Tour of the Rack Powering my 9.2.4 Home Theater 

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thank you for the kind words.

Thanks! And they sound amazing too, even before I've done any tuning. Yeah, the weight is why I suggest you get the 4 post shelves that are rated at 110lbs vs. the 2 post that I think are rated for 50lbs.

Thank you!

Thanks, I appreciate that.

Thank You!

Thanks! It sure is.

@@smarthomeMASTERY have you had a processor before it?

@@jadan2000 No, not separates. I've only had AVRs up to this point, so big upgrade for me.

@smart home MASTERY that's awesome.. what would you say has been the biggest difference in your audio experience with moving to separates?

Thanks! Yes, it is very quiet.

Thanks again. The fans are a little loud, so if your rack is near your seating, you will definitely be able to hear them.

@@smarthomeMASTERY by the way, I am using the greenwave to reduce the noise and the ups pure sine wave. The noise is like 15 Mlv.

Thank you! I appreciate that.

Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Thanks!

😁Thanks! It's a labor of love.

LOL... I know, that bothers me every time I walk up to the rack. I'll likely replace it when I put my other two subs in.

Thank you. I used the 4' version of these: amzn.to/3wN6CYd ...except without knockouts. I had access to a hydraulic knockout, so I was able to make my own exactly where I needed them. You can use a Unibit like this: amzn.to/3XMHCwc to make your own 1/2" or 3/4" holes, but the trough I linked above has knocks in it already. Take a look at the description in my video where I show how I made it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_ay9uRs-1EM.html It has links to the parts I used, including the track.

Thank you very much. The fans on the Behringer and AC Infinity are pretty loud. My seating is about 20 feet away and a little around the corner, so I really don't notice them unless it is completely silent. If your rack was out in the room near the seating, you would definitely notice. Yes, the Fire is currently the only input device that I have hooked up. I have an old PS3, but I don't really watch Blu-rays anymore. The Fire has a lot of streaming services on it. Disney has remastered a lot of their older movies with immersive sound, so they sound pretty amazing.

Thanks! I got them on Amazon. 1/2U Rack Blank: amzn.to/3Risg01 Just to warn you, they are expensive for what they are.

Thanks. The link is in the description.

lol... I may have missed that in this video, can't remember.... I have an Amazon Fire 4K Cube, with various streaming services.

I used these: Banana Jacks: amzn.to/3kRRdDw Rack Plate: amzn.to/4f2KePG Then you run banana cables from your amp to the banana jacks that go to your speakers. Hope that helps!

Thanks! Dirac isn't available for the AV10 yet. I think it is coming around March. I will definitely be using it, once it is available.

No, they each use their own probe and are setup independently. Both are intakes.

Thank you! A review will be coming for sure. I just wanted to get a little use under my belt first.

@@smarthomeMASTERY sounds good I’ll be looking forward to it. I just want to know how you managed to get wife approval for it?

@@dadevastator24_77 lol, she is very understanding 😀

Thank you very much! There are three different cable types running from the processor to the amp. The majority of them are XLR to XLR. The other type is RCA to RCA. Because I have two rows of surrounds, I needed to feed two different sets of amp channels from the one set of outputs. There was no way to map another set of surrounds in the processor, so I took advantage of the fact that there are RCA and XLR outputs for each channel and fed the second row of surrounds from the RCA outputs (hope that makes sense). The last cable type is also RCA to RCA. It's a thin cable for remote turn-on of the amp. All of the XLR cables are the same size. I didn't make any of those, I purchased them. I think I have a link to them in one of my video descriptions. I made the banana cables that go from the amp to my patch panel. The rack is from Middle Atlantic. I'm not sure how much a professional would charge you. It's probably heavily dependent on where you live. I'm happy to answer any further questions though.

Thank you very much! You are very helpful. I have a theater room and it looks nice but the soundproofing, equipment and rack are not up to par. I have learned a lot watching RU-vid’s videos. When you add your two other Subwoofers, will you have to purchase another amp and don’t you only have one other speaker port available?

@@0862ricky The AV10 actually has 4 sub outputs on it, so I have two more available. I will be getting two new amps when I do that. I'll probably go with the Behringer NX6000's.

Hi Frank... I'm going to use these RCA to XLR cables amzn.to/3RCd9im for the second row of surrounds.

@smart home MASTERY so you are using the xlr outs or one set of side surrounds and the RCA outs for the other set?

@@PortlandBanshee Correct. XLR-XLR for front side surrounds and RCA-XLR for rear side surrounds

@@PortlandBanshee Going to try it and see if I have any comb filtering. If I do, I can run the rear side surrounds into a DSP first..

@smart home MASTERY Thanks for the info. I'm looking at the same setup. Just haven't done it yet. Are you running the second set now or waiting?

From the MLP it's ~41 at floor level and ~32 at ear level.

@@smarthomeMASTERY 30 degrees is really perfect i think.Went Back from 50 to about 35°.But i will go exactly 30° i think 😊
