Another VMPS based system in So CA. (Home Theater)
« on: 28 Apr 2009, 09:40 pm »
I know VMPS'ers like to hear about the systems of others and I think MOST are more 2 channel oriented.

However, I am now in the process of taking delivery on a VMPS Home Theater System that is close to "MAXXED OUT" :thumb:

This system is very likely one of the (If not THE) best HT sound systems in So CA.

The set up looks like this:

Mains: VMPS RM40's in Piano Black and all the BCSE upgrades and the OXO.
Center: VMPS RM40 with the same BCSE upgrades (horizontally oriented)
Side Surrounds: VMPS Dipoles Piano Black
Rear Surrounds: VMPS Dipoles in Piano Black
SUB: VSS in Piano Black
Sub AMP:  VMPS 1000w SubAmp

BluRay Disc Player: OPPO (when released)
HDMI Switcher: OPPO
Pre Pro: BRYSTON SP2
AMPS for Frontal Array: 3 NuFORCE Reference 9 v2 Special Edition Monoblocs
AMPS for Surrounds: NuFORCE MultiChannel (5 channel)
Power Conditioning: NuFORCE Black NOISE units

The client also has ordered a Panny 1080p projector, mount, and 120" fixed screen.

What is maybe even MORE impressive is the complement of a PURE AudioQuest top of the line set of cables, including SKY XLR interconnects and Volcano Speaker cables to the Frontal Array.

I am really looking forward to setting this system up and dialing it in. While I have suggested it an incredible 7.1 HT system, it will more than likely best most 2 channel set ups to a large degree also.

Hope I remember to bring my camera aa

Finally back from NYC, and here are a couple pics for the system.

The young owner has great ears and has listened for many hours on his mentors RM40's, and now has the challenge of getting the same sound in a differently shaped, treated, and configured room.

ABOUT THE RIGHT HEIGHT



WOOF WOOF  Very Serious Sub VSS

Thanks for the pictures.

That is one VSSB (Very Seriously Strong Box) that the Sub is resting on :D

Here is another photo of the System in a "precondition" during temporary set up.

The equipment rack and RM40C stand is temporary and has been replaced with a new and higher rack from BDI.  I'll try and get pics.

It is no an exceptionally large room.

I think maybe 14 x 24 x 9 (just a guess).

Here is another shot of the young owner and budding AudioPhile/VideoPhile.



Visiting today and installing more equipment (ChangLightspeed PC) and cables.

Also his installer has mounted the Dipoles on shelves so we get to fire them up.

Here is another picture of the system and his Audio Mentor (Shaukat) who is a good friend and VMPS client of mine who guided hime through much of the process.  Thanks Shaukat!!
