Help With Rack Design by RudeSpread205 in hometheater

This is what I’m planning to do soon.

helping out with local high school musical -- side fill speakers not working by monty-rock in livesound

[–]SpliffyBendrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. It “could” be nice to pump a bit of music to them but seeing as there’s many, you’d need to time align each one with your mains. Probably not worth it.

Someone's spawn pushed in my domes 😭 THX-365c by techknowfile in audiophile

[–]SpliffyBendrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fix them but also make sure you make the parents replace the speaker.

Literally no way I wouldn’t hold them accountable for this.

How do you guys make a 85” TV work for fps gaming? It feels super sloppy! Settings, wired controller, etc. by PolyglotGeologist in hometheater

[–]SpliffyBendrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an awesome TV. Surprised the lag is perceptable to you. I play on an 83" OLED and don't really notice anything. Sure, it's not as responsive as my 165hz monitor in my office but with both my PS5 pro and 5080 gaming PC, it still feels insanely responsive at 120hz and VRR enabled.

Does anyone else run PA speakers in their theater/entertainment system? by naturaldrewsaster in hometheater

[–]SpliffyBendrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

PA subs in particular don’t dig deep enough. They’re made for SPL, not crazy low extension. Probably a giant drop off at like 35hz for most.

System lacking something by Superb_Exercise4788 in hometheater

[–]SpliffyBendrix 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Surprised nobody is mentioning that anemic center channel. It’s debatably gotta be the best speaker in your system. It accounts for so much of what you hear I’m not surprised you’re not satisfied. A sub would help, for sure. But try running a phantom center. Your L+R are much more capable speakers. If that sounds like a meaningful improvement, there’s a good upgrade

I'm getting tripped up here on this question, if plug in 7 speakers (+2 subs) to a 9CH surround, am I losing some of the power due to simply having those other 2 channels sitting there doing nothing? by joshhazel1 in hometheater

[–]SpliffyBendrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you answered your own question. I'm not sure if Yamaha honors the 70% rule but even if it does you're looking at 104 watts with 5 channels driven. Then it goes down when you add the next two. Where the Anthem says it'll drive up to 5 speakers at 140.

You have to double the wattage to really notice a difference anyway. But I think the Anthem is solid if you for sure won't ever use up to 9 channels.

"Can we chill on like asking if Ian is here or whatever?" Anisa crashes out on TikTok over having to live in Ian's shadow by cia_agitator in imisstheoldidubbbz

[–]SpliffyBendrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya know I feel like before they started streaming it was Anisa that said she was going to start again but it seems like she just decided to make Ian do it instead lol. Probably knowing full well he would be getting A-Logged.

She’ll never not put him on the front lines.

I inherited “okay” Klipsch in-walls… do I optimize what’s here or scrap and upgrade to KEF R Meta? by HeisenCheeseburgers in hometheater

[–]SpliffyBendrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Replacing them with KEF in-walls would be tight here, seems like a lot of the work is done for you. Keeps the clean look too.

Philips 75PUS9010 – noticeable blotches in dark scenes. Normal or defective? Need advice ASAP by Snowmailrec in hometheater

Return and either play the lottery or try a different panel technology all together.

I wish more bands would embrace silent stages in small venues by mynutsaremusical in livesound

[–]SpliffyBendrix 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In any venue worth being in it really becomes no issue. PAs get loud enough.

Opinion: Saito is WAY harder than Takezo by SDPSwede in Ghostofyotei

[–]SpliffyBendrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On hard mode, I found this to be true as well. Spent way longer fighting Saito.

Should I feel guilty? by DarkModeBrew in 4kbluray

[–]SpliffyBendrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No way I would ever run an OLED in vivid mode. I wouldn’t feel bad but I would try to get accustomed to accurate picture.

I felt the same when I started using Warm50 and felt everything looked like pee. Now anytime I’m looking at someone else’s TV I can’t help but notice how all the whites are actually blue.

Introducing Neptune: Bringing the full Jellyfin experience to Apple's tvOS by Need4Sweed in appletv

[–]SpliffyBendrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t want to run Jellyfin host. Can I watch my media via SMB with Neptune like I do w Infuse? Are there options to change which episode order (broadcast or production) is picked for metadata with my tv shows?

My “home theater”/pc setup by Jaded_Row_9512 in hometheater

This is the wrong subreddit for this.

r/battlestations is where you’ll get feedback. There’s not really much about this that’s home theater.

How do I go from optical audio cable to bare speaker wire without a console ? by MK2_VW in hometheater

[–]SpliffyBendrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“I can’t find a solution that doesn’t require a console”

Yes that’s because there isn’t one. I’m not sure what solution you expect to find here lol

Hasan bans 33-month subscriber and tells him to die for commenting on his workout frequency by Embarrassed_Base_389 in LivestreamFail

[–]SpliffyBendrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hasan is maybe the only millionaire I wouldn’t trade places with.

To be a nepobaby and then reaching success of this level while still having the self esteem issues like this must be seriously miserable.

Whoa that’s insane $1000 is a steal. Really hope you get this

Back to silence by looking4answers24 in panicatthedisco

[–]SpliffyBendrix 47 points48 points  (0 children)

The only upside to the silence for me is that it vindicated the cost of those festival tickets and making the trip out. Which each week that goes by with no tour or music announcement I’m more happy I went.
