AHall Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 I have a pair of heresy 1’s I am going to redo the cabs and recap. One needs a new 12” driver. I was wondering if it’d be worth it to convert to super heresy while I’m redoing them. They will be used on their side on a shelf in the back of the room. I was wondering for this application if it would be more impactful in HT to have some extra bass back there. Or if the port could be moved to the front. Surrounds are cornwall 1’s that may eventually be converted into cornscalas or receive a 510/k691. Mains are jubes. Center will be a belle LF with 510 top end.

Jan.2000 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Very nice setup!! Don't think there is a need for some extra bass in the back of the room. Do you plan to add subs? I was planning to have Heresy's all the way, when I build my HT last year. Finally I choose for some LaScala 1 as main and a Cornwall 1 as centre speaker. The only place, I kept my Heresy 1 was in the back. The room was simple too small to have also Heresy 1's as surround. For extra bass, there are 4 KW-120's. That's how it looks like... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a kpt-1802-hls up front. I’ll likely build a tuba htlp for the rear of the room to balance the room modes out. I was just thinking since im building new boxes and crossovers anyway, that would be the time to pick the different drivers and crossover design.

Jan.2000 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 That sounds pretty awesome. You definitely don't need extra bass in the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Care to elaborate a little more on your room treatment? I’m trying to figure out some diffusers that aren’t horrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan.2000 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Well in principle it's a room in room construction in the basement of my house (approx 13' x 29' x 9.5'). Regarding diffusers, the ceiling is skyline diffuser (Sonitus Bigfuser), while flutterfree diffusers (EQ Acoustics QR Diffuser ) are used on the wall. Some more details of my home theater build ...
