Great video that I will watch again and again to get it right. However, and I realize its just for learning/demonstration purposes, it always makes me cringe when someone plops my 'head' right smack dab in the middle of a room. You even see this habit on angle charts or in guides! I suppose it doesnt much matter in a learning/guide enviroment but it always makes me wonder how many people set up their system according to these charts, and get the set up right, but install based off less-than-optimum seating locations that is oh so commonly indicated on graphs and in guides.

Know without you i would be lost but some recordi louder ⁹

The engineers are wrong at denon and you are right? Ok got it

Hello, where can I download demos, movies or music in Dolby Atmos to test my setup (Denon x3800h with 5.2.4), thank you?

Nice build! How many of these hammers have you produced now?

Nice!

How high should my rear speaker be and do you have a calculation equation for that? Thank you! (5.1.4)

I'm on joists (there's a basement below my theater), and my 4 x 18" subs are doing some infrasonic now. If I add these, they're gonna be a pain in the butt to setup and sync up; all tactile transducers are, so this doesn't seem like the product for me.

Way too much detail - I wish you would just stick with the Home Theater basic setup. You are all over the place and it is very annoying.

I feel like its pretty easy to learn that the off button is on the top left. It’s the most common location for a off button since remotes have existed. Its not a big deal. And why would anyone set the remote down with the screen down? You’re creating your own problems.

So the Atmos overhead speakers should not be, vertically, right over you (0 degrees)? The should be forward...a little in front of you (30 degrees or so)? And you should make this top front instead of top middle?

Love the videos, so incredibly informative. I'm a math guy with a background in audio engineering so it's all clicking. I'm planning a 5.2.4 setup and want to get this right, so I have 2 questions. My room is 14 feet wide, 22 ft long, 8.5 high. What angle would you put the rears at? I watched prev videos talking about 60 degrees all the way around but 5 channels won't cover that. Also - "toe in" means just AIMING the speaker, correct? Thank you so much!

Hi, i enjoy every minute of the video, Thanks for showing and would like to shake your hand sir 👌🔥👍

My room is small and I’m only 10’6” from the screen. My ceiling is 11’ high room is 13 deep and 10’6” wide. One of the back corners is angled so I’ll have to put my surrounds on the wall in front of me. Should I mount the atmos on poles down a few feet from the ceiling? Also should I do top front or top middle?

Like the Harmony with Hub can the App be used to control devices so others in the household can use that instead of the remote?

Thanks so much! I have been avoiding using a SPL meter because I wanted a quality one. Well your tip to use anything, even a cellphone since it will do it equally to all channels, was the best practical advice I've taken away this year. Finally I hear everything as it should be and what I've always expected. I always felt like I could differentiate the volume by ear. Wow was I wrong. Just had to let go of my pride long enough to try what everyone has said for years.

How do I use the 10% off Seymour screen deal?

Huge thanks for this one, I have no idea what I'd have done without this. Googling "speaker placement" is just chaos, but this layed everything out perfectly. Paired with episode 49, I think I'm pretty much set for 7.3.4! Not to mention how helpful the REW tutorial was for those 3 subs.

Couldn't i use some combo panels

Is there a HUGE difference from a Silver Ticket AT screen to a Seymour Screen AT screen? Both Woven,. The price difference is around 1400

I find that after audyssey setup, centre channel volume is extremely low and I can barely hear the audio (even with the global volume at 55 on the absolute scale). Against your advice I increased the centre channel level by 6db and also had to set Dynamic Volume to Light. Without these setting changes, the surrounds are great, but the dialogue is extremely poor. The centre speaker is placed right on the edge of my stand, alomost overhanging the edge by a few inches, at ear height, and there are no obstructions..

This is a great video. I have the Logitech Harmony and have been curious about the up and coming devices with SofaBaton being one of them. I have been struggling with the Harmony not being able to control my lights and this video got me thinking about it. I came up with an option that works great for me and wanted to share. If you use Home Assistant, you can install an Emulated Roku and an Emulated Hue app that will allow you to tie into your smart home. I am now able to use the Harming home control buttons to control my lights AND I can hit the Pause button during an activity and turn on the LED light strips. I can then hit the Play button to turn them off when returning to the movie. Thank you Steve for this video as it helped me resolve one of my biggest issues. Appreciate you!

I just want to double check; do I a) look at the direct angle from my ear to the speaker cone, to be 55 degrees or b) I look straight forward, measure 55 degrees, look straight left, measure 55 degrees, and then find the intersection? (now the angle between my ear and the speaker cone is no longer 55 degrees, but rather something closer to 45. a) basically draws a circle around me, where as b) I think gets to a rectangle/square

all for a helicopter waste of time and money

Is there a similar diagram as shown in 11:05 for a .2 overhead speaker setup? I did some googling and found this PDF but couldn’t readily find any info for 2 over head speakers

i have 5 in wall jbl studio speakers and a 400w sub. the sound is absolutely incredible. music or movies. off the chart. and i have had a lifetime of great speaker set ups.

