I picked this up for $1500 Cdn , $500 off Boxing Day sale at Costco. I haven't run through a calibration yet but the picture looks much better in the black level than by my 7 yr old 47" Vizio. I thought a curved screen was a Samsung gimmick but it really does improve upon the viewing angle...

Electronics manufacturers have aggressively attacked the soundbar market space for a number of years, hoping to get into the pockets of consumers looking for better sound without sacrificing floor space and running wires. For a non-primary system, soundbars can offer a significantly improved...

I finally decided to build a new screen for myself (XD material is on the way). I now need to choose if going curved is right for me. The screen will be a 2.35:1 and will be 115" wide. The screen is almost as wide as my room (about 6" on each side remaining). There is a chance I'll be making an...

I've been enjoying my 21" DIY sub for 4 years now, but I've hit a problem. The other day I was doing some rewiring in my audio rack and I think I accidentally turned up the gain on the ep4000 powering my sub. I was taking a shower with the system turned to the maximum I would normally turn...

Hello there HTS'ers, It's been a while since I've built anything aside from a quick and easy DIYsoundgroup Volt-10 surround build using flat packs. Those have been in place as my temporary front speakers since I sold my entire Polk Audio setup earlier this year. I want my entire system to be...

I ordered one this morning! 105" wide 2.35 acoustically transparent. I was told 4 weeks and I will have it. I will share my impressions since it was this forum that led me to Jamestown

I have a small home with just a corner for stereo and television. I built Fried Transmission Line speakers in my youth and now that I'm retired wanted to build an "entertainment cabinet" and speakers again. I have about a 42" corner and that's all I can allocate for space. I got some good...

Hi All, I'm thinking outside the box a little for my next project, a curved baffle centre channel. After searching this forum for curved baffle speakers, the only thread that came anywhere near to what I want to do is the wine barrel subwoofer by Mark DN, but it's the barrel that's the common...

Well, I suppose I will finally start posting my build that I've been working on for a while. I was planning to hold out until it is completed but the HTS site has started to give me "words of encouragement" at the top of the page every time I log on. I had originally set out to build two sealed...

This past January, LG and Samsung put some curved OLED TVs on display at the 2013 CES. Now, LG has announced that their curved screen TVs will, later this year, hit the U.K. market. Does curved OLED provide an immersive viewing experience? Because of the smaller screen size of the TVs, in...

Anyone ever built a curved 16:9 with success? Wondering what could be done to offset the edge flare, or if I'm out of luck.

Planning on constructing a DIY, curved screen. Frame will be wood, substrate will be sintra or other foamcore board, with canvas adhered to that. Will be a 5x8' size. Any reason BW wouldn't be a good choice for a rolled on paint?

How do you Calculate a curved cabinet. 18W x 19H x 19D similar to "Warpdrv's Custom" build ??

My speaker building project. About 12 years back a bought some ******** tree planks that was cut from huge old trees (older then a 100 years according to town folks that know some of their history). The piece of land was bought for the development of an church so some of them were cut down and...
