It is just a vertical beam in the room and not a wall as the CAD drawing could indicate, correct? Bill I agree with Bill, that is exactly where I would put them.

Yeah I am definitely going to go that route as it looks like it will work perfectly for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holtrp Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Youthman's diagram is accurate. I have played around quite a bit with different side surround placement. I prefer keeping them exactly 90° from the listening position and either right at or about 6" above ear level provides the most defuse, non-localized, enveloping sound to my ears. I always seem to be able to tell exactly where the speaker is when I move them further back and higher on the wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ski Bum Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Given you background with live sound, it's inevitable that you'll some day end up with a fully active Cinema rig. Inevitable. Might as well start planning for it now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can picture dual 18" subs going across the front already! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Youthman Posted August 25, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 25, 2016 My screen is 12' wide. You could fit this in your room. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the LED setup as well. I don't even think that would fit because the border/frame usually make the screen even bigger! Those subs must rock! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydue Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 My room is even smaller than youthman's. 11'8" wide. And my speakers are all much bigger than his lol. You can jam a lot in a little space with a falsewall 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
