Greetings to all PinoyDVD members! :D
Similar to many of you, most weekends I'd rather spend time with my wife & kids inside our own master bedroom (HT) & catch up with some DVD, HD DVD & Blu-ray movies watching at our own sweet time. To enhance our watching experience, it wouldn't be completed without some nice snacks & drinks besides us. :-* Usually, that's how we'd spend our quality & quiet time together over my rest-day. Due to my busy & hectic working schedule, there are still lots of unwatched/sealed DVD/BD/HD DVD. ;D
I would like to take this opportunity to share some recent (and old ones too) photos taken on my HT setup which is configured inside my master bedroom. No fancy setup, no THX ultra expensive audio equipment, no movie poster yet, etc... Simple lang ha. :)
Hope you will enjoy these few photos & pls do let me know if you have any question or require clarification. Thank you for taking the time to browse my little comfort zone. Have a nice day & cheers! 8)
Regards,
Paul :)

aldrinpsx, in that case you'll have to time your HD DVD purchase so that by the time BD player is released in May 23, your 30-day period is still valid. That means the earliest you could buy the HD DVD is on April 23? That's assuming there's no more delay in the BD launching. :D

Hi Redge...welcome aboard to my little Comfort Zone. :D
Standby for updates soon once I'm done with the cabinets. ;)
sir, are you 'buying' your cabinets or are you having it custom built?
Post by: pchin on Apr 23, 2006 at 08:57 PM
Unfortunately, some of the cabinets dimensions were not properly done. As a result, due to the different LE sizes, some can't fit into the cabinets. :-[ Guess I will just have to make the best use of them. :)

btw, when you get the time, comment naman sa HD player mo and new yamaha speakers - I'm interested in the 333 version kasi terno sa piano gloss finish ng tv ko.
1) big improvement ba yung HD player?
2) how far are you from your display?

2) how far are you from your display?
Thanks sanmig & mike :) Yes the Yamaha NS series with Black Piano Gloss Finish is attractive & will be a matching set esp for your HT that has black color. I will upgrade slowly once budget permits. The next one will be NS 444 & finally NS 333. ;)
To answer the above questions:
1. Oh yeah esp with my HDTV 720p, the clarity is obvious in view of its 3 times the resolution of standard DVD. :) Though the improvement won't be like day & night but if your eyes know where to scan the PQ, yep you can discern the pic has more details. Color is vivid & certain scenes- object is floating in 3D or you feel you can touch it na. ;D However, each HD movie PQ depends on its video transfer. Some movies have astounding PQ while others may only seem mediocre.
Also, at 1080p resolution, no doubt viewing at a bigger HD display, the clarity & effect will be more apparent.
2. The general rule of thumb of a comfortable viewing distance is about twice the diagonal screen size (1.5 times if you're using front projector). In my case, my HDTV is 42" so my viewing distance should be at least 84" or 7 feet. However, for general DVD viewing I usually sit about 8.5 feet from the display (depending on your preference & comfort level). :)

Wow, nice upgrade sir pchin. How's the performance of the Yamaha NS-555 Speaker? How much was it? It's one of my upgrade options because of the piano finish ;D. Matches very well w/ the Velo sub and Samsung LCD and DVD player. ;)
Thanks jojitv & juric. After using it & compared to my previous JBL bookshelf speaker (Frequency response 90Hz-22kHz, Sensitivity 86dB, Nominal Impedance 4 Ohms & smaller amplifier power), clearly it has no match against the NS-555. :D I selected this speakers due to its nice design (matching to my other HT gears), performance & affordable price (I can also upgrade slowly on the other NS series).

Great gears sir. Daming updates. I was contemplating on getting the NS series speakers last month then to complete the piano finish family but gave those up to get a bigger display. I'm disposing my NS-C444 center that could compliment your recent speaker upgrade pala posted in the B/S section. You may be interested. Very mint ;D.

