  1. There are arc systems for sale on eBay for $50-60. Posted 9/16.
  2. Over the past 6-12 months I've read that some of you are in search of an Anthem ARC room correction set up. eBay has a seller who has approx 10 for sale at $50/60. FYI.
  3. There are some anthem ARCs for sale on eBay, approximately 10, same seller, for 6 different models. I've seen various postings looking for ARCs so I figured I'd notify the community.
  4. Really nice dedicated home theater space....... I like the size, I only wish I had that much space to work with. Thanks for sharing.

    Decoupling my walls and ceiling......decided to go all the way and do it right. Had to run Auralex at 16" since ceiling and wall joists are at 24" (Basement).
  6. Thanks everyone for the responses and feedback. I'll stay with the kW-120s and not the buttkickers. You've all been very helpful and it's what I needed to make a final decision. Got to love forums and members like you all. Thanks!!!
  7. Thanks everyone for the throwback hotel visits from 70/80's, it brought back some bad and cheesy memories. I also appreciate the thoughts and perspective Scrappydue, I thought that they were a bit gimmicky but thought that maybe it was just me. I do have four kw-120's and I'll look to move them in pairs in a couple of areas (front and side rear) to perhaps gain same affect without all the buttshaking. I'd just hate to complete job and regret making this choice while I'm still in the process.
  8. I'm in the processor completing my Home Theater and want to know if I should waste my money on Buttkickers"? I'm using 4 Klipsch KW-120's and love, love, love the bass it delivers but am curious if this is worth the investment. Your thoughts, suggestions or ideas are greatly appreciated.
  9. Good day sir, As previously stated, your instincts are on point, a salesman or installer will almost always try and get you to buy their product. I happen to own a THX ultra2 system which "MichaelandKlipsch" turned me on to and OMG it's the best I've heard. Now I'm partial to Klipsch and have invested quite a bit but they're freakin awesome, you just won't be disappointed. I had the same experience with installers but luckily I have a great friend who's in the process of helping me with my new HT (see my gallery) and I decided to do all the work myself. I do agree with a previous callout, post your location and you may find someone local who can guide you or make a great recommendation or help install.
  10. Jim, First and foremost you have to file a claim with PayPal (if used) and eBay. If you win and I can't see why you wouldn't you'd get a full refund including your original shipping. I've had two claims in 10 years with PayPal and have always received a full refund. Ship ups ground or some other option and bite the bullet to ship back. If at the end of the day you go through the trouble and you still aren't happy you'll only get a refund for what you paid and not for your time and troubles. The great thing is that PayPal will side with you if you can prove and give you the full refund even before you ship back, they'll then ask the seller to contact you to reclaim their item which you could then handle but you don't have to wait to ship for full refund. I've played hard ball and have forced a seller to pay for shipping or shipped COD back to them.
  11. We'll see, that may be an option if I don't like the exposed speakers, fortunately I can order the screen from stewart, unfortunately it costs $2700.00 additionally.

  15. Welcome......... Awesome HT, you really payed close attention to the detail. I really like the attached photos which will be useful for my current build. Thanks for sharing your awesome theater.
  16. Thanks Scrappydue, I think I will as last resort since they were still real expensive with me having an account. YouthMan, any info you can provide will be helpful, it's worth a shot.
  17. Keysersoze, first, I love the name and what a great movie.... Check out Bose 791's, which can also be heard at most BestBuy stores, etc. They have a crisp sound and good mids and base. http://www.bose.com/controller?url=/shop_online/speakers/stereo_speakers/791_speakers/index.jsp I love their customer service, warranty which is above most and their quality is as good as some of my klipsch speakers. They also offer a 12 month no interest program to purchase direct from them.... Check em out, you'll agree that they sound great and worth every cent. I'm sure many higher end units will sound better but these are great ones too.
  18. Good day everyone, I'm in search of a shipping company that will ship 2 movie poster light boxes at a reasonable cost.....can you make a recommendation? I've found many on web that are way too expensive and I'm looking for one that will do more reasonably. 2 boxes weighing in at 40lbs each. I already have a lightbox but was looking to add 2 more. Thanks in advance.
  19. Pretty awesome, thanks for sharing........it was great to see this type of post.
  20. I'd consider one of two options, 1. Walk away and 2. Go through the transaction and leverage PayPal if item is not as described, etc. The down side to #2 is the time it takes for seller to respond to the claim with PayPal but in the end will prevail and you'll get a full refund. I'm not sure that you wouldn't be hit with negative feedback from seller if you walked away because you first have to prove he breached or it will look like you're a non paying bidder.
  21. Sherlock Holmes...... I didn't think that I'd like but loved the movie! I wasn't a Robert Downey Jr fan but he changed that with this movie.
  22. Awesome looking room, I love the creativity with your home (pond room and HT)....I really look forward to your finished HT,I'll keep checking back to see the progression and/or finished room. Thanks for sharing!
