    Home Theater/Game Room Thread

    I'm a big fan of Polk, I have been using a set of Monitor 70's for about 10 years or so. I think my center is a T30, rears are OWM3's, and a PSW 505 sub. Im not even sure what would be a good upgrade for the money. I got very good deals on my current stuff.

    Any doctor that tells you every month or even every 2 weeks for your test shots has no idea what they are talking about, and you should seek someone else. Weekly minimum, and some swear by every other day.

    Theres going to be a lot more of that "Only in theaters" coming though. Look at what top movies made in the domestic box office prior to covid, then look at them after. They are the same or better, for example Top gun and the barbie movie. If you mean before covid, then just look at the box...

    Why did people go before Covid? There was still all that same stuff available then. It's the overall experience. Most theaters are using 300k laser projectors. Or seeing a movie on a 97 ft wide by 76ft tall IMAX screen with a 100k plus audio set up. The only reason for the decline was covid...

    That chart looks fine up until Covid bullshit. The other main issue was everything was coming out on streaming platforms and some were in movies and streaming. It now you’re going to start seeing movies being released exclusively in theaters only to start off like it was before Covid. I fully...

    Anyone still holding AMC? I've been in a while and was way before the 72-dollar run up, I held through it because I was and still am convinced that that wasn't jack shit. Of course, im feeling a bit dumb now that it's in the shitter. There's a wide range of opinions on Adam Aron, from he's a...

    I never played the first one, but I want to give this a shot. I'm going to play on PC, and I see people saying you will want to use a controller over mouse and keyboard for this game. Is that true?

    In planes of power, there was some exp bug, and I forget the zone name and what it was now. But there were some people exploiting it for a short time.

    The hardware was attached to the studs, that all stayed in the studs, the arms are what failed. My fiancé has a fuck ton of clothes. Those are what failed. They stayed in the wall as I have them screwed into the studs, im not using the nails they come with.

    Any suggestions for a strong closet solution for hanging clothes? I have a wall that's all closet, around 16ft long. They had the wire shelve system with the thin metal arm supports.

    I used to install for Dish Network. If the installer installed it correctly they used "pitch patch" its a square piece of sealant that they put the lag bolts into and it help seals it in the roof. I recommend you just take the dish off the mount and leave the foot on the roof. That's the safest...

    Damnit, I want one. Are you concerned at all about burn in? It seems like Best Buy is the only ones I saw that have the warranty to cover burn in, but its $314 dollars for it. Which would be worth it if it did actually get some burn in I would think.

    That 3090 looked huge! I don't know if I can justify the extra 800 dollars for one considering how good the 3080 is supposed to be already. Who knows though, im also the type of person to spend double the price to go from a 65" tv to a 75" :honkler:

    Yeah I am thinking of wall mounting it with as slim as a mount I can find, I see people who are using it as a PC monitor are loving it. If I did get one I would get it through Costco or Sams I think so I could return it without any issues if I ended up not liking it.

    I found an open box B550 Aorus master for $223 at microcenter, I have it reserved and im about 99% set on it after the things i've seen about it.