Mike, you can order HD movies either directly from online stores such as Amazon or tru PARC in this forum at the DVD Market place (hassle free). PARC will deliver your order straight to your home or office by Air 21. :)

Both my SONY universal DVD player (to view DVD) & Toshiba HD player (to view HD-DVD & DVD Region 1 only) use HDMI. I got tire of keep swapping between the two cables so finally decided to get a HDMi switcher to solve the problem. No more messy unplugging & plugging na ;D
This will also free my mind from worrying in future should I get another device (e.g. PS3 :P ) that uses HDMI. :)

Suggestion: use it as subwoofer 2 UNDER your bed. If its powerful enough, it will function like a bed bass shaker. ;D
Post by: pchin on Mar 12, 2007 at 11:11 AM
The only problem is my bed has no "underneath" space eh :-[ so I can't put anything under it...what a shame! The bed is made of wood painted with white (pls refer to pic below) :(
(http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/3850/dsc030956fs.jpg)
Perhaps I can use it as a secondary subwoofer & place it in a corner for the time being :) Hmm... looks like now I have a valid reason to "upgrade" my bed..I'm sure my wife will be more than happy to agree this time ::)
Post by: MAtZTER on Mar 12, 2007 at 11:14 AM

Actually, everything will be dismantled (or shall I say be kept in box) this week. HT Renov (year-long ;D) will resume anytime so the setup I had last weekend, was really a weekend setup, just to get the feel of having a big/widescreen in our HT.

Post by: pchin on Mar 26, 2007 at 08:13 AM
Don't worry Emer, my wife says it's a good idea to install a dim light in the room (for me it's not just a "light"...it's THD light!!), at least our room won't be completely dark while watching our favourite movies (otherwise it would be too glaring from the TV) :)

Paul, I suggest you check out your room first for possible cracks due to extreme LFE, before you get a bass shaker. :P

Post by: sanmig_ph on Oct 03, 2007 at 10:59 AM
Someone used to PM me asking if he should buy a bass shaker. I merely told him to buy a good 12 in sub. He was very happy he followed the advice. A good 12" sub can also do what a bass shaker can do. Try the bass shakers in Daiichi Megamall if you like the experience. It was too unnatural for me & dizzying. :(
dati nag bass shaker din ako ng naka velo vx-10 pa, dumayo pa ako raon to buy sakura amp.
binenta ko din, not satiesfied bro , cht12 ganda ng performance,our house really rocks.

@ chuck427, If you love the Robotech series, you may want to try out the Robotech - The Shadow Chronicles Movie. Nice graphic :) The only Transformers animation DVD I have is the 20th Anniversarry. I got it after watching the live action Transformers movie just to satisfy my curiousity. ;D

Great set-up sir PCHIN - the best 720p / 1080i screenshots I have ever seen in PinoyD. Tips naman sir on how to get great screenshots.
On the Tom/Eric confusion...hehe... it was an honest mistake it seems. It was the hair and nose which gave it away. ;D
In the graphic below, just try covering each half one at a time to fully appreciate the other person. ;)

Ah now I can discern the similarities. No wonder streetsmart got mixed up.
Tips on greatting screenshots? Hmm...I guess using a DSLR does indeed help. No flash used when the images were captured. But I suppose a regular digital camera can do the same job as long as there's no flash involved. :)

@Marl_1, yes I saw your post in Dunedain's thread. Do give it a try & let me know how's the photo result. ;)
I hope that Marl_1 will be using Duracell batteries as opposed to Energizers. For some weird reason, the Duracell last longer in a Canon A540 as opposed to Energizers. With them best moments that one wants to capture with a mere digicam, the last thing one wants to see on that tiny screen (on the digicam) is the icon that means "low batt".

I really hate the Toshiba A35. Also each time power up there's the setup time page...so annoying. :-[ I'll stick to my A2 na lang :-\
Can't afford a good telescope yet so meanwhile I'm just using a my SLR zoom lens 70-200 as a relief...I'll get a binocular soon coz there are some swiming pools across the other condos...we'll never know if there's any "HOT OR NOT" gem :P

-1080p HD flat display
-a new HD AV receiver
-Replace all my 7.1 speakers
Whoa...those will cost a bom...nyak! :o :o

It's almost end of the year na...it seems my resolution for 2009 i.e. not to buy any new or upgrade any HT gears will be realized soon...luckily none of the gears broke down... ;)
It's certainly not easy as my hands are so itchy to upgrade/get new gears....but there's a way to overcome the situation....will reveal the secret in Jan 2010! ;D
great job sir!
one solution i can think of is to avoid logging into PDVD! incase you cant resist dont visit the gallery section ;D and the buy and sell thread :D
and dont go to sir mark's place for EBs and new friends, specially

