My fiance is very open to my projects, and she doesn't mind my sense of aesthetic.

I'll be updating with better photos as I finish up details and add more room treatments (and build my new Maelstrom-X 21" ). These photos are from earlier this year, and I've just not had time to finish building diffusers, absorbers, running CAT6 cables, and touch up painting all the mess I've made! :sad:

I live in a small renthouse nearby Amsterdam.

just about 3 years ago this was what you will see and listen to.






















then my tv went to sleep forerver and the company profided me with a smaller lcd screen.
smaller and hooked on a wall, so smaller and further away.







as you might see, there is a bigger subwoofer between the frontspeakers then the TS8 wich was placed in a corner on the otherside of the room.





and then the real adventure started, obtaining some PA cabinets to use the driver and build a residential model for it...
to do this i had to find a nice driver, offcourse a Tannoy DC driver, a driver with the original T/S parameters. so the planning could start without the drivers in hand..
this was a few months ago....

first a started with 3 times a 12 inch dual concentric, to use as front and center.



as you can see, the 12" on the right side is standing on a Rel subwoofer.
the Rel acompanies the frontspeakers, a bit overkill...

speaking of overkill,....
the 'new' frontspeakers arived.



and the front moved to the back...



so the new front lookes like this.



and the overall view...



just arived...

:rofl:

and as you can see at the surroundspeaker photo, there are some cables going up to the ceiling...

the lcd sceen seemed to small afterall, but a big tv is big bugs..!
and now i have some holes in the ceiling, a few for the beamer and a view for the automatic screen..










and now i have to go and do something, i will contineu posting tonight... ]]> Home Theater Gallery Tannoy http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/home-theater-gallery/22442-hardstyle-holland-spl-scrapheap.html http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/home-theater-gallery/22432-htpc-mini-itx-home-theater-2ch-hybrid.html Mon, 02 Nov 2009 15:17:25 GMT With the preparations for our 2nd child came the need to move everything out of the listening room, and into the living... With the preparations for our 2nd child came the need to move everything out of the listening room, and into the living room, where we never had so much as a TV.

I sold my old HTPC which I had built around a Uneed X11 case and a Q6600 quad core which ran at 3gHz x 4.

My objective was to build a new HTPC with very low wattage, small form factor, 1080P capability, and room for a pro-sumer sound card.

So far, so good.

HTPC: mini-ITX PSILE (125w PSU, 64GB SSD, 5TB SATA ADDONICS, Win7 x64, 1616M self-powered)
GUI: J. River MC14
Audio & Video formats: FLAC/APE/MKV/DVD
Preamp: Peachtree Nova
Power Amp: Eastern Electric 6BM8 power amp (8 watts)
Speakers: Omega 3i & Demp Hemp Sub
Cables: Yacco, StereoVox, & Clear Day cables
Blu-Ray: Oppo BDP-83
Tuner: Pro-Ject Tuner (mini)
Remotes: Gryation LCD & iPhone 3GS (Rivermote & Intelliremote apps)

Doing w/o NAS

Rather than use an NAS and deal with some network load time issues during tagging files I went with an Addonics box where I house 5 1TB drives. I do backups via eSata enclosure manually. The other PCs in the house can use J. River's library server to stream audio or video. Sometimes I use my primary laptop to tag files when the HTPC or TV is in use.

Zone Control

I use my iPhone or my Gyration in-air remote to control the PC. The Peachtree Nova has a power amp which feeds the outdoor speakers (outdoor volume control or iPhone). I use the pre-out on the Nova to feed the power amp and the Omega speakers. So if I want to listen outside, I simply make sure my power amp is off and let my son or wife use the TV speakers via HDMI. One of the many amazing tools J. River offers is the ability to use zones. Each zone can be attached to a unique sound device. So my iPhone can access my ASIO EMU 1616M zone while my wife and son watch Planet Earth via the Realtek HDMI zone inside.


Home Theater

I use J. River because it allows my to full customize all my DirectShow filters (codec control) for my video. I can utliize DXVA (graphics hardware acceleration) for most compatible H264 files, but sometimes need to use the CoreAVC codec; MC14 offers the flexibility to make all this work. FFDshow usually takes care of downmixing to 2.0 unless a DVD is playing; I typcailly use the Nvidia codecs but have Dscaler5 is one of the best too.

The Room

I still plan on doing some room analysis when I get my calibrated Dayton mic. Using the 1616M currently for both playback & digital RIAA implementation of phonograph input, it should prove useful to test with REW (Room EQ Wizard). The room is very interesting in its geometry. It needs more treatment (we need to get the curtains back up) and maybe some panels, but it's non-symmetrical nature should prove to be friendly for the sonics (definietly a still a little hot right now).
