THX cinema with pro cinema audio gear

another sub on the way ? why all these subs ? JBL duel 12" sub narrow stereo behind back of the room only for the overhead surrounds and maybe the side/back surrounds via the extra outputs on the stormaudio isp32

I thought of you, Andy.

First of all, for the cats, because I have my new second cat, which I'll show you.


Then I often watch your videos on YouTube.

I'm building a second cinema room with a friend that will be used for atmos music mixing.

It will be JBL PRO 3153s and jbl 8331 surround speakers.

kitty likes chewing on cables ( just make sure not mains cables )

i have bundles of ideas ( that doubtful be used in my room due to it being too small )
if doing a room/helping for someone , i seriously stressful recommend installing in-floor surround using same speaker ( cheap good affordable ) multi array in-floor it be the last key element to surround as there be nowhere else left for it to then go ? that'll be it
its possible to re-configure or trade off one of the few overhead surrounds and use them or part of the signal for below surround but i sense atmos has limitations ( but it is doubly feasible ) if your friend doesn't he be stufck with what Dolby labs have done , brainwashed everyone and be stuck with a half useless system , atmos by any definition ain't a 3d immersive format ( until i say it is ) 14 years of this , it should have been using discrete on-floor or ( in-floor is best , wooden floor ) since the start of all of it 2012

if i only had a room that is few feet wider and just a foot higher , length is okay fine

thinking of a way , there's always a way

the above frequency crossovers is to reduce minimise cross-talk

if i only had room size , a shallow profile in-floor surrounds or sub arrays of a different kind , the room height will reduce 7' feet 8" inches to around 7' feet 4" , if i was stretching out tiptoed arms up , i be touching the ceiling , ( that is called an audio workout lol )

i see how soundtracks are happening in certain movies and how limited the dubbing stages mixing techniques are even thou the rooms are far larger than common homes ( cinema is dying public don't care about cinemas much anymore now which is why most some what it at home )

i know how sine wave tomes work now in terms of frequency and it got me thinking ( since no actual update of LFE , LFE.1 hasn't evolved or changed that much since baby boom 1977 ) there should have been at least by now , LFE.1 , LFE.2 , LFE.3 LFE.4 , LFE.5 , LFE.6 , LFE.7 , LFE.8 , LFE.9 , LFE.10 etc , etc ( if i had to complexly watch a movie and take some lots of guesses as to where there should be these extra LFE channels placed around a room and the room would have to go though a complete alteration change or built brand new from ground up

what i notice in real world certainly doesn't translate to to mixing standards of speakers in a room its far cry from any of what i notice in the real world , that is immersive-ness , not some half like two dimensional Atmos gimmick with Dolby labs , or unimaginative engineers smpte , cas with their lousy standards that seem as about outdated to , fantasound 1941

but is that what all this has come to ? us , or others so bored with their lives they got to lose it now with , woke movies , woke Atmos , woke video screen walls ?
real life will at the end of the day topple all this Atmos 3d screens and leave it in the dust , " mark my words "

dolby labs have been so lazy , no interest for themselves engineers or sales marketing

this dolby atmos , anthony grimani , ex dolby labs , he seems so unimaginative and his attitude at end of the video shows ( then again i rant in videos with aggressive passion as i'm hungry for it )



more to be added/edited later , yes i have to do deep thinking its a lot , lot , lot more to it

have the region 2 so region 1 dvd is upgrade
moonraker testing on the JBL motion picture loudspeaker system , with lucasfilm ltd THX sound system , t-minus 1hr , this is mission moonraker control
all crew members close and lock your visors
sub bass engine rumble
 
this is mission moonraker control we are at the scrub cancel mission flight due to technical problem with the playback
we have requested with seller for refund and therefore have to go for another moonraker r1 THX
disc failed on two players that are fully r1 compatible

( we have gotten another r1 THX due soon )
( our back up crew r2 is okay we just don't like the 4% pitch yaw on the disc speed )

we have advised agent henchman " jaws " if we don't get this resolved with seller , jaws will bite him , enough said
these issues rarely happen with r1
this is mission moonraker control

this drax mission control we have something specially spatial designed and soon on its way for test AC-3 flight in a week

region 1 upgrade , the bluray is meh , the 4k atmos is trash , so often always played r2 due to 4% it vexes me , so got a cheap r1 now that is an upgrade for THX/TAP aier busting bass here in THX sound system , the muskets feel like earthquakes

The Deep 1977

This is worth watching, it's a really good movie. Too bad they don't make movies like this anymore. Almost all new movies have way too many incoherent scenes. This is one of Nick Nolte's best.

deep testing to make the best deepest possible playbledeepback on this is deeply in the works here in THX cinema , if moonbassraker comes up then i have to move over to that here at the THX cinema , the progress of moon bass is highest on the list of course one must preserve nature with cats

when sub bass needs go extra many dB gain above the rest here in THX cinema its doable