Thanks for this info great work. I am using the Audyssey pro kit and am using my Marantz 8802 to set my subs crossover. On my Velodyne DD15+ sub I have a line level control setting and a speaker level control setting and also a high pass crossover setting 100 or 80 hz. What would I set these to BEFORE running my room correction. I know to set my low pass crossover to the highest setting on my sub but the other 3 settings I don’t know about. Thank

What was your AVR volume level when you recorded these?

Could you use a higher end outdoor speaker like the Klipsch RSM-800? Black on a black ceiling, using the mounting bracket to point it exactly where you want.

Have a 5.1 speaker system. The 2 speakers that go in front ( not center ), my receiver has front speakers and front surround speakers. Which is the best connection for the best experience.

You didn't talk about the physical dampening of the cone that occurs in a sealed enclosure, but does not occur is a ported enclosure, at least not at the same level. Without servo control, the sealed enclosure will be more accurate and tighter. Changing EQ settings will not change this. There is no free lunch. You can't have the extra efficiency down low and not have a cost somewhere else.

Is there any chance this is compatible with soundbars like Sony HT-A7000?

I have 2 x polk subw, mxt12 (50rms)and hts12(200rms) .Wich one to put în front/back

Hello Young Handsome Sir! From the MLP, looking up at all four height channels, they all measure a perfect 45 degrees. Triad doesn’t live here, so we’re stuck choosing between the Klipsch THX 5002L & Klipsch PRO-180RPC LCR. The Klipsch THX has more output (2 x 5.25” drivers + front port aimed straight down, 1” tweeter aimed at MLP - 45degrees) yet the Klipsch PRO has both driver+tweeter aimed (8” driver + 1” tweeter aimed at MLP - 45degrees). Which would you personally choose in this toss up Young Handsome Awe-inspiringly Intelligent Sir?

What speaker do you recommend for Atmos and what ceiling mount to use for them?

What is the best sound for the back speakers? 5% or 20% over the bed layer?

What is the ideal choice of atmos speakers if you could go either way? In ceiling speakers or bookshelf’s used as high speakers ? I see so much content on why go either way but was is your opinion to get maximized atmos experience ?

What if you only have xlr outputs?

i was thinking about rear left and right Ceiling speakers instead of standing ones. What's your view on this?

When you say "the atmos improved" after moving the heights in, what does that mean? Better separation? Better quality? What should I listen for?

I angled my surrounds forward a bit, so I can see them but keep them slightly above ear-level because those are the heights of my speaker stands. Is that okay or should I be moving them back more and putting them up higher? You had another video on angles. I'm afraid surrounds and rears will be too close wit those angles. I'd have to move the rears closer together to get better separation.

How would you recommend fixing this issue if I don't have room for front wides because they'd be in the walkway? Is there a way to make the panning sound better by angling the speakers more?

I didn't know Dolby Surround upmixed to front wides. In Atmos mixes, those only activate with objects, so it's more rare to hear stuff in them.

After seeing multiple theaters, the thing I liked the best were deeper rooms. My room doesn't have enough depth, so stuff that should pan around and go through the room happens very fast, and you don't get that separation. I'd love to add 2 front wides, but I don't have room for them. In fact, I'd like a center back too, but I'd need a Storm or Trinnov for that guy or I have to choose to lose both rear surrounds. I'm excited to move into a new house and build a bigger theater, so I can add more speakers. Can't wait to have side surrounds slightly behind me and front wides to widen the sound stage!

You mean 5.1.2 assign the speakers as top Front and about 70 degree from head?

Hey thanks for making the video.

I cannot have the side surrounds because there is a door/opening where it should be placed. I can do Rear/back surrounds, di-pole/bi-pole. Should I go for Ceiling mounted side surrounds, or forget about that , and just do height channels instead?

None of this matter because at the end of the day every single surround sound setup will only have one hot spot, I don't care what you do there is only one hotspot . There for a wide is not required !

Thank you for another excellent video, it helped me designing my living room home theater. My sound system consists of 6 SVS Ultra Bookshelf speakers (2 for the mains, 2 for the side channels, and 2 for the rears), an SVS Ultra Center speaker, 4 SVS Prime Elevation speakers ceiling mounted for Dolby Atmos and 2 SVS SB-3000 Subwoofers. The system is powered by a Parasound Halo A52+ 5 channel amplifier and a Yamaha Aventage RX-A8A 11 channel AVR with dual AC Infinity AIRCOM T9's keeping them cool, and all are connected to a Panamax M5400-PM Power Conditioner. The output power of this Living Room home theater system is 2,800 watts R.M.S.
