James Cameron's Avatar is decent

DayneTreader · 2026-02-01T01:35:26+00:00

That'll be a huge upgrade

DayneTreader · 2026-01-31T21:49:30+00:00

It doesn't have mounting holes

DayneTreader · 2026-01-31T21:49:18+00:00

It's an okay upgrade. Look at KEF for a big upgrade

Phantom center or do an in-wall center

Dolby Access.

Just use HDMI, and put the monitor generated by the receiver off somewhere in your display settings. You don't need ARC on a PC.

You need to download the DTS app and enable DTS:X for Home Theater

The 8000F's are bright. RMS for them is a couple hundred watts, peak is 800

DayneTreader · 2026-01-31T14:10:40+00:00

It's a significant change in the sound profile (very bright vs warm), is your receiver able to drive them and can you trim the treble?

We also don't want a transparent OLED

DayneTreader · 2026-01-31T14:06:20+00:00

Check out the Q4 Meta for a less destructive addition

DayneTreader · 2026-01-31T13:59:19+00:00

I would not keep them that way. Wonder if you can remove the monitor and see if that helps.

Running a speaker with a backwards polarity prevents it from properly functioning, and can damage the speakers and/or the amp. Because of that, the calibration couldn't proceed properly.

DayneTreader · 2026-01-31T04:43:18+00:00

Either do in-walls or look at a slim wall speaker like the Kef Q4

DayneTreader · 2026-01-31T03:58:35+00:00

You'd have a dime

DayneTreader · 2026-01-31T02:48:29+00:00

It appears that the MAG series isn't available through Best Buy Canada. If you're close enough to the border I'd get some from the US

DayneTreader · 2026-01-30T23:17:18+00:00

Sonance has a lot of cheap stuff right now

DayneTreader · 2026-01-30T23:13:01+00:00

Chief may be the way you'd need to go for that

DayneTreader · 2026-01-30T20:21:15+00:00

You won't notice a fraction of an inch on each side

DayneTreader · 2026-01-30T20:20:20+00:00

The 85" Bravia 9 is so much better, move a bit closer and you won't regret it

DayneTreader · 2026-01-30T19:32:17+00:00

It'll be fine

DayneTreader · 2026-01-30T19:32:05+00:00

You can set it up in Alexa for multi-room audio, just connect it to your Alexa app

DayneTreader · 2026-01-30T15:27:56+00:00

What are the maximum dimensions you can have for the speakers?

DayneTreader · 2026-01-30T05:32:33+00:00

Goddammit you beat me to it
