How to setup a home theater system


Hey guys,

I know most of you are experts in the field, but I wrote an article on how to setup a basic home theater system for those looking for very basic advice and a couple of hand sketched connection diagrams:

I Agree completely bro...even I don't sometimes agree fully with what I write. Also, I was comparing the sensitivity of speakers to human beings. Its like getting in touch with our sensitive side when we read something we don't agree with....Thanks anyway for your best wishes and for taking the time to read my article.
Weeeeell..sounds like someone is all in a bunch, and full of their decades worth of experienced self! Hoohohohooooo!
Case anyone cares, my experience in this industry has proven to me that there are people working decades now in the AV business (hands on working with the gear, even) WHO ARE NOT COMPETENT ENOUGH (They didn't really want to learn)TO PROPERLY DESIGNING, ENGINEER, AND CALIBRATE EVEN AN ENTRY LEVEL TO QUALITY MID-FI AUDIO/VIDEO SYSTEM, LET A LONE AN AMBITIOUS HIGH END HT SETUP!

I have personally gone in and re-engineered and calibrated entire systems, which so called "industry professionals" custom integrators and retail salesguys -some with over 20 years of trained licensed and bonded sysetem install experience and product training - WHO'S OWN SYSTEMS WERE ENGINEERED AND CALIBRATED SO POORLY, THAT YOU'DA THOUGHT A 16YR OLD KID WORKING AT BEST BUY SET IT UP! (the kids probably woulda done a better job, honestly!)
Basically, someone's experience doesn't necessarily tell the whole story! (All the world renouned double PHD physicists that were around when Einstein was living, all thought they knew it all and were special too...then Einstein basically proved that these Ivey league blow-hards actually knew very little, in reality!)

If anyone wants to know, then find out yourself. I have yet to find any two audioenthusiests, audiophiles, or system design guys who share the very same sentiments, tastes, or opinions! That's, again, why everyone has a different system, setup, and gear!

My point of view, his/her opinion, or their experience of someone elses tastes and perspectives, may or may not be mutually agreed upon positions. Gotta learn this stuff on your own, and play around really. STICK TO YOUR GUNS! LOL!
To "Avgoround", I only mention my experience to show that there are many people on this site, including yourself, who have much more experience then the ten years that the OP has and who are very helpful in sharing knowledge and experience. I, as well as others, have mostly pointed to the fact that insulting the very group that he is asking for help from is non productive. I find it curious that instead of helping the OP with advise and feed back you decided to yell at me.

To sum up, why don't you use your extensive experience of saving countless people from crappy set ups to help the OP'r save countless more. If you do not, than it will be fairly safe to assume that you are nothing more than a shill that derives his so called "expertise" from deriding everyone elses knowledge, experience and training.

Good luck to both of you.
Can you say ISSUES, boys and goils?!? I think ya can! WEELLLL AAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL RIGHTY THEN!...

First off, I wasn't talking to you JJrenman, I must have been refering to someone else!. THAANKKKS THERE, ISSUE-MAN!
Second, I don't need to tell people what's up cause, really, all they just want is some stimulating conversation here on these postings, and something else to do after the spankter-vision sessions end! Lol.
When you really get down to it, the only people who really want a high performance system, pay the big bucks for it! The few enthusiests posting to forums like these really care about is what new eceiver or bluray player to buy next! .. and what everyone else thinks about it.
I gotta be honest wit meself and says dat no one here REEEEALLY cares! We're just filling time here..waiting for the next greate financial apocalypse.
I'm certain there'll be even better deals on used gear around then, no?
