hah anubis is famous!

and that guy who's theater that is, is the guy i bought my subs from. his theater looks A LOT cleaner now than when i was there last year, looks really nice. i love the stage with the speakers behind the at transparent screen.

 

[Anubis]

dumping camera
Before i started poly

this is what it looked like today before i started

400 grit on block

no pressure just drag it with the grain

Wipe off dust - i use super tight weave cotton or polyester rags, just want something that wont snag the grain or leave fibers behind - microfiber works great for this

Another coat on

Shame the front is gonna be facing the couch, i like how it looks. Not sure why its a lil blotchy, it did get the prestain /shrug.

no EQ, just the 24 + mains, 1/12th smoothing about 2000 watts into it - Bridged EP4000 , I can get it 2x that with the clone

 

[purbeast0]

hah holy shit i can't imagine how that thing hits. when are you going to build another one?

hard, very very hard

when are you going to build another one?

when i move

 

[purbeast0]

hard, very very hard

when i move

that will be insane, then you will have to do 16 of them like popalock!

 

[Soccerman06]

Infinite baffle 16 of those!

 

[Anubis]

yea I wish I could afford to spend 16k on just subs but I cant. I know someone who bought 8 of the 24s, when he gets his theater built im gonna drive over there because that's just nuts, not sure if he is IBing or something else.

+ the wall space needed to do 16 is just stupid. even 8 front and back would require a HUGE room

Thats why Id rather have a FH with a couple subs made for 5hz, you may need a room dedicated for it, but at least you arent sacrificing usable theater space for 8 subs (hypothetically) and their enclosure.

 

[Anubis]

is there a FH made for going that low? the Gjallarhorn and orthhorn dont go that low and they are 2 of the biggest, same with the DTS10

 

[Soccerman06]

It is in no way practical, but its possible. Youd be making your own design with hornresp with a driver made with horns in mind. Its easier to make a bunch of sealed or ported subs but thats too easy

 

[exar333]

Got my 3.2 setup all done. Sounds amazing for the room it is in.



2x DefTech Mythos STS Towers
1x Mythos 9 Center
2x Emotiva XPA-1L (R/L) Monoblock 250w 8ohm each
Marantz 1403 Receiver (only powering center)

 

[bob82]

do not tell me the model stands for the components of your post?

I don't remember where I bought it.. it might have been at ABC Warehouse like 10 years ago. I did some searching on the internet and can't find it. It has no markings so I can't identify a brand name. But, the thing feels like it is made out of iron, because empty it weighs about 50lb.

Anyhow, I moved into a new house and started fresh.. no theater room yet, but I have the server room all ready to go for when I do.

File Server:
Intel i5 2500k Processor
Gigabyte Z77X-D3H Motherboard
8GB Corsair Dominator DDR3-1600
90GB Corsair ForceGT SSD [OS Drive]

Ceton InfiniTV 4
Rocketfish Case (modded to hold 20 hard drives)
Highpoint DC-7280 Datacenter HBA
Sans Digital TowerRAID 8-bay eSATA Enclosure
Zalman 850w Heatpipe Cooled PSU
WHS 2011
1459 Blu-ray 1080p encodes, 71 Full TV Series 720p encodes, ~40,000 MP3's.

HTPC's:
3 of each...
MSI P67A-G43 Motherboard
Intel i3 2100 Processor
PNY 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Corsair Force 3 60GB SSD

Monoprice USB to Ethernet to the IR Receivers mounted under the TV's (power up/down of the PC and control WMC)
Recordings all get archived to the WHS via the home server storage plug-in, so the 60GB SSD's are sufficient)
All HTPC's run Win7 x64 with MediaBrowser

The rack:
3x HTPC's (see above)
ProAudioVideo 22u / 1000mm Deep Rack
Belkin PF60 Power Center
Zyxel 24port Gigabit Switch
Asus RT-N16 running DD-WRT (Linux Kernel 3.10.2)
Motorola SB6121
Everything is on a CyberPower 1500VA UPS (about 25mins in a power outage, with PC shutdown scripts via USB)

And the main TV room with a 60'' LG 3D Plasma

The next plans are for the cigar room I'm building downstairs to have the 2nd HTPC hooked up to provide content there, and the 3rd in the upstairs living room. The theater will be a work in progress and should be done in a few years. I have all the equipment already from the old house.. I just need to rebuild it all with a themed layout. I pretty much have the plans already.
