Hi Balajitr,

Thats a fearfully powerful system you possess.

Questions though .....
1) would you really require the HSU sub ... since the front speakers have inbuilt sub-woofers (300 W) with 17 Hz capability?

2) Emotiva XPA 5 ... ? the Denon 2311 should have been more than sufficient!

Anyway, feel sorry for your neighbours ......

Thanks to Hifivision and all the respected members-----now i have almost completed setup of my HT ROOM.

Above are the pictures before Acoustic treatment, and the below are after the basic acoustic treatment. .Still i need acoustic panels for first reflection points + bass traps + diffusers etc.

I had a limited budget so it required lot of thinking, guidance and hard-work beforehand. Extensive price comparison and selection was done for all the materials/items.( Toughest part)

1) Armstrong acoustic tiles are used for ceiling
2) For walls 8 ft x 4 ft acoustic/fiber board + high density/thick glasswool is used.
3)The board is covered with non woven carpet
4) used my old window Air conditioner due to budget constraints (split Ac may next time i renovate )
5) Purchased new PJ screen 7 ft x 5 ft @ Rs 8500/- + surround wharfedale WH2 speaker pair @ Rs 6300/- + Dishtv HD STB @ Rs 2900/- + WDTV Live @ Rs 6500/- + ITB WD USB HDD
@ Rs 4300/- + HDMI Switch, 3 in one out @ Rs 4500/- + sofa cum bed @ Rs 4200/- + Belkin 8 socket extension board for surge protection @ Rs 1400/- + Airtel 1MBPS broadband connection, unlimited @ Rs 660 P.M

Cheers :yahoo:

Hi aVidyarthy....with subwoofers I feel more is better, multiple subs tend to remove the 'dead' spots in the room. In my case all 6 seats get almost equal bass treatment!

I wanted to keep the amp separate from the processor, hence the XPA5 + 2311. With any luck the XPA5 will be with me for a long long period, within which I would be replacing the receiver to get the latest hardware/firmware.

congrats mandeep, enjoy the setup bro.:yahoo:

Mandeep, very nice upgrade. Liked the concept of hanging cinema cutouts to make it give a theater experiance.

The white power cord coming out of the TV.. you can paint it black, am sure this will not void the warranty and will make it invisible with the background.

 

[venkatcr]

Good Job, Mandeep. Shows the care and effort you have taken to set up the room. The rear channels speakers seem to close to each other. Can you position them a little more apart from each other - maybe higher and over the TV? If it is too much hassle leave it as is.

Cheers

hi mandeep nice set up

would recommend to move sub out of the rack into one of the corners (experiment with different positions where you get the best low freq)

install full carpet on floor

using a darker color on roof would enhance viewing thro PJ

 

[subhash]

hi mandeep

jst noticed the sub is sitting on the floor and not on rack
as long as you are getting good amt of tight low Freq @ that position and if it doesnt rattle the glass on top and other equipments jst let it be

did you get the rack made? am still looking for one

Thanks to all respected members.

@ haisaikat : Thanks dear, the JAWS,ROCKY,E.T cinema cutouts are home made, laser printout's pasted on thick thermocol sheet, framed with decorative black tape.

The white cord like thing--> is actually PJ screen's manual pull-down rope, don't know what to do with it.

@ venkatcr: thanks dear, sir the problem is that the room is quite small length wise, that's why all speakers are close to each other

@ subash ---> thanks dear, The bass seems ok without any rattle of the glass above, but i have never tried other positions, will give it a try.

yes, the rack is custom made on site by the carpenter.

 

[spirovious]

Congrats manddep ,nice work done.

 

[Imrahn]

Woah, really like the thought and work gone into the setup bro.Full props to u!!!

 

[sud98]

Nice setup Mandeep. Congratulations.

Can you put the names of the equipment you have in your signature so we can relate them to the pictures?

What are your room dimensions? Looks a bit tight, so nice to see a HT setup possible in such a space.

 

[TaureanBull]

Hi Mandeep. Thats a very nice setup. I love the frames you made of posters.

OT : Your camera lens needs cleaning. There are spots!

Everyone except me are able to view the pics I guess.:sad: When I click on the links, I'm getting the msg "Domain Unregistered. To view register at: bit.ly/imageshack-domain" Don't know why?

When I go to that site, the message says "If you don't want to wait, you can also register and login to ImageShack, and all images will be visible for you." but the 'Login doesn't work.

Very nice Mandeep. The efforts you have put into the HT has paid off. Enjoy brother:cheers:.

Like subhash has mentioned, do try out different placements for the subwoofer. Try corners as placing a sub in a corner can give you an audible increase in SPL (Sound Pressure Level) for the same volume setting.
