    This is probably my favorite home theater so far. Not many of us can afford the $200k theater's built in a mega mansion and after a while they all blend together. Any rich schmuck can pay somebody to build a real movie theater in their humongous house with a $60k projector and $40k in speakers but this DIY theater has heart & style and is something that a lot of us average Joes can achieve. Great job John @diyhometheater4199 I hope someday my scrappy basement theater can be half as nice as your garage. Cheers

    Fantastic Theater! I admire the skill and effort put into this. So much better than the tours I see where the person obviously has money, spends big money, hires professionals and get the basics of speaker placement wrong. This guy did everything right and I bet his "budget" setup sounds and looks better that those "professional" ones as well.

      @BuildMontage  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks for watching. Ironically, I do those tours as well - I don't discriminate in either direction.. The previous tour to this one was a high end room. There is a place for both. Having money should mean someone shouldn't make a nice non-diy room, but I get your point and I also really appreciate DIY, being a DIY guy myself :)

    • @diyhometheater4199
      @diyhometheater4199 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks man! Yeah I planned everything with maximum value in mind, including making absolutely sure speaker placement and viewing distance were all correct, because if they aren't it's not much different than throwing away money right?
      All the angles for the speakers are within atmos specs, the screen is 42.5° of viewing angle. I even have the left and right surrounds upside down so that the tweeter is lower to preserve a straight line from the rears to the fronts to keep the sound on a consistent plane.
      The saying goes, you can have cheap, fast, and good, but you can only pick 2. So it took 2 years 😆

    • @jjchmiel78
      @jjchmiel78 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@BuildMontage Don't get me wrong. I love high end rooms with equipment I can only dream of owning. I suck at DIY so if I had the money I would pay as well. What I HATE is they have it and do it but they ignore the professionals or the "professionals" are anything but. Speakers at 7' high with Atmos speaker in the 8' ceiling as an example. A huge screen that is not acoustic transparent with $5-10K speakers shoved into the corners and the center just sitting on the floor not even angled towards the listener. Doing 9 bed layer but only 2 Atmos. Again doing expensive speakers and really expensive powerful amps and yet only having 1 $300 Polk sub. The room may only be 14' deep but shoving their single row against the back wall and yet have Triad speakers. Having movie panel posters and they tell us it is on canvas. It is those type of builds where they have every advantage to make an incredible room and they don't that gets on my nerves.

The walls themselves serve as diffusers because of the gaps and angles in the panels, and the audyssey room correction does the rest for now.

      If you join Tony's discord, I have a build thread that explains things a bit better. So the controllers are synced together as such that they change effects, colors, brightness, speed and intensity together, but the effects that rely on RNG still produce different looks, even within segments on the same node.
      That effect, Lightning, is random, which basically works like each segment has a mind of its own, while obeying the commands of the user for brightness color etc.

      As for the stairs they were unavoidable, and all the speakers are properly positioned and on axis, so when the lights are down and the movie is on, you don't know they are there.
