Previously I had trouble with my old subwoofer (JAMO THX passively driven over a 2 * 270-watt amplifier). Due to cancellations in the room, the bass did not sound more like after the first renovation of the home theater, the placement turned out to be due to the huge size of the Sub-JAMO very difficult. This worry I'm going now - the THX set of devil comes with two powerful subwoofers therefore, which are now situated behind the hole in the drywall base of the canvas. These ensure finally for bass pressure in the right places, bringing the legs and the abdominal wall to flutter. Direct embedded in the drywall base wall are the three satellites S 500 FCR, the two surround dipoles hanging left and right of the second row of the audience (three-seater) at approximately 1.70 meters in height, the back-Surrounds above the three-seater in about the same amount.
That it overall as "devilish" sounds good (this allusion, I can not help now), I would not necessarily expect in advance. No trace of tonal discoloration between the middle and the sides or front and rear. The first row of seats is now finally in the same spatial pleasure like the second, which in turn benefits from the diffuse front-back radiation of the dipoles and the precise spatial supplemented by back-surround speakers.
So in the top (+ 3D Blu-ray) was [3 Blu-rays], exactly to locate the knock on the door, as Carl with his home floats above the clouds, the wind noise and the scene before the storm front have clearly demonstrated with which to detail the engineers have proceeded here in the mix.
The Zugexplosion in Source Code [Blu-ray] comes with an almost insanely deep rumbling therefore - underlaid with no warning and no time with this spongy roar that one of the other speaker systems unfortunately knows all too well. Our new offer - which really is Bass, he comes with force, therefore, no grumbling - and where nobody is buzzing not's. By the way, the THX-Subs are connected to a 15-meter RCA cable to the output of the AV receiver (RCA cable, 15.00 meters, RCA male to male, high-end cable * HCK 9701 15 of Profitec) hum Thank God none.
Even with music playback of Super Audio CD makes an excellent impression Set - Wish You Were Here - 35th Anniversary Limited Edition SACD - Available now, I have "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" never heard, but always wanted me.
That's the best speaker compilation that I've ever had (and I had more expensive in use). And it's certainly not the exuberance of feelings which enticed me here for the award of the highest predicate: Five stars for the THX set of devil!
