    Are projectors substantially reducing in price and so out-competing LED TV's?

    Dedicated room build

    Looks great !! As you have a dedicated room, did you consider hiding your front speakers? This appears to be an objective once you have a dedicated room in the USA. Cinema designer Dennis Erskin is a proponent of this line of thinking. Check you-tube. I do not think I would do it for myself as...

    Dibs on Sales....An Unnecessary Frustration?

    This appears to be something that could be added to the advert layout. "Dibs will not be enetertained" or  "I do not accept dibs" etc I have no problem with "dibs". For me it is the same as taking an option to buy. But it must have an explicit time limit attached. One or two days etc. It...

    Camps Bay Home Cinema - 2017

    +1 CAD I think that many of us have a misconception ito the room size we require for a cinema. This shows just what can be achieved in a relatively small space. And the cost to do a smaller space is less!!

    My Atmos dilemma, need help please

    Thanks Ken, Certainly more immersive then. It is my perception that the OP asked whether an "Atmos speaker placement/capability" would be prefereable to "rear surround speakers" as in a 7.1 arrangement. I would say a definite YES. This is a typical problem many persons face where the...

    Camps Bay Home Cinema - 2017

    A good idea would perhaps be to invite the Cape Town Hi-Fi Club to a Trinov music and movies demo. I would definitely attend.

    My Atmos dilemma, need help please

    Also Ken, A 2x speaker Atmos ceiling system has discrete channels for each speaker. Is this still the case when using the "upmix"? A 4x speaker Atmos ceiling system has discrete channels for each speaker. Is this still the case when using the "upmix"?

    My Atmos dilemma, need help please

    Thanks Ken. So this "upmixer" is a function a user chooses on an Atmos AVR? If so, do all Atmos AVR's have this function? And Trinov?

    My Atmos dilemma, need help please

    Do Netflix streamed movies also contain Atmos soundtracks? Showmax? DSTV?

    New AV Room build

    I have used dipoles for sides on a 7.1 set-up and it worked really well. Dipoles are still of use.

    Perhaps it will help looking at this pro installation being done in Camps Bay at the moment https://www.avforums.co.za/index.php/topic,67296.0.html

    Camps Bay Home Cinema - 2017

    Hello Morgan, Have read the thread again and the following springs to mind >>> 1) The chevron on the side walls design looks really great. Great workmanship. Easthetically this is a prize project. 2) You have stated this is an Atmos focussed theatre. The ceiling speakers are clearly so...

    HTS upgrade conundrum

    I would never be able to be happy with a soundbar. It just does not have the ability to place the sound spatially correct.

    HTS upgrade conundrum

    Which satelite speakers are you referring too? The side surrounds (speakers 4 & 5) or the rear surrounds (speakers 6 & 7) ?
