Thoughts on the new Dune movie ?
hometheatrebugbitten replied to cafe67's topic in Movies - Box Office, Blu-ray Releases etc.
Dune 2020 release delayed until October 2021 🙁 -
yes generally common for the AVR to set the sub too low MLP = Main Listening Position (assume MPL is an error) or in my household the Male Listening Position also known as the BDP (Beer/Bourbon Drinking Position) when reclined

Just as a followup the issue has not occurred since (not even the slightest hint of it) playing any other disc or media Put the Bloodshot disc back on keeping volumes reasonable to avoid any potential damage and there it is. I'll take the disc back to JB and see if I can get a replacement. cheers for all the replies/suggestions

5.1 vs 2.1 for the same $? ($3-$4k)
hometheatrebugbitten replied to Ritero's topic in Beginners & Purchasing Advice
my view is slightly different - given you have the AVR and sub $3,000 is plenty to put together a reasonable set of 5 speakers that will allow you to play music on 2.1 or 5.1 AND cover the surround side of HT. Sound bars can be good but a proper 5.1 system is better IMO. I have 5.1.2 - not including the atmos/sub my (5) speakers were under $3,000 (new). Could I spend more, sure, but I have other hobbies/priorities too and I'm more than happy with them. Given you are in Adelaide it may pay to speak with Edward at Adelaide speakers he is easy to deal with, that said he's not y -

Which subwoofer
hometheatrebugbitten replied to The Paul's topic in Speakers, Soundbars and Subwoofers
I have the SVS 2000 - great sub (couldn't knock either sub) The metal grill has the added advantage of extra security from knocks etc. (and cats) -

Budget Bi-Wire speaker cables
hometheatrebugbitten replied to Abbuts's topic in Speakers, Soundbars and Subwoofers
recommend NB speaker cables at that budget https://www.nbspeakercables.com.au/ no need to biwire just replace the jumpers on the speakers with some decent gague copper wire if they have the brass jumpers other option would be just to run your own 'bare' decent gauge OFC speaker cable -
Cafe Sound System Fit Out Advice
hometheatrebugbitten replied to luiset's topic in Beginners & Purchasing Advice
Accoustic treatments won't only benefit the music side of things but also the general ambience of the place, when catching up with freinds there are restuarants and cafe's we (as a family) are less likely to go to and those that are prefered based on the harshness of having/hearing a conversation, the same goes for meetings with clients etc. Edit - And I don't have hearing issues (yet)
