chuckears Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Discussion Starter · #1 · a moment ago Looking at installing four in-ceiling speakers for Atmos and DTS:X - I was wondering what simple tools are needed to determine placement? I am aware of the recommendations, and wish to get as close as possible to the 45-degree angle from the LP suggestion. A couple of challenges: a vaulted ceiling (the peak of which runs from the listening position to the front soundstage), and the sweet spot is only 3 feet from the back wall. I am visualizing a 2-beam laser level/pointer with a bubble level to determine the horizontal, and the beams adjustable like a compass. I haven't found anything (at least, not for a reasonable cost) that fits this description. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
314carpenter Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 There are only 2 tools I would use to determine placement. If I weren't so lazy, I could get away with using just one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckears Posted February 21, 2022 Author Share Posted February 21, 2022 With the angled ceilings, it's a little awkward determining placement on the ceiling. Just wondering if there are methods or tools others have used to locate placement as accurately as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
