  1. Audio Processing
    Hi, I wonder how many users of Dolby PLIIz are out there. Have those who use it ever noticed a considerable higher sub level compared to PLIImusic or PLIImovie? And if so, which receiver are they using? Curious how Atmos will behave in this regard.
  2. REW Forum
    I know what I am trying to do is out of the scope of the REW program, but maybe it can be done. What a im trying to do is to measure the stability(gain margin and phase margin) of a control loop like in the picture below. To do this I need a swept generator and two measurement channels. I...

    when is it better to use room gain compensation instead of PEQs? assuming one has enough PEQs, can't room gain be controlled with PEQs? Having just got my first of hopefully 2 SB13u, i've left the room gain control alone, and done all my tuning using PEQs, but am wondering if I'd be better...

    Hi all, I don't usually post in this forum, but here's my situation and considering recommendations. My system is basically a 2.1 audio-only. I run a source (DAC) to a stereo preamp (actually a mini headphone tube amp that works well for the purpose) -> MiniDSP 2x4 for highs/lows. In this case...

    So, took all my measurements for each speaker, and my sub. Awesome. Ran auto eq as suggested with 1/6 smoothing, and removed any gains less than -3 or +3, ensured no really high q's... so far so good! Working on my sub... STUCK. My Sherbourn PT-7030 only allows for gains of up to +3... Any...

    Hello Folks, I wonder if anyone knows this. First a pet peeve, I wish sites like Projector Central would list a projectors lumens on their optimum setting (unless of course the "review" it in which case we see the lumens spread) Ex. The Panny AE8000 doesn't push out 2400 lumens on its...

    Is it odd that my XT32 setup for the Onkyo tx-nr929 would set a positive gain on all 9 channels? If they're all set at above zero db, couldn't they (shouldn't they) all be proportionately lower? -or does that represent the gain needed to boost up a somewhat larger room to actually achieve...

  9. REW Forum
    Is there a way to use REW to figure out how much room gain I'm getting? I'm in the process of looking for a new sub, or a pair of subs, and understand sealed designs rely on room gain to boost the lowest frequencies. I'm wondering if there's a way to use REW to figure out how much room gain...

    is this a good fit for a JVC HD350 projector? Lighting is controlled with my current setup Screen Innovations 1.0 /120" screen. Screen is washed out when light are on so thinking about about purchasing the SI /1.4 gain screen and then replacing projector in a year or two. Thoughts? thanks,
  12. DIY Subwoofers - General Discussion
    Hey guys, I've just purchased my first sub (well not exactly first, but I haven't had one in more than 10 years), and I'm in the process of integrating it into my 2 channel system (which also serves as HT system). I'm hoping that you can help me get things properly set up. My system...

    Nak what would your prediction be for gain on sw and also glidden 450 diamond Nak you've seen both side by side and you've done some comparisons between the two what would you think the gain is on each one just from a visual point of view. I might need to bring up my gain once I do 135". Going...

    The question is: How much light do i get back in the end? Ok, let's start with the theory....according to wbassett: ''gain is the ratio of brightness of your projection screen material to a white standard such as barium sulfate or magnesium carbonate. These materials are used by the industry...

    I've got a JVC RS20 and I'm finding that I'd like a little more brightness. I only have 500 hours on the lamp, but it seems a bit dim. My screen is a Sintra 120" 2.35:1 screen, but unpainted. I'd like to paint it or do something to it to get more gain, but without sacrificing much color...

    Hi! I just purchased a BenQ EP5920 and am currently looking at an Elite Screens ER120GH1 120" screen with 1.8 gain. I've been trying to research the effective difference between a 1.0 and 1.8 gain screen and am leaning towards the 1.8. My throw distance will be 16'7" for a total of 31FL on a...
