Once the customer had each speaker positioned correctly, they ran the AccuEQ room correction on the Onkyo and let the receiver go to work calibrating the sound. After running AccuEQ, they verified the distances that the calibration software generated and made a few additional adjustments to their crossover points to fine-tune the sound to their liking.
After calibrating the receiver, our team directed the customer to our Best Free Home Theater Audio & Video Upgrades YouTube channel playlist. We had them run through our Top Home Theater Audio Upgrades and Top 5 Home Theater Video Upgrades & Optimizations to get everything perfectly calibrated. This eliminated some rattles they had in a light fixture and perfected their lip-sync.
This client loves watching movies and uses a Roku Ultra 4K as their main source for streaming all of the latest blockbusters. The Roku was previously used on an older model 65 inch Samsung TV that didn’t support HDR and left them with just an average immersive experience. To step it up, they upgraded to a Sony 75” X85J TV which provided a huge improvement in immersion and picture quality. By going with a larger television rather than a projector, the customer eliminated the need to mount a projector or a screen in the home they rent.
The Sony 75” X85J also enabled the customer to get a big picture without having to put a lot of their budget into the TV, leaving more room for better audio. The X85J series of Sony 4K HDR LED models offer a lot of Sony’s great video technology for a very reasonable price.
