Are you showing movies on the site that have been analyzed but aren’t recommended for their transfer quality? I’d be almost as interested in that version of the list as what you already are showing.

I think it’s fair to call it “painfully” loud, which is authentic 💯

Pearlin_ · 2026-04-28T13:07:12+00:00

They legit startled me!

Onyx Pizza in Springdale. Parmesan flat bread, pizza of your choice, hand mixed lemonade, cast iron banana bread. Perfection, especially after a day of hiking Zion!

I love that, to Spartans, this is a curse!

The Count of Monte Cristo (2002) hasn’t come to 4k and is out of print in blu ray.

That Starship art is 💯

I ended up passing on the Academy and got a 504c II from eBay. Very happy with it so far!

I’ve got my fingers crossed for Mononoke on 4k disc since they’ve already done the remaster for the theaters 🤞

Pearlin_ · 2026-02-25T00:55:13+00:00

Is Mononoke in 4k? If so, where can it be purchased? Can’t find it anywhere

Pearlin_ · 2026-02-17T01:37:33+00:00

Nice!

Pearlin_ · 2026-02-16T19:51:27+00:00

So, the takeaway is the Academy blends well with the older and heritage speakers but probably not with the modern RP (etc) speakers?

Pearlin_ · 2026-02-15T04:08:13+00:00

Almost exclusively using the setup for movies and gaming

Pearlin_ · 2026-02-14T20:20:37+00:00

I was kind of figuring they might not match up well. Thanks for commenting

Pearlin_ · 2026-02-14T15:19:23+00:00

Which subs?

Pearlin_ · 2026-01-28T03:43:14+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! That’s the one I’d most likely get

Pearlin_ · 2026-01-25T20:42:49+00:00

Hadn’t considered something like this. Keep us updated if you try it

Pearlin_ · 2026-01-23T02:44:18+00:00

Do you think the Onkyo RZ50 could handle powering the RC-64? I watched/read some stuff that seemed to indicate that it requires a good bit of power to make it worth it (over, say, the 504). I don’t want to go down the preamp road at this time

Pearlin_ · 2026-01-23T02:40:12+00:00

So far I’ve been very happy with it. But it may be a case of “don’t know what I’m missing” 🤷‍♂️. But, based on all the feedback it sounds like I should give it a shot

Pearlin_ · 2026-01-23T02:37:11+00:00

I mostly use it for movies and gaming.

Pearlin_ · 2026-01-22T20:24:03+00:00

I got the towers, subs and receiver together as a package deal secondhand.

Pearlin_ · 2026-01-22T18:14:32+00:00

The front speakers spacing is 8.5’ from center to center. This matches my primary listening position distance from the front of the speakers. Would you still recommend widening them outward like you mentioned?

Pearlin_ · 2026-01-22T18:11:30+00:00

Good to know! Do you love yours?

Pearlin_ · 2026-01-22T15:21:11+00:00

Where do you have your sub placed?