Good morning sir Paul, did you find what you were looking for? The one for your pj? ;D i found some interesting lazy boy recliners in that mall. but, the one's i like is a bit expensive and have to save for that.. and that time my kid is already asking me to go home ;D ;D

Tnx Luther. Speaking of bobo, there is another case where six colums protruding from the walls...not the whole colums but portion of them exposed...really ugly. The one beside the entrance (as shown in the pic) is the biggest one. Oh geez... :-[

Hi Paul. All your equipment are up front? R u sure u have easy access to the rear of the equipment?
Hi Mark, thanks for the input. :) Yes, all the equipments will be kept inside the customized cabinet located in front of the PJ screen. The rear of the cabinet is open/expose for easy access. For added mobility/flexibility, beneath the cabinet will include built-in wheels. :)

sir Paul, those DVD cabs @ front corners are shelves type?.... di ba, those corners are best locations for bass traps? and shelves can be located at the rear wall to serve as diffusors as well. it's also more accessible to organize your collections... ;D ;D

Congratz!... ;) just my 2mamera.. :D
Hi Mon, thanks for the feedback. :) The front DVD cabinets shown in the layout are actually not at the front corners. All the four corners inside the room will be treated for bass traps. The DVD cabinet design isn't finalized yet but it won't be the usual open shelf type. Most probably it will be a closure type to blend into the whole wall otherwise it may stick out like a sore thumb. ;D
Yes, initially I intended to have the DVD cabinet shelves built into the rear wall as diffusors but unfortunately my room size limitation make it inaccessible esp after the second row seating is setup (too near the wall). Also, i have to deal with the columns problem. :( Hence, will provide separate diffusor treatments at the rear wall.
Speaking of the false wood columns, they aren't in the initial layout....hay to make a long story short...our architect made some bobo & the room ended up with five (5) protruding concrete columns with different sizes (pls see floor layout in Reply #366) ...really ugly. So, I just disguise the colums with fake wood columns....a total of six (6) to balance it out. :-[ Will see how it goes & in the future might treat them with wall acoustic panels.
Post by: audiojunkie on May 21, 2010 at 01:30 AM
Nice sir Paul... ;D
false columns is one way to keep the symetry of the room and could be part of the wall treatment... ;D
yes! I agree with you.. ;D the columns location and sizes were not studied carefully. it's one of the common mistakes in designs when the architect failed to coordinate properly with enginners. In practice, the architect should have the complete control of the project... :D

True... :-[ The contractor blames it on the architect's fault. They were just following the plan daw. Hay we also overlook it. :( Too bad the architect isn't around to defend his position as half way into construction, he has already vanished into thin air (that's another long story for another day). Luckily, he's not here to be afflicted with my wrath or else I will shoot him in the head! >:( Guess I have to live with the mistake...;D

Post by: pchin on May 25, 2010 at 04:30 PM
Since my carpenter isn't familiar with it, I just show him the image & ask him to copy the "Quadratic diffusor" type. Hope it helps... ;D
(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/91/Quadratic_diffusor.gif/220px-Quadratic_diffusor.gif) (http://www.primacoustic.com/pics/raz-diffuse.gif)
Quote from PrimAcoustic:
How much diffusion do you need? A good rule of thumb for rear wall diffusion is to cover the width of the listening position. In other words, if the seating area is six feet wide, diffusers along the rear wall should cover that width.
(http://www.primacoustic.com/pics/raz-diffuse-rear.gif)
The rear wall will be my main diffusers while on the two side walls- will add some diffusers as well (altenate with absorbers). It seems some opinions suggest that for a small room, it's better to use diffusers for the first reflective points to enhance the sound stage. For me, guess I'll stick to absorbers for the mid to high frequencies. Any thought on this guys?

Post by: streetsmart on May 26, 2010 at 09:04 AM
Now, if I were you ... i would delay the installation of the front diffusers. Test the audio first without the diffusers and then with the diffusers. Get a couple of Pinoydvd members to listen with you and decide which you prefer. The main problem with this is that if you use Audyssey MultEQ room correction, you will have to re-run it when you install the diffusers.
Good luck!

