Placement of center speaker?


AUGIE

Recommended Posts

In designing my basement in conjunction to my HT system I've come to a problem in how high I can put my center speaker. I'm using a SC 1 and would like to place it above my projection screen, about 7 feet with 8 foot ceilings, or is this to high? Will it be okay as long as I angle it down toward the main seating? Any help would be appreciated ....thanks.

I would think so. My friend's dad's HT has the center and fronts up really high, like 8 feet. But he has two monstrous Legacy speakers up front too... all his surrounds are up high too. It sounded fine to me. cwm4.gif

It shouldn't be a problem.

Experiment with angle to get the best sound.

Make sure to put some rubber feet on it so it don't come a tumblin' down on yer head.

Although speakers do rely on part that there be some clearance from the ceiling. To allow for reflection. In the case of a center channel, most of the time you'll end up taming early reflections from the ceiling anyway.

So put her up there and point it down.

I hope you get good results.
