Home Theater stuff has arrived.

Been trying to figure out in what type of subs to go with on the HT and decided on the Epik Conquest. The package arrived three days early, just in time for the weekend.

This a pic someone posted on the AVS forum showing the size:

Here are the crates. Yeah. you ain't seeing double. Got two just in case.

My wife doesn't know I ordered two. She'll find out tonight.

I guess there won't be anyone asking where the bass is coming from. That shit is huge. Pair of multi-directional 15's?

These are 18". I went ahead just for the fuck of it and hooked up both Conquests and also kept the Velo (powered 12"). Crossed the Velo over around 100 and using it for midbass.

I've also got powered 12's in my 7002's for my rear surround.

Let me tell you. I watched a few scenes of War of the Worlds (pods emerge scene) and I just about called 911 because I thought I was having a heart attack. The shit was messing around with my breathing, and I ain't even got it cranked.
Here is a few pics of the 12" compared to the Conquest.

Here's the link to the specs:

I used to be a big Godzilla fan when I was a kid. I thought it was a pretty cool looking toy so it became a living room fixture.

Makara, i agree 100%. Whenever the projector comes in, I'll be able to space them like they should be. When they are set up properly, bipolar speakers can't be beat.

Whenever I think about how nice it would be to have a huge tv and sound I soon find myself wondering about the sanity of spending so much money on a device I frequently feel like throwing a brick at. Commercials, commercials, commercials.

But damn it would be nice to watch racing on one of those.

I haven't had cable or real TV going on seven or 8 years now. I am strictly a movie man. I am so far from reality that I love it. Ignorance is bliss.

I remember going down to the cable co. and requesting cable. The lady behind the counter asked for my SS#. I didn't give it to her and I didn't get cable in ret
