And 2 Cats, Sooty the fluffy lovely and Magic the sweet tuxedo

[AVSCraig]

Wow - that's some room. I bet the cats don't stay long if you crank an action movie ! 

[Paul Heroy]

That has got to be the highest density of speakers I've seen in a room. Wow!

[AVSMike]

Lot of speakers and a lot of channels. How is the experience? Obviously you have the dynamics.  

[AVSMike]

What are you using to process all the surround channels?

[AVSCraig]

Wow - that could be the next step for Dolby Atmos - speakers below you and above you ! 

[AVSCraig]

That 4K Blu-ray looks a lot different - and better - on my 4K projector. That looks a bit blown out. Might be your camera recording it though.

My, Sooty passed away 10th November. I'm really sensitive about pets, Cats. I only have, Magic now.

I don't care about my home cinema anymore. I think dolby atmos is rubbish will all was be rubbish format with dtsxpro auro3d, I don;t care about my JBL professional cinema speakers anymore. I hardly now go in the home cinema as home cinema isn't life, its just garbage trash. A Pet is for life and I have dearly lost one. I know none here will care, so why should I bother. I hope dolby labs goes bust with all cinemas and hollywood movies goes bust, what a sad life, 4k home cinemas are. Get a Pet, love a Love a Pet, cos home theater cinemas don't give any love.

I'm very sorry to hear about your loss.    You are wrong about people caring.  I love my cat.  she has been with me for 15 years and I know it will be very hard once she is gone.  My solace will be that I gave her a great home all those years.  You did the same for Sooty.

Sorry for your loss, my pup is my baby. I bring him to the office everyday and basically everywhere I go. To steal a line from the show Letterkenny, when he goes they better dig a whole big enough for the two of us. Best wishes to you and Magic.

[AVSMike]

Enjoy being with your other cat. Maybe consider another cat? Sorry for the loss of your pet.

[bmoney]

so sorry for your loss

[David Vaughn]