Hi Paul! Personally, i think that your idea of placing some diffusers along the front walls is a good idea. It should liven the room.

Hi Mark, thanks for the suggestion. For clarification, when you say "front walls" are you referring to all the three walls apart from the rear wall i.e. the two side walls (left & right) & the front wall (where the projector screen is located)?
My plan is to install both absorbers & diffusers on the two side walls (left & right) but not the front wall (will install absorber only. If needed later can add diffusers). However, I'm open to your suggestion.

I really mean the 2 side walls. They would have the biggest impact on the early reflections.

Bro. paul diba you are eyeing on Onkyo nr1007? check out the new onkyo nr1008 it's 3D ready and it has audyssey dsx enabled for both heights and wides ;) and i think it's more cheaper than the nr 1007 ;D
is this confirmed brader xtian? AFAIK and based from avsforum, only one receiver has the distinction of running both the wide and height at the same time and thats the receiver that sir mark has denon 4810. I maybe wrong though and would have to review the thread in avsfroum latert tonight. If this is the case, then its a very good reason to get a 1008 but i think there are some drawbacks too from getting a 1008 versus the 1007.

Yes but unfortunately other than the HDMI & 3D compatibility, it's a downgrade from the NR1007 in term of feature & power too. :-[ Looks like I will still eyeing for NR1007.

I think this is the case. User will able to select either Audyssey DSX wide or height but not both at the same time. Assuming the AVR can do both Audyssey DSX wide & height at the same time then essentially it's a 11.2-Channel AV Receiver. Furthermore, Onkyo's highest-end model has 9.2-channels only. :)

Ah Tirso bro I thought you're an Onkyo loyalist....how could you betray Onkyo? :P
im not buying hehehehehe. just throught of sharing a read i stumbled upon, find it surprising though that pioneer 1019 even beat the Onkyo 5007 as the best receiver but according to cnet only ;)
in case I upgrade, its just either Yammy AZ7 or Onkyo 5007. :)
Post by: pchin on Jun 09, 2010 at 12:57 AM
wow lapit na tapos. Congrats again!

Here are some of the HT plans & as it progresses there will be changes & modifications. :)
HT impression

*I will definitely replace all the colors. :P
HT floor layout

WOW !!!!! :o :o :o
another HT room in the works ..... can't wait to see the completed project.
Congratz in advance, Paul :D :D :D

Actual HT construction
(http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y276/pchin2/IMG_4470P.jpg)
Changes made:
-The shape of the cove is no longer curve. Straight cut lang kc the original curve is time consuming.
-There were two false colums only in the original layout but now ended up with six! We use the spare false colums to hide all the exposed concrete columns (There are 5 inside the HT room).
-The false colums design is modified a bit to give some details.

J-Tech Digital 2 Ports HDMI 1x2 Powered Splitter
Since my HDMI receiver has only one output, hence I need a HDMI splitter: one to my HDTV & one to my projector.

Why buy this Paul? when your soon to be Onkyo 1007 or (1008?) will have 2 HDMI out... ;D

I'm using it now for my existing AVR. As for the upgrade (hopefully it's the Onkyo 1007) will have to wait for a while...maybe by December. Waiting for my budget to recuperate after the HT construction. :)

Color samples....still deciding which color... ???
(http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y276/pchin2/IMG_4469P.jpg)
From left to right: Dark grey, Skin tone, Dark blue, Beige & Dark brown.
The pic doesn't reflect the actual color. It's a bit more saturated. Here, the beige looks like yellow & dark blue looks like black... :-[

Yes, too many color options making it hard to decide.... ;D

Will post some pics soon...geez...I'm having a hard time taking pics kc the room is so small & not enough distance resulting my camera 17-50mm lens can't fit in... I need an "Ultra Wide-angle" lens pa! Anyone has such lens? Perhaps I could borrow?? ;D
I will be happy to lend my 10-20mm Paul. Just let me know how you want to get it. ;)

Just had a mini EB at Pchin's place last night. Amidst the clutter of the unfinished house, the hometheater was done sans the screen. We know our priorities Paul huh? (http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/4.gif). The Panny AE4000 with the Frame Creation feature really made Avatar and Kungfu Panda look 3D-ish. Surround sound with Drag Me to Hell and Flight of the Phoenix was so realistic. The dual PB12 sub setup was in place + EQ1. (http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/13.gif) Trully a blast!
Sayang but we had to leave early. But definitely there will be a sequel! (http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/67.gif)
Thanks again Paul for the accomodation and the dinner! All I can say is....(http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/77.gif)

