I have a 58" vizio v series with a 5.1 surround sound system and the playstation 5 setup. For some reason the screen goes completely black for 2-5 seconds and when the screen comes back on, "hdr 10" pops up on the top right of the screen. Sometimes it loses the signal completely. That's the...

Page 10 of my vintage Yamaha HTR 5830 User Manual shows the connection of an external video monitor to the Monitor Out socket. I understood that this would enable display of the OSD setup menu, but I cannot get it to work. Please help: how to display the setup menu on any monitor, as truly the...

Hello all, New to the forum and hoping for some direction regarding of my issue. 
I recently moved my home theater surround sound from one area to another in the family room and mounted the TV. Here's the old equipment/setup: Pioneer VSX-917 (2 HDMI, 1 optical TV/Sat, 1 digital out optical, and...

I have used REW over many years, but not for the last 6-8 years. I want to re-calibrate my sub (four x 15" in an infinite baffle). I have downloaded the latest REW, but am using old equipment - EMM6 mic into a XENYX803 pre-amp, and then into a Sound Blaster Creative Digital Music LX connected to...

Hello everyone. I'm in the process of building a home and want to add a theater room. I talked to the Magnolia guys at Best Buy and they gave me list of audio/video components to buy that are within my budget. I plan on mostly using the room dark and watching movies, but may also use it with...

Hi all, I'm looking to get my first projector for a living room. I read through the guide in the sticky section. I have NOT bought a projector yet :) My living room is basically square but open on one side. It's about 15ft from one wall to the other. It has a few windows and there is ambient...

For my birthday I am upgrading my system. I just got a 75" 4K LG UHDTV, and I have some Bose surround speakers for the sides and back. I want to use my 2 channel Hi-Fi system for the front two channels. It's a very high grade component stereo with an electronic low pass bi-amp setup of Dahlquist...

Hi everyone. Please can you direct me to a guide on how to setup my AV. I have followed Audyssey step by step using 8 positions, changed large to small speakers. Crossover changed to 80. It just doesn't sound the best. Example, surround is too dramatic with vocals being lost, bass too low, night...

Hi guy's Just about to move into a new house and thinking about my new listening room, or should I say what's going to be my room! The room is approximately 5mts square, I know it's not ideal but we have to work with what's there. Two walls are unrendered brick, another wall is plaster board...

I am trying to purchase my first projector. We have a dedicated room with no windows. I have been dreaming about the LG HU80KA. I just measured my wall for a 150" screen. Oh...my... That's so big. I don't think I realized. I'm wondering if there are resources for how far away to sit and how far...

Just bought a Denon AVR-X1500H to replace my blown Onkyo. I need to know which modes give the best experience. I have a standard 7.1 speaker setup in a dedicated home theater. My sources are DVDs, Blu-ray DVDs, CDs, TV and some AC-3 content. I'm particularly interested in the new (for me)...

Came here searching for an audio system for a projector as the other good sir did. But as I see, there is still no reply. I already have a projector (Optoma EH200ST, if it's crucial) and a basic screen (DIY). What I need now is a good (and cheap) home theater system. After reading this topic and...

Hi, I have been successfully using my calibrated mic with .frd file in REW for some years. It corrects for frequency response, but I assumed it doesn't correct for sensitivity / SPL. However, I recently came across a message in REW that I don't need to go through the sensitivity calibration...

I'm just considering whether to use REW to conduct more in-depth room acoustic measurements. Although I'm qualified in acoustics and audio technology, this is somewhat new territory for me. I've done some reading and I understand the basics. I'm interested only in measuring the impulse response...

Hi, I'm in the construction fase of a new house and want to setup a nice surround experience. - It's not a dedicated home theater but my 'standard' TV room that the whole family will use, most of the time for standard tv shows but where I also want to enjoy a good movie from time to time. -...

Hey fellas, so I'm thinking about switching to a projector setup. I'm hoping to only run one long HDMI cord to the opposite side of the room. The thing is, I want to hook up a sound bar, PlayStation, and firestick. What are my options for this? Oh and I'm hoping not to have to buy a receiver...
