  1. I actually use Sketchup, which I designed the theater in. After I designed it, I gave the information to Reaper over at the AVS forums and he rendered it for me and I believe he used Blender which is free software. Blender is way complicated, at least to me, but Reaper does plenty of work over at AVS if you wanted to see more of his work or maybe even use him. Hope that helps!
  2. I'm planning on either having a grill somewhere on the wall so I can climb back there to tool around with the setup or I will be going the same route as you with the grills. I know these speakers dont need much power, but what is recommended for them? Would 200/channel be too much for them? Thanks.
  3. Hey thanks for the response! Im talking about the KW-120 that goes with the Ultra2 system. In Home Theater Magazine's review they state: Connection: NL2 SpeakOn. I researched it and I guess there are NL2 cables for this, idk, but i've never heard of it. I havent bought the subs yet and although I was set on SVS subs I am definitely going with the 2 KW-120's. The false is going to be identical to this one: The dimensions might not be the same as mine but I am modeling my wall after this. After that step, Im just wrapping it with Guilford of Maine fabric. If I got the Ultra2 system I would mount them in the wall where they would be flush in front so I can cover them with the fabric. Do you think all the space behind the LCR channel's will be troublesome because werent these supposed to be for a small space? Thanks for the suggestion about the IB subs but I really am not a DIY guy and I really wouldnt have time to do that. Thanks again for your help and I still would like to see any pictures of these speakers installed and any other feedback you want to give on them.
  4. Also, there is one more thing I noticed. I have already prewired the room and for the subs I ran two Bettercables Sub cables (RCA) to the front of the room and I noticed the Klipsch subs use a different connector. How am I going to overcome that obstacle?
  5. As you can tell, im new here, and Im having trouble finding information on the Ultra 2 THX system. I hang out over at AVS and there is maybe 2 guys with these speakers, and after searching over here (horrible search engine btw) it seems they are a rarity here also. If there is someone who owns this sytem, can you help me out with some pictures, how you like them, and what you are powering them with? My dedicated theater is all ready to build the stage/risers and install the equipment and Im at a crossroads with the speakers. My room is 21.7'L x 12.7'W x 9.6'H which cuts down to about 17-18ft once the false wall is built. This is the room rendered except the back left opening is open, no door like the pic.. Also, there is no step down into the room like in the picture, there is a ramp on the other side of the door. (sorry about the big picture): Right now the room is done and the frame for the stage is built but im waiting on buildling the false wall because it will be built around the speakers. As you can tell from the render, I had planned on going with plain ol' floorstanders behind the false wall (stud skeleton covered in transparent fabric) but after tons of reading, it seems the Klipsch Ultra 2 THX system would be for me as I am building a "custom" theater. My final question is if I place the Ultra 2's in the false wall with the 2-3 foot space behind behind the wall, how will that affect the sound? Will that be ok? How about for the Ultra 2 subs? The entire front wall will be covered with linacoustic and the side and rear wall will have linacoustic up to ear level, all covered in GOM (Transparent fabric) Any advice you can give me would be awesome, Thanks!
