Reel Home Theater BLOG 11-23-08

Hello and welcome to the Reel Home Theater BLOG. This is where you can keep track of what we're up to on a daily basis.

We completed a 7.2 great room home theater system today in Sunbrook. Our clients  just moved to town from Orem and were wonderful to work with. This is one of the most spectacular-sounding rooms we've had the pleasure of calibrating to date. One look at the graph of the full-room, all speaker response from the prime listening position (below) says it all. This is what we call a "Goose Bumps" room. Listening to music or movies, even at very low volume, will actually give everyone "goose bumps." We believe the effect is due to the almost flat frequency response and accurately-timed speaker delays.

Equipment from Reel Home Theater = 3 Canton (German) in-wall front speakers. 4 Canton in-ceiling surround speakers.  Client's previous equipment = 2 Energy subwoofers (1 front of room, 1 rear of room), Onkyo TX-SR803 7.1 AV receiver. All speakers were timed to within .2 ms of each other with our Sencore equipment.

Paint-Matched Canton In-wall 500 LCR by Reel Home Theater

We, at Reel Home Theater,  paint all of our in-wall / in-ceiling speakers to perfectly MATCH your existing color. See the sample above.

The Panasonic TH-58PZ850U is SPECTACULAR!

Our client purchased this Panasonic TH-58PZ850U plasma from another store and asked us to install it. We are very happy to say "The Panasonic TH-58PZ850U plasma is one of the finest TVs we've had the pleasure of working with." It worked flawlessly for the entire week we worked on the theater. It's picture was spectacular with all sources. We highly recommend it, along with the Pioneer Kuro plasmas over any LCDs made today. It has a rugged, full-metal back case and 4 silent cooling fans (we truly could not hear them).

EASY Home Entertainment Automation System

We completed today's project by delivering the most important feature of any home entertainment system to our client... a 1, 2-Touch Control System.

This is the Universal Remote Control MX-880 1-hand remote and MRF-260 RF receiver and IR emitter kit. This kit provides FLAWLESS no-point, 1 or 2-button operation for our clients. For example, if you want to watch satellite you press 1-WATCH, 2-SATELLITE. The automation system does the rest of the work...flawlessly every time. If you want to turn the entire system OFF, simply press the single OFF button in the top right corner of the remote. This system is truly "1-Button EASY."
