@richardbrand. I am a veteran of multichannel. I have plenty of concert DVDs, my favorite being Hell Freezes Over from The Eagles. That’s the reason I have an AVR instead of a preamp. The reason two channels are sufficient for music is because at a live performance, the sound is coming from the front. There are no musicians on the side or in the back or on the ceiling. These are necessary for movies but kind of unnatural for music. I am not saying it can’t be done. My AVR can do Auro 3D and Dolby Atmos music. I prefer stereo though. There is a reason the format has been around so long and is so successful. It is simple and clever. When done right, it really takes you there. Enjoy the music.
Flatscreen between speakers
Has anyone found a solution to cancel or at least improve the acoustic glare caused by a flatscreen tv on the wall behind the speakers? I don’t have a dedicated room and have to share the room with my home theater setup. I have thought of using an appropriate curtain and treat the tv as if it was a window. I am also considering light 3D printed panels that I can temporarily hung when listening to music and take down when watching TV with the wife.
I tried hanging a couple of thick towels on it to see if there would be any improvement and the answer is yes. The center image is more solid and a little deeper. Nothing drastic but if I could squeeze anything positive, why not. Please let me know if you have confronted this issue in the past and whether you were able to solve it. Thanks.

@rtacconi. Everything has its negatives. Projectors require that you watch in the dark only, they are still much more expensive than a comparable flatscreen. It you have a home theater dedicated room, then by all means… |
