    Maybe because it was delivered in comic book form by a comic book character, that could be possible why. You read one thing, I am reading another.



    Again, and for the umpteenth time my response was:
    And for the umpteenth time I am saying your lack of experience with custom install is making you think this is harder than it is. It's been done too many times before without all of the hassle you are putting into this,.



    I wasn't addressing YOUR "baffle" bit, I was responding to the poster...I said nothing re: In-wall, flush mount, infinite baffle or ANY variation thereof...The poster said he wanted to build a wall...I saw NOTHING that indicated your "baffle" concept was his intent...
    I proposed two scenarios which have recently been converted to drawings as .jpegs...namely examples #2 and #3...and consequently THAT IS WHAT I ADDRESSED...has it clicked yet?
    The poster wanted his speakers HIDDEN not EXPOSED like you keep doing over and over again. HE DOESN'T WANT THE SPEAKERS TO BE SEEN,

    thinking about how a false wall would effect the audio sound?

    Reason I'm thinking about a false wall is with my tower speakers 20" deep and wanting a front projector, i feel that the towers will look out of place between a screen mounted on the wall.

    I think when you put a box around the speaker the bass increases. If that is true would a false wall 2-3 feet deep have the same effect. would the false wall effect anything else?


    " I feel that the towers will look out of place between a screen mounted to a wall"

    He is saying what you keep proposing would look out of place to him. He mentions putting a wall AROUND his speakers. You are attempting to change what he is proposing because I don't think you really can picture what he wants.




    What exactly don't I get?...It's a friggin' variation of the older-than-dirt infinite baffle concept and practice, as I have stated all along...AGAIN, not what I saw as HAVICs question...
    You don't seem to understand the concept of his speakers in a wall. You seem to think that speakers have to be specially built for this purpose, and most speakers can be adopted for this purpose





    Is it a baffle or a monolith?...A monolith is a single, stand-alone entity(see .jpeg #3)...a baffle is not. A baffle creates an "artificial" perimeter and a completely distinct interior space...things can be mounted in, or flush with the surface of, your baffle...a monolith by definition simply IS what it is, like an obelisk or the big, black thing in "2001"...there is "no" interior...Do try to learn the distinction...
    So you mean to tell me that no cutouts can be made to accomodate his speakers in a monolith wall? Whatever wall he wants he wants it to be 2-3ft thick which would accomodate his speakers which only have a 20" depth. HE DOESN'T WANT HIS SPEAKER SEEN!!





    Quite simply...that's pretty much due to the fact that HAVICs question, AS I READ IT and his responses to my questions(which led me to that understanding) had ab-so-lute-ly nothing to do with with any sort of baffle, THX-certified or not...
    'thinking about how a false wall would effect the audio sound?

    There is nothing in this question that states that he wants his speakers in the room. Why would he ask about putting a box around a speaker if that was not his intention? HE WANTS HIS SPEAKERS HIDDEN NOT EXPOSED!!



    jimHJJ(...any issues I may have had with your responses are completely superfluous to the posters inquiry...)
    You really haven't addressed the poster inquiry at all. You are too busy superimposing your views over what he is asking.
