Damnnnnn, it is so cool to see someone from my city having such a sick looking home theater. Gives me inspiration to have one like this one day, so thanks for featuring him on the channel!
For someone who does that often, then maybe not. Way cheaper, yes, but keep something in mind. Kaleidescape has access to the studio's RAW mezzanine file. From that, they create their own file. That new file is then available to customers, and is more often than not, larger than what's encoded on a 4K disc (with less compression also). Sometimes, it's significantly larger. A notable example is 'Avengers: Endgame'. That title's 4K disc is 66GB. The Kaleidescape version, on the other hand, is a whopping 104 GB. That will translate to a far superior experience with the Kaleidescape file, for the consumer (in most cases).
@@Freakyguy666 Do you have any resources that compares Kaleidascape releases directly to 4k blurays? I feel like that would be very helpful because Kaliedascape marketing throws a lot of big claims around. Would be cool to see side-by-side pictures.
Thanks for sharing! Looks great, and you have put allot of tought into it. I do not think everybody know how much work that goes into a project like that. Seems like you had allot of fun on the way there also, for some (me included) the road is an important part of the experience. As a perfectionist myself, I can relate to both the cinema and that operating room....I mean garage. ;o) Good quality filming and editing also.
I'm confused about 7.5.4. Does that mean 4 subwoofers? Or maybe 5? Originally 5.1 or 7.1 was meant to signify that the sub channel only has 1/10th of the bandwidth of a regular channel, thus the .1. To my knowledge no movie outside of maybe something from the 60s (Earthquake??) has more than one subwoofer channel, so it's still .1. It's just A LOTTA .1. :) The terminology must've changed so companies would market bigger numbers or something.
Seven speakers in the bed layer (seating level), five subwoofers around the room playing the same bass signal from the movie (each independently calibrated to time align, EQ match, and be level matched by Dirac Bass Control in the processor) to deal with room acoustics and room placement issues, (trying for even bass throughout the theater seat to seat) and 4 speakers overhead, to give you a 3d sound field and help with immersion.
@Game Sack You are technically correct. Films are not mixed with more than one discrete LFE channel. At some point, people began stretching the .1 channel designation, to reflect how many subwoofers they have (in their systems). But in most cases, they are simply just multiplying the same .1 LFE channel.
@@GameSack A lot of people like to list there theater system this way. I guess it sounds better if you can list more speakers. LOL It should be listed as a 7.1.4 with 5 sub woofers. There are only a few processors on the market that offers a 7.2 but not sure if there is any media that takes advantage of this.
I so agree, I finally went to see a movie in a theater, it was over a year because of COVID. I walked out and during the drive home, I was thinking how bad the quality of the image and sound sucked. Would rather watch it at home in my theater. LoL
What a wonderful job you have done creating your perfect HT. Loved watching this video and seeing how this room has transformed, and listening to your comments and seeing the enjoyment on your face from what this room brings to you and your family… Congrats and enjoy!… And yes this makes me want to add K system to my HT as well!

Hello. I really liked your home cinema hall. Please tell me the size of the room and the size of the screen. I am currently at the design stage of my home cinema hall
I'm happy people seem to be liking this content, and I know Shane goes hard on Kaleidescape, but this is marketing. I watch Shane and other independent youtubers to get away from this stuff.
Beautiful man! But don’t you think blu rays sound better than streaming movies? I can’t stand the sound of streaming movies. To me streaming Movies sound not so full.
The next thing you have to do is get the Disc in hand and play it and hear the difference between streaming and seeing the listening to the 4K disc..NO COMPARISON!! 4K Disc will Win EVERY TIME!!!
Hi Shane, big fan of your channel! May I ask for your help? I currently have the LG C1 and want to play movies files I have saved on my external hard drive. They have mixture of MKV and MP4 files. But I think LG tvs don’t play MKV files..Do you have a strategy or advice on which player I can use to play these movie files? Thank you
amazing theater. The room acoustics look like work of Nyal Mellor. Are these absorbers 12"x12" DIY? Also can you please provide the info on Diffusers? I have been trying to find these diffuser to try them out in my room.

This video is a 'customer testimonial' video that Kaleidescape wanted to do and is featured on their site and cross-posted here. If you want more details about the theater itself there is another video here: ua-cam.com/video/cf_9B8YBbR0/v-deo.html
In the timelapse around 3:00 it looks like they've got ~1ft thick fibreglass insulation behind the screen. Not sure if every wall, and the ceiling also had that treatment.
Very nice Kaleidescape theater! one can hope and save! Kaleidescape is more convenient and easier than DIY Plex/Kobe server. But if your able to rip your disc and paste it to a Plex scanned folder its not all that bad. Plus if purchase a NAS like a QNAP/Synology you get more storage and data protection (Raid 6) vs a single large drive inside a Kaleidescape unit. The Zappiti alternative sounds like a hybrid between these two solutions in terms of capability and costs?
Kaleidescape doesn't really need the redundancy because if a drive fails you can simply replace the drive (with their help) and re-download the content. You're otherwise totally correct. I also have an 8-bay ~96TB Synology NAS (With RAID) and run both Plex and serve a Zappiti player. Nothing really compares to the quality and convenience of Kaleidescape, though. I also bought my first Strato player/storage device used on ebay for well under $3k. YMMV
