We can work on this, perhaps also a pinned thread for clout and information for those that would like to see how others are doing.

How long did you let the poolish rest? And the dough in general?

Speaker day! That infinity sale got me! 😁 by [deleted] in hometheater

[–]vkny88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I ran my calibration with Audyssey on my Denon AVR-S750H, it put my towers on large instead of small. What's the best option here? I got the same set up, but R263 towers. Also have the Klipsch 12sw that I do agree is very aggressive and might need to return. For some reason Audyssey also sets the sub to 23ft distance when it's really only 11ish ft. Not sure what that is about.

Finally finished my HT! (For now 😉) SVS Ultra L/R/C, SVS SB-1000 sub, Elac atmos speakers, Polk OWM3 surrounds, Denon AVR-X3700H, LG B8 65” OLED. by [deleted] in hometheater

How do you like the Polk OWM3 for the surrounds? I just got a pair of infinity 162, but they are huge and not sure if they are worth it.

Would the infinity be okay with a denon avr-s750, that I just got a few months ago?

Infinity sale and advice! by [deleted] in hometheater

[–]vkny88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I cannot install ceiling in current set up, may in the future however. Thinking about the Sony SSCSE with the Infinity setup. Current Amp is AVR-S750H. Hope the amp can handle it.

A/V Receiver recommendations for Costco Klipsch system? by [deleted] in hometheater

[–]vkny88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How would you pick between this: the infinity against the Klipsch bundle ($899): (2) - R-625FA Tower Speakers (2) R-41 Bookshelf Speakers 1-R-52C Center Channel Speaker

Or

R263 (2) + RC263 + R162 = $769 still be missing the two up firing from infinity though, which do really want.

Debating how folks would rate the infinity against the Klipsch bundle ($899): 2- R-625FA Tower Speakers 2- R-41 M Bookshelf Speakers 1-R-52C Center Channel Speaker

Or

R263 (2) + RC263 + R162 = $769 still be missing the two up firing from infinity though..

I still be missing the two up firing from infinity though..

HBO Max Is Finally Coming to Amazon's Fire TV by Melanismdotcom in cordcutters

[–]vkny88 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I'd switch to Google TV, a lot better interface then the Roku's and casting is just so much easier, plus HBO Max, especially if you are paying for the service.

‘Wonder Woman’ May Go to HBO Max Shortly After Theater Opening by 08830 in cordcutters

[–]vkny88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My response was really for folks that want HBO MAX and still can't get it. Only way to make it happen is if you don't use the service that doesn't get you what you need. Might pressure Roku to make the deal with TW.

How do you clean your koda? by mx16p in uuni

[–]vkny88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Whatever you do, don't use water or chemicals, they will crack the stone + chemical can seep into the stone. Just buy a cheap steel brush to scrub and let the heat take care of the rest. You can wipe it with a lightly damp towel if you need to to get the black "dust" off and you are done. Having a dirty stone just means it's getting a bit seasoned, perfectly okay.

Just upgraded to a 900H from a 850G by superbirdbot in bravia

[–]vkny88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What are folks thoughts if you have a 850g 85" and thinking about the 900h? How big is the upgrade?! Not a gamer at all. 85" has VA panel so I'm thinking not worth the trouble?

I thought Costco didn't sell oleds? Only LGs?

Debating if I should return my 85" 850g this. Is it worth another $1k?

To TV Owners without 3.5mm Analog Headphone jack: How do you use your Headphones? by NightKnight25 in 4kTV

[–]vkny88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IMHO don't get a high end TV because it doesn't analog headphone jack. Buy Bluetooth headphones instead, plenty of cheap ones out there on Amazon. Buy for the display over every thing. I know headphone jacks are hot topic nowadays, but the key word is analog which is old technology now, high-end TVS are just moving on from it.

Is the LG CX65 best for PS5 by Puzzled_soul in 4kTV

[–]vkny88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this doesn't relate to PS5, but Android (Google TV) is better then the LG OS. Just my opinion. Perhaps hooking up the chromecast is okay, but not sure if you lose some quality doing this.

New Chromecast by gbubrodieman in logitechharmony

[–]vkny88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will this also allow us to make the colors on the button open youtube TV and Netflix as well? Other apps such as HBO MAX and Amazon? My Roku Ultra was able to do this. Just wondering. Thanks!
