Surround Sound System Tune-Up

We have had signs made that say Free Surround Sound System Tune-Up.  There are so many things that can be wrong or amiss when you are using so many wires, components, and speakers. Even the smallest little issue can make a big difference in the way your setup sounds, looks, or performs. I have posted some pictures that show what a difference a little time can make when we are dealing with so many different odds and ends.  Even my own setup at my house looked like everything was in disarray.  The way it is set up now looks much nicer, cleaner and more professional.  I am willing to take the time to help everyone achieve a great look and sound from their existing system they already have for FREE!   It is extremely important, especially after all of the money that has been put into these systems. I hope that I can get the word out that good work is available and I am ready to take the time. 

The Picture Makers

1 Samsung BDP-3600 Blu-Ray Disc Player, 1 Toshiba HD-XA2 HD-DVD Player, and just the cable HD DVR reciever. 

Amps and Processors

                                                                    

I got a Pioneer VSX-9130 7.1 Surround Sound Processor complete with DTS-HD Master Audio and Dolby TrueHD Lossless Audio Formats. 1 RBH SA-200 Subwoofer Amplifier which controls the bass in my left and right FM-45's. Also a Buttkicker amplifer and speaker unit. 

Ok, 

So this one is all of my speakers and equipment.   I have an RBH MS-10.1 Subwoofer, 1 RBH TK-515, 2 RBH FM-45's and 2 pair of logitech z-5500 surround sound speakers. 

Holy cow what a weekend!  I took all of my furniture and equipment from my living room out and put it all into the kitchen so that the carpet could be cleaned.... So I used this opportunity to take some pictures to show all the different components in my system.  I also figured out a few ways to hide some wires and make the entire setup a little easier on the eyes. Obviously the only thing we should care about seeing is the tv screen, which is why the wires need to be hidden so there are no other distractions. Hopefully everyone can see why it is so important to hire a professional to put in any kind of electronics. There are just so many things we don't think about when we are doing it alone.  The professionals have seen so many set-ups that they have great ideas to make the experience best for the customer. 

1st Post

I love Back to the Future. Ever since I was 3 or 4 years old I have loved that movie. In the movie, Marty asks Doc Brown a question about how the Delorean runs.

Marty: "This is heavy-duty, Doc, This is great. Does it run on regular unleaded gasoline?"

Doc: "Unfortunately no, it requires something with a little more kick, Plutonium!"

I figured that if someone needed just a little more kick in their home movie experience, Plutonium Home Media Solutions would deliver.

I have felt like this was a good idea, and that it is important to write down the things that I deal with whenever I work with electronics. I hope to be able to teach others and help them understand how complicated it can be. I also hope that it will give people good ideas on how they can improve their own movie watching experience at home.  

Twice a week, I have the task of staying in a hotel. I always feel cheated.  The TVs are not only small, but old. The speakers don't work well, and they distort even at low volume levels.  I usually only watch regular network TV, but sometimes I bring my X-box 360 or Playstation 3. I always feel like I can't read the text on the games, the sound is, of course, distorted, and I just never get the same enjoyable experience that I get when I am home. I feel like if this particular hotel were to upgrade to HDTV, that everyone would benefit and be more likely to come back and stay here again. I, unfortunately, am bound to return because of my day job.  So all I can do is be excited to return home to watch a good movie, tv show, or play a good video game. 

More exciting things to come...... pictures, electronics, toys, all the good stuff.  (Promise) :)
