RC-64 Clarity


Hypoxia

It did improve the sound quite a bit. I was tempted to turn them upside down as was suggested but they are so heavy I didn't really want the workout. As far as the original reason I started this thread, RC-64 Clarity, I'm not sure yet. I watched Gettysburg last night & it sounded good so we'll see if other shows are the same.

You got me thinking about my center as well as my Yamaha so I played with it. I turned off DRC, and went to the equalizer and turned on the PEQ. It sounds a little clearer. But thats just me. You might give it a shot. It won't cost you anything.

You also have to take into account how the movie soundtrack was mixed. Some are far better than others I have a hot-rodded La Scala center and some movie soundtracks are just plain poorly mixed and no amount of software adjustments and physical placement will overcome a poorly mixed movie soundtrack. I do not trust the internal calibrations done by AV Receivers or AV Pre/Pro's I do it by ear with a disc, laser pointer, and SPL/RTA meter to dial it to my ears and not a condenser microphone.

I have watched many a movie that I have had to turn up to hear the center dialogue only to be pinned to the wall when an action sequence kicks in.

Glad you saw some improvement.
