I understand it's Australia Day over there. Do you celebrate it at all? I think it has something to do with the British fleet arriving, is that right?

G'day, Franin.

How's the HT treating you? Been watching any good movies? Have you seen Skyfall yet? Both the AQ and PQ are top notch. Wreck It Ralph comes out here tomorrow. I'll be adding that one to the ol' collection.

Skyfall has fantastic sound and spectacular picture. A reference disk for sure. On my TV it looked great. I imagine with your projector it will look out of this world. Plus the audio will sing with the 1027's and JL's biggrin.gif.

Hey buddy all good. HT wise I'm happy I've reached a level where I can sit back and watch movies.
Skyfall was awesome enjoyed every bit of it. Glad I bought it.
You will love Wreck It Ralph, definitely worth a blind buy if you haven't seen it.

Yeah, your HT is in a whole other league. It's great to just sit back and enjoy it. We watched Here Comes The Boom tonight. My kids and I were laughing throughout.

I'll take that beer, mate.biggrin.gif

Here Comes the Boom stars Kevin James, Salma Hayek & Henry Winkler (The Fonz biggrin.gif). It's a pretty funny film with a good message.

Not to bad. Just waiting on my new server to be ready to be installed biggrin.gif. That's a pretty big upgrade for me and I can't wait. Other wise the system sounds great with the Focal's and feels great with the Crowson.

The Crowson is a really cool piece of equipment. I was not sure what it would be like but when Craig brought it over for me to test out I did not want him to leave with it. So as soon as could, I ordered a system for myself. It's different then the shake you simply get from subs. Once you experience it, you will have to have it in your system. But I am still happy with the Focal's as well. They sound great for music and for movies they do the job very well also.

I don't think crowson is available here in Aust. I think we have the standard butt kickers. My next purchase will be a chromapure auto calibrate bundle for the DUO. Hopefully all goes well and should purchase soon smile.gif save a few $$$ in calling a calibrator to the job for me.

So the DUO is a video processor. Looks cool. Don't fret about not being able to get the Crowson. I really got it because I liked the extra shake I got, and since I can't add another sub, this was the closet thing I could do as opposed to getting another sub. Good luck on the DUO calibration. I hope it meets your expectations.

With the Duo I hook all my players to it and sent the separate audio hdmi to the Denon and the monitor 1 output to the Jvc. I'm hoping the auto calibration works well in time will see how it goes.

Got you. I think. That should make connecting all if your players easy to use. I hope the auto cal works out for you.

Frank, have you made changes that I missed that you need to do another calibration? Or is a "just in case I get a projector I can do it myself" kind of thing. I mean, I know I only have a 42in TV and the calibration is completely different, but after it was calibrated I haven't tweaked it touched it all. Looking forward to seeing how this works though.

Just video calibration Mike. I've just ordered the chromapure package with the auto cal upgrade and meter so know I'm able to calibrate my projector every 100 hours without hiring someone else to do it. Regarding TVs I think you need to calibrate them once and that's it. Unfortunately with projectors I've been told with the globe the more its uses the more calibrations are needed to stay on top of things.
