Best THX moments in the cinema

[Brainstorm]

Holy Markel I thought I’d seen a few THX installations this tops it!

LOL you sure that ain’t an IMAX screen granted the width is less. Very impressive I’m already getting ideas. WOW!



I can see the mid range and high range and what appears horn loaded bass cab for each of the five-screen array the sub bass array and extra top or height to give dimension to the sound like in real life.

I was suspicious at first about Klipsch in the commercial cinema market but after installing and spending alot of time listening to Klipsch systems I can understand why we sell so much of there equipment and why they account for so many of the new installs. I am convinced they are the leader in commercial cinema loudspeakers. JBL is good stuff but Klipsch is a cut above.

Regal, Malco, Harkins, and Krikorian all use Klipsch exclusively. I will be working on a new install starting on 2-26 in Arizona so I will take some pics and post them when I get back.

Looking forwards to seeing them here JBL has been around 80 years now and still going strong. But after seeing this set-up, dear lord. I’ve toyed around with some films like Goldeeye and Apollo 13 with a what I call an upper height centre channel that gets its source signal from the left and right or centre phantom. When passed though a Dolby pro-logic processor certain types of sound effects of dialogue that is sent to left and right in-phase really gives the film a different approach in the home.

But 10.2 is totally discrete when its going to be made affordable for all homes that’s the question. I mean they haven’t even got there act together with 7.1 for the yet let alone 10.2.

60KW well looks like Empire has got a challenge over its 56KW, they always try for more power don't they.

“Mr. Scott I need more power!”

“She can’t, take no more she’s starting to breaking up"!

Granted this maybe a home cinema version even the owner here has done right with installing in the THX baffle wall for video projection, except I can’t see the high frequency absorbent on the wall to stop the high frequencies bouncing of the screen and back onto the wall.



Still that’s the approach I’d take when I get a video projector.
