Why is the ceiling at only 12 feet? IMHO it's too low as it still has mode build up. Treatment does help but a better option was a ceiling at 16ft to 19ft.
Huge fan of KEFs. I've KEF R series speakers for basement tv room. My 5 years old son poked nails in the center speakers R2C. I contacted KEF and explained the situation. They asked me send pictures and explain the situation via email. Without further questions asked, KEF changed the drivers and fixed the speaker at no cost...I love the company who understand their customers and go above and beyond to help them......I must tell you, KEFs R series are amazing speakers (Mains, backs, surrounds: R3, center: R2C and Heights: R8a)....amazing company and great products....I'm lifetime fan of KEFs...
Those couches they have for seating look amazing! I've always wanted a home theatre, but never been that fussed on the usual theatre style seats. This is much more like what I'd do (if I ever could 😅) Fantastic video guys! A real treat to see a company that takes the demonstration of its products so seriously 💯
Beautiful setup and space. The only weak link is the subwoofers. It would be perfect to have the rel's or Jl's in that place. But again this is the manufacture showroom
These videos just keep getting better and better. Hadn't heard of KEF before this, but you created a new fan out of me. Subscribing to this channel has taught me so much, can't even recommend this channel more. Great work!
Definitely got me curious about Kef speakers. I see from one of the comments below that they'll be at the Audio Advice Live event, which I'm planning on attending, so I'll be sure to check them out there. Thanks!
@@chebrubin It's at the downtown Sheraton Hotel. There are several large meeting rooms that will be set up on the main floor and in the towers, there are more demo rooms. We have spread apart the tower rooms to keep sound from bleeding over. We hope you can make it!
It all looks wonderful for their flagship theater showroom. But when I checked how much the lcr cost I almost fell out of my seat. 10 grand each. 👏😮 wow. Must be nice to spend 30k on front stage alone.
First of all, killer job making this video! Second, what a beautiful theater. Definitely one of the more beautiful theaters IMO. I love seeing the living room style look in theaters and not the typical commercial theater look with the traditional theater style chairs and what not. This theater is one that you’d actually want to hang out in with friends whether it be watching TV, playing games, or watching movies. I’ll bet the sound is amazing. Great job putting this video together.
Very nice setup. If I wanted a similar design, would I reach out to audio advice? Would you all provide building plans, etc? And would you happen to know the carpet maker?
Why no Double Bass Array (DBA) with an Bafflewall ? Its in the most cases the better choice Acoustically & Soundwise for home theatres, than a (mostly overpriced) finish Sub on a floor
No its a terrible idea and undoes acoustic work you may have done. Plus glare and reflections from the screen. How many public cinemas do you see with posters in the cinema itself?
@@AudioAdvice cool, I live in NJ. Have Kef speakers. and love them. would love to see and hear these inwalls. I had Paradigm in walls about 18 years ago and they sounded great.
We are not really sure as its at the KEF offices. We do have most of the gear listed here www.audioadvice.com/videos-reviews/kef-music-lounge-theater-tour?KEFTheater Thanks for watching
Speaker placement still doesn't make sense, if the room was a lot bigger and had elevated stadium style seating, then ok, but the seating is all at the same level, all the speakers are firing above all seating positions, not downward but above and across, no different from companies who'll put all speakers in the ceiling, you're always going to hear the content no matter where the speakers are placed, but the ultimate placement would still be at ear level (roughly). 🤔
@@AudioAdvice so what you are telling me is the room has poorer response with two subs and needs ten to have a smoother response. if they room was great with two then ten is overkill. Cant be both ways.
@@benanciopineda9374 didnt say it overpowered the speakers i said it has some serious acoustic issues in the sub range. if the bass is smooth on REW and you are adding 10 to make it slightly better that's a waste of money. If you are installing 10 then thats because the repsonse with 1 or 2 is awful. Simple.

