The New Chane 700 Series

[Petro55]

I thought I'd give a quick update since it's been a while since I spoke about my 753/752 setup. With the holidays, I was able to pickup some nice UHD Blurays on holiday discount.

Last night we watched Dunkirk. Shortly after the exciting opening scenes, I thought I'd have to turn it down relative to loudness was but we quickly got over that. My amp was set at -20dB and the sound was spectacular with incredible sound reproduction. Those Merlin powered Spitfires and bullet sounds were amazing. One wall mounted art vibrated in protest which I fixed with an application of a few cushion adhesives at wall contact points.

I'd rate Dunkirk a B+ as it may not be the proto-typical war flick with a bit excess on Christopher Nolan goal of storytelling. A bit too much of the troops lined up on the beach and a bit cheap on some scene realism. On the bright side, the sound track and HDR color/imaging was fantastic.

I'm very happy I was able to land a set of Jon's magical speakers.

Thats Great! If you have time can you comment on what speakers you are coming from and what type of amplification you are using?

You bet. I came from a set of A5rc-x with a A2.4 center. Amp is an Outlaw model 7700.

I received my third 753 today for my 753 LCR setup, since I can do this with having an AT screen it sounds perfect now. Plus I took down all the walls and fabric I built and minimized the wall that my screen hangs on, more open for improved sound :) Just need to paint the 2x2's black.

Looking good. I bet you can hardly wait to fire those up.

Any plans for an atmos setup?

I watched a bit of Spiderman into the Spiderverse tonight before the kids went to bed and I'm definitely getting more output and overall dynamics from the 753 over the 752 which is to be expected and one of the reasons I love having an acoustically transparent screen allowing me to do so.

No plans for Atmos, I'm just LCR with rears, hopefully a bigger room when we move but keeping it simple.

Very nice.
what will you be using the 752 for now?

i was hoping to grab another 752 to eventually do either a 2ch setup with them or use two of them as rears but with what Jon is saying about the changes to the next run and beyond they will not be the same so not sure, maybe will have to find one used if possible but not sure how safe they are to ship as mine came on a pallet.

We'll run another large batch of the same v1 752 and 753 (with the 740s onwall) so no change to either for some time. Later in the year we'd like to get into a higher output and pricier version of both, plus some other surprises.

Oh that's good, I thought this second run had different drivers and crossover design, hopefully I can get some funds together haha
