Are all of your panels hollow or did you put absorption material in them?

Most are filled with oc703 and some have oc703 with reflective tape to not totally kill the room 

a few panels are only filled with poly batt

so just recently added a laptop to the mix to use BEQ with a 2x4hd

the bass is so incredible now its not even funny. I also finally downloaded the newest version of REW and used the room setup tool, and found if i move my rear sub 2' to its left i would get rid of a nasty dip at 40hz (which dirac fixed but would rather be flat without EQ first) And sure enough the move helped.  I am not INSANELY flat down to 5hz.  I have actually never had a response this flat.  pretty excited about it tbh

These tools are amazing, I love the new theater, not only for its much bigger size which = better sound, but for ease of use with setting up the measuring equipment etc.  Was always a pain in the butt in the old theater and where the AV rack was.

I'll post my FR when i get home tonight :)

Nice response with four UM18's. I have a couple of those paired with an 18" Maltrom-X, 18" REXXX and a couple of SI-18's.

Added the lumagen radiance pro. Although pricey it’s like I just got a brand new projector. Wow this thing is money. The black level and color saturation are off the charts!

And now Blu-ray’s rival 4k discs. I’m beyond impressed

Same here. It ( and the DCR lens ) made my RS4500 like a new projector. And every time Lumagen makes a firmware improvement, it gets better yet again !

Def glad they constantly update it to makeit
better. Makes the entry price easier to swallow knowing they are still working on it and making it better constantly
