Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater HTPC Build In Progress

The BFD, Behringer Feedback Destroyer (although, for reasons which I myself do NOT understand, whenever I see the acronym all I can think of is Big F***in' Deal ), is a parametric equalizer often used to flatten the frequency response of subwoofers.

As Jack explained I used it for tweaking the twin EP600s, but it will be going on eBay since it has now been replaced with the Velodyne SMS-1 unit.

Just an update on the progress if anyone is interested, this pic was taken early Monday morning, have made more progress sine that time but still going to take another week I think.

Hey, you missed a spot over there.

This is what you need. Up to 5.5TB of protected storage using 500GB hard drives.

Well that is one reason I'm not adding DVD storage to the HTPC, depending on what happens there may be a need for a substantial investment in computer room.

Any more progress to report? I'm building an HTPC in a few weeks, and am still trying to decide on a case. I considered the one you have, but am a little concerned regarding the proprietary PS. I'm not sure of the replacement cost and downtime in the event of a PS failure.
What's the noise level like with the box up and running?

The HTPC project has been on hold for the last couple of weeks well making the new cabinets for the rack systems. As for the PS issue I was not really concerend about it as there is a company that makes an adapter mount for a standard PS. I plan on being able to finish up the HTPC in another week or so and will post more about it once it is online.

Once the Sony HD is in place the last of the trim will be put in place, for now back to the re-wiring of the system.


First rack with all components in place and power cables in place.

Looks great Dennis.

Good grief, I could only dream to have the where with all to build and afford something that nice.

Ahh, I like your wiring, man after my own heart.

My motto, "You can never have enough zip ties." I'm enfatuated with making the inside of computer cases/other cables looking really neat. The cables look very neat, nice how you moved the power cables all to one side.

That kinda reminds me of when I was working at a computer shop, they had me wire a huge server cabinet, almost looked like that, with all the power cables all zip tied together in a neat little bundle. For some reason, I think doing that is sorta fun.

Anyways, it looks fabulous!

Are you only going to have one halo controller, and move the balanced outputs to the other 2 halo amps on the other side?

P.S. I just realized how sweet that rack design is. You can, slide it out turn it, that is REALLY nice man.
