New member Username: Phreak9i6Post Number: 2 Registered: Aug-05 | My wife picked out the cabinets (and the plasma was her idea), The sunlight comes through the window from 2pm-4pm Im usually not home to notice, otherwise its really nice. The cabinets have those "touch to light" hinges. |

I also noticed something else about your living room, however. You have a ceiling fan. How is that fan of yours able to withstand the wraths of your home theater's subwoofer without falling off the ceiling? |

New member Username: Phreak9i6Post Number: 3 Registered: Aug-05 | Well. She hasn't seen the Infinity speakers yet. I'm going to go demo them for her tonight at the local CC. I'm not a bass freak so I dont turn it up past the point of needing it, and the ceiling fan is mounted decently. Has anyone else had issues with ceiling fans and bass? I never took it into consideration before. I'm pretty excited |

It's nothing you couldnt fix though. If you play your movies with much volume, eliminating things that rattle will be an ongoing adventure. If I turn mine too loud, the walls will buzz all by themselves from the inside. |
Gold Member Username: Thx_3417Post Number: 1076 Registered: May-05 | Use the slow "THX" rattle test, this is a slow frequency sweep starting from 100Hz down to 20Hz, and you well be able to also identify other rattles or buzzing sounds that's not part of the soundtrack, this is a real slow process which can take a few hours to perform, and doing it at different SPL db levels.... |
