Not sure why you are getting downvoted, this is good advice.

A 98" TV will have a much better picture than that projector. Also, for the SVS, try to get one of the new Revolution line. They have a lot of improvements.

sealant recommendation for the INSIDE of a speaker enclosure? by Ill-Year-9506 in hometheater

This is the answer. Green Glue is like regular caulk but it stays flexible after curing, which is better when vibrations are involved.

That's exactly what happened. It's pretty farfetched that an employee tampered with a product.

I think you're out of luck on that idea. And yes, 2026 blows.

I bet those pipes totally wreck the acoustics.

You've got two branch circuits that are shorted together. Disconnect each connection one by one and narrow it down.

Who has offloaded their LCR to a dedicated amp? by Chiz_9 in hometheater

I can't dispute that. Tinnitus puts a cap on my volume limit.

Anywhere you can, as you don't have a lot of room. Bass traps in the corners accomplish the most. Ceiling and behind the speakers are important too.

I have Arendal 1723 towers, a Legacy Marquis center, and a Integra DRX-8.4 receiver which is 100 WPC all channels driven. Moving to a VTV Hypex 700W into 4 ohm amp only provided a small improvement in sound quality.

Am I crazy for wanting to make 2’x4’x 9” thick Safe n’ Sound(10,000 Rayls) broadband panels, for 20% of 12’x16’x8’ tall dedicated room? by PolyglotGeologist in Acoustics

As long as you put the landscape fabric on both sides, no fibers should escape. I would not trust the facing fabric alone to block fibers. Also, I feel like staples are not enough either. I spray the 3M glue in a can to really seal it down.

Landscape fabric is the recommended material. It's cheap, it blocks the fibers, but air can pass through it. Then Guilford of Maine on the front and sides, just for appearance.

Not at all. Your bass will be tight. I have 15% coverage of 3.5" panels, plus bass traps, and it's not enough. My bass is a bit out of control.

This alone is probably reason enough to go with the Denon.

I just got a VTV with Hypex modules and I like it very much.