Wow, thanks for sharing your experience! That is a great story.
That is a beautiful looking theater, and I bet it sounds even better!
Thanks! Our people who were there said it sounded great. Thanks for watching

We are glad you enjoyed the tour! Thanks for watching
I love my KEF! I went with the KEF T series and 2 Kube subs in my theater, Sounds amazing!
Thank you for sharing your experience with your KEF speakers, glad you like them
Beautiful setup and space. The only weak link is the subwoofers. It would be perfect to have the rel's or Jl's in that place. But again this is the manufacture showroom
Glad you enjoyed the video
Gorgeous theater....I'm sure those KEF driver's really enjoy all that Parasound power!
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching

How are you guys preparing the convention center?
@@chebrubin It's at the downtown Sheraton Hotel. There are several large meeting rooms that will be set up on the main floor and in the towers, there are more demo rooms. We have spread apart the tower rooms to keep sound from bleeding over. We hope you can make it!
I think they’re running the Acurus act 4 processor. Ridiculously good unit.
Yes, that is what they were using. Thanks for watching
Awesome video!! I have to agree with Billy; the Ford vs Ferrari scene is EPIC!
Thanks for another great drop guys 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it
KEF are my personal favorite speakers. Great video!
Thanks so much, we appreciate you watching

Yes, that is about the cost for many brands top of the line LCR or greater. Thanks for watching
what a great setup
Looks amazing! Almost looks like a second living room.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This must sound absolutely awesome!
Everyone there said it sounded great! Thanks for watching

Thanks so much for the support! It's definitely a beautiful, comfy spot!
I have a pair of KEF C40 towers from the 80s that still sound amazing
Yes. They have made some amazing speakers!!!
Wonderful👍👍👍👍
Thank you! Glad you liked it
Absolutely beautiful theater!
Thanks very much, we appreciate you watching!
Beautiful theater! My room is pretty big but it's not that big!
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching
Very nice setup. If I wanted a similar design, would I reach out to audio advice? Would you all provide building plans, etc? And would you happen to know the carpet maker?

Man.... they must have built this right before Trinnov's waveforming came out...
Probably yes. Waveforming is super cool. We hope to see them figure out a way to do it partially with fewer subs. Thanks for watching
Are the front left and right running full range? Really into full range speakers 🔊!
We need to ask them to find out and will. Thanks for watching
The guy did mention that the front LCR as well as the rear channels are running full range while the side surround are crossed at 40hz
Are these line source or point source? If the latter, do you offer a line source in-wall for HT applications?
Point source. Reach out to our experts at audioadvice.com for more details and offerings. Thanks!
do you know what they use for a processor?
Acurus Act 4 Thanks for watching
Are movie posters a good idea to have on your walls in your home theater? Or will they cause glare and reflection?
The glass front many of them have can cause glare. It is a bit of a trade off between cool decor and sound for some people. Thanks for watching
I'm building sound panels with movie posters printed on fabric. Triple threat:
- awesome posters
- sound treatment
- minimal glare (using darker images)
@@Roller11111 Thanks for pointing this out, we have done this many times in theaters and it works really well to get the best of all worlds
No its a terrible idea and undoes acoustic work you may have done. Plus glare and reflections from the screen. How many public cinemas do you see with posters in the cinema itself?
I’m curious where they crossed over the subs at and if they are running the Atmos speakers at full range.
Great question! Subs are playing 80Hz and down - atmos are crossed over playing 60Hz and higher.
@@AudioAdvice Thanks for that. I was thinking of getting those exact ceiling speakers. I would want to copy their crossover points.
Can I come and check out the studio?
You could contact them at their Marlboro NJ headquarters and ask if you are in the area. Thanks for watching
@@AudioAdvice cool, I live in NJ. Have Kef speakers. and love them. would love to see and hear these inwalls. I had Paradigm in walls about 18 years ago and they sounded great.
How much would this whole setup be?

Definitely disappointed that CI200's should have been used as secondary subwoofers and not main ones. Time to replace mine.
But the uniq aren’t all the same height…..
KEF designed this theater themselves.
All your for $150,000!
Well, it is their flagship demo room! Thanks for watching
gotta feel that 10 subs is an effort to mask issues not resolve them.
The more subs you put into a room, the smoother the bass response is. Multiple subs is always a great idea. Thanks for watching
That’s not how it works. More bass does not mean they overpower the other speakers, you get a more even response for a full everywhere effect.
@@benanciopineda9374 Exactly
@@AudioAdvice so what you are telling me is the room has poorer response with two subs and needs ten to have a smoother response. if they room was great with two then ten is overkill. Cant be both ways.