Post by: streetsmart on Dec 31, 2010 at 01:27 PM
I was really surprised by the DIY HT of Paul. I immediately knew that the room was very well-done because the audio sounded so good and yet, the speakers were pretty much entry level and in the case of the surrounds, pretty bad. The quality of the acoustics of the room lifted everything up. It's not evident from the photos but there are pretty serious bass traps in each corner, absorbers at each 1st reflection point and a lot of diffusers spread around. I think the result is excellent. Of course, the 2 SVS PB-12 NSD's, coupled with the SVS AS-EQ1 provided excellent, deep and tight bass. Pwede na HT designer si Paul.
I was also surprised by the video - a Panasonic AE4000 with a designer screen (actually plywood painted white with the exact shade of white decided on by Paul; temporary lang). I have calibrated an AE4000 but at the onset, I wasn't impressed with the pq. It was only after calibration that the pq improved significantly. Paul's pq, even without serious calibration, is already pretty good. Very deep blacks. High contrast ratio. Beautiful black detail. Pretty accurate colors. Sharp pic.
Overall, this is one of the best sounding and looking HT's I've seen. It can only improve once the screen arrives and the grayscale/gamma are calibrated. I can also see a serious speaker upgrade in the future!
Congrats to Paul for a job very well-done! :) :)

Yup, it's installed na last evening. ;D I was excited na to see the difference & expected to see "some" improvement but.... ::)
I will inform my wife it's not calibrated yet (that's why she won't able to see the difference now) but once done by the master the improved PQ will be obvious. Only a real PJ screen can be calibrated properly by an AV guru... :P
Nevertheless, I'm pretty sure the PQ will improve once you've done the calibration. ;)

What if we first calibrate the plywood? If the pq is good enough, you can just sell the new screen and at least reduce your costs (or save some money for the new SVS Ultra sub). ;D ;D ;D
Your wife is my friend and I don't really want to lie to her. Maybe your plywood screen is just as good as the screen which you waited 6 months for. ;D ;D ;D

I guess it doesn't sound nice telling people we calibrated "plywood"...second, if the words get out that DIY calibrated plywood can actually produce good PQ, this might affect the real screen market...now I'm sure we want to avoid such happening... ;D ;D haha oh man I had a good laught on this but good suggestion though! :D

Hehe what happen is she doesn't see any improvement (I'm sure she won't even if there's any)? I'll just tell her cos it takes well-trained eyes to see the difference & since she's just a regular folk, it's not uncommon... :D
Ok, Paul. Will text u. It's your call. Calibrate the new screen or calibrate theShhh lihim lang...I rather call it a"customized screen"...a magician never reveal his secret ingredient dba... :Pplywood! ;D ;D

Does the Auralex Sub Riser help a lot in improving the sound of the subwoofer? Or is it used to reduce vibrations?

Hi sir, where did you buy this 4 bay hdd enclosure? How much? I've been looking for one of these for a while now. Thanks in advance.
Post by: airnolds on May 01, 2011 at 02:03 AM
also, i'm interested with Natosans question.. thinking of pairing that with my WDTV Live Plus.
Post by: pchin on May 01, 2011 at 07:58 AM
You can buy the unit from DigiTag Commercial at New Manila, Q.C. (Near GMA Broadway Centrum)
http://ebuyph.com/PictureShow.asp?P_ID=1327
It's on a special order basis. Cost is P15k. Delivery time takes about 2 weeks+ :)

Hi, great set-up! Pang- HT magazine! Congrats sir.
Does the Auralex Sub Riser help a lot in improving the sound of the subwoofer? Or is it used to reduce vibrations?
Thanks jomonds. Yes, it's effective at reducing or eliminating resonance transfer. This will improve sound as it achieves a more natural tone. :)

The light sabers from master replica and the figures are just magnificent. I tried to use the Jedi Mind trick on Paul to see if he will sell me the stormtrooper or Darth Vader, but the force is too strong with him. ;D
