positional sound - I can't imagine it would have the power to throw sound that far - a single cone would have been sufficient.

@ramsaybolton9151 5 месяцев назад

I have the xreals and also have used the Q2 and Q3...I would rather wear the xreals hands down. I don't want to strap in. You can change the opacity of the screen so you can watch a show while working or doing chores.

@TheQuinn50 4 месяца назад

@@zKaltern its possible to lock the screen in place but you will need to use their jank beam device inbetween your input and the glasses. I have a pair but ended up not using them much due to the software limitations basically requiring you to have an iphone / flagship samsung or mac to get the most out of the glasses. I have a pixel 7 and plan to upgrade to a 9 when they come out and nebula doesn't support it, the only device that works out of the box for me is my steam deck which is clunky af if you just want to watch a movie. To actually view your screen off a pixel you need the get a jank usb-c coverter and display link stuff that defeats the purpose of the glasses.

@Nobe_Oddy 5 месяцев назад

You should try playing a particular spot in the game where you feel the height is quiet prevalent and the Atmos is doing exactly what you expect.... even play it a couple of times so you know what to "look" for/"listen" for ... THEN disconnect the height speakers ... right at the back of the speaker - NOT disabling them in software.... then play that same part of the game again and see if there is a noticeable difference... This, I feel, is the ONLY WAY to TRULY know how much the reflection off the ceiling is actually doing what you think (it isn't by the way LOL - there is VERY LITTLE actually reflecting.... it's (mostly) all coming from the speakers and them being at an angle and you just perceiving that as being 'above' the typical sound plane.... putting speakers ABOVE YOU is best way to get them to come from above... (or using beam forming speaker tech and a reflective surface like metal and using PRECISE aiming.. but that is a whole other can of worms LOL) BUT like you said, Dolby Atmos isn't about the Height channel coming from ABOVE you but creating height to the things in front of you :) - I am still VERY IMPRESSED with you setup!!!! Those speakers looks AMAZING and I would LOVE to be able to build that same type of setup my self!! I'm a bit jealous bro!!!! But I'll be fine with my 7.2 and PC games in 4K :D

@15:26 noticed you setup the speakers as front heights. This could be why when watching movies you are not getting the complete atmos overhead sounds. Id be curious to know if you feel if they sound different by recalibrating using the speakers as Dolby SP for up firing front speakers. There should be a specific Dolby option for up firing front speakers during the speaker setup for Denon Receivers.

@honesty_music 5 месяцев назад

I would believe if you changed your speaker tilt towards you that you would get more of an overhead sound. For getting a specific directional sound (or more than you got) we'll take a page out of live sound and use square speakers instead of round ones. If you use these and middle the speakers in the cabinet (both tweeter and mid/sub), having the lip that you used with the wood and the added foam will help make the direction of the sound more controllable. If you want to go crazy, if you add more lip and calculate the angles, you can nearly redirect all sound in 1 direction. Kind of like using a parabolic dish, but square. A lot of live sound speakers have the square siren shape where the speakers project because it focuses sound in one direction than in a cone shape like typical speaker cabinets. This is just what I remember from my live sound class in school, tech has probably changed and I could be so wrong :P

There are many reasons to see a film in a theater no matter how good your home theater is from a technical perspective. Primarily, it’s a dedicated environment to experience the film that shuts out distractions and allows you to focus on the story. In addition, there is power in the communal experience, especially for big tent pole films. While this can be a double edged sword, there is value to having the same experience alone together with a room full of strangers.

@jonathanpalmer155 5 месяцев назад

Can I suggest an improvement to the cabinets. First, fix half inch bracing down the centre line of each panel to make them more rigid. Then pour Plaster of Paris in either side, each time with the cabinet on a slope, so as to create an asymmetrical layer at least half an inch thick in each section. But, importantly, poured in so that no inner surfaces are parallel. Then add those acoustic panels on top of the drying Plaster of Paris. You will now have dense, weighty and sound absorbent cabinets.

So as far as HRTF, you would have got a much better experience if you add opted to use the PlayStation video game HRTF engine, Tempest 3D, it's a real-time multi-positional sound engine, unlike Atmos, which is just a sample encode/decoder, no different to DTS or DD, in fact, DTS Master and Dolby TrueHD Audio completely spanks Atmos, but yes, Tempest 3D is the first true hardware level HRTF we have has since EAX and A3D before that.

And a lot of my friends couldn't tell the difference between dollar store headphones and Beats. All that to say, you mileage may vary, so use the materials you think will sound best to your ears based off of your experiences.

All you need is a good Subwoofer. You mainly feel bass, not hear it. I have a Kicker 12" Q L7 for my bass in my home audio system.

Audio exciters/transducers are incredible, HT ones should be installed in your sofa cavity, I even have one in my Steam Deck for the most incredible real-time haptic feedback, I can adjust the frequency to get different response types, I have a profile for FPS games that literally feels like real gun recoil, a shotgun can have a serious kick just like real life lol, it's amazing to have, I recommend people install one in all their gamepads too. Edit> I'm actually building a laser pointed light gun with multi axis with several 2 inch bass inducers, it will have so much kickback it should be amazing when finished, I want to use it with the video game "Bodycam", should be a lot of fun.

@@gemininimeg Subs don't go subsonic which is where the real feel it. If you can hear below 20 Hz you're superhuman, but while we can feel frequencies well above that, we can't hear below. But some audio will have it encoded (or it can be electronically created).

Couldn't you have just built the directional speakers into the cabinet of the existing speakers you have. The cabinets would have been much smaller and looked a lot less awkward

Wow a sponsor that doesn't try to make me feel bad about my hair loss or the dangers of the internet without VPN. XREAL give this man more money, first AD I didn't skip. I'd love to hear a before and after with the "Dynamat" not sure I've seen that before, but I like the idea. Really fun build, thanks for sharing!

Where can you get custom PCBs made for under $2 each, as you mentioned at the end here? (Did you include a link for that anywhere?)(Because you never mentioned the name of the place you found that makes them.)

For you next video can you make the ps5 smaller, and also make it a better (more efficient) shape

@mantrachhaya6835 5 месяцев назад

in DUNE, they're ornithopters, not helicopters; they flap wings instead of spinning.

I like some of the stuff zac makes but his titles are too clickbait-y

@michael-4k4000 3 месяца назад

Yea, no one is going to do this. He's just trying to sell those glasses, and they have a poor collective score on Amazon

@MetalMan1245 3 месяца назад

I don't disagree, unfortunately click bait is, well, qhat people click on. And if you're making money on RU-vid and more clicks is more money it's hard to justify not doing it, as much as I also really hate that trend.

Toy clearly didn't get it at all, the most important thing of the cinemas is the HUGE screen, for sound surround there are plenty of already made solutions that are great, you're reinventing the wheel unnecesarily here.

cool build, however, to get the most out of it, height-channel speakers should be in-celling mounted, the up firing ones will give you some effect but nowhere near celling mounted ones.
