Tenhet Posted July 5, 2001 Posted July 5, 2001 Here's my present HT setup/speaker placement. Looking for some suggeations or insight on placement for mains and rears. I hope to have an Academy on its way to match with my Quartets to replace the KG1.2v. Also, wanting suggestion for upgrading my current Optimus rears. Guess I should have kept my old 4.2's. As you can see from the attached photos and floorplan that I have very limited choices for rear placement, I think. I plan to add a sub soon - any suggestions?

JohnA Posted July 5, 2001 Posted July 5, 2001 First, I'd center everything on the TV screen, so sounds in the center sound like they are coming from the TV. As for surrounds, I liked the SS-1s I heard and they would not be too big to replace your current rears. Due to space, I'd look at the smaller WDST surrounds for your room. John Quote
Mikekid Posted July 5, 2001 Posted July 5, 2001 Nice looking set-up there! It would be great if you could get your hands on another KG1.2 so you could use those for the rear. Aren't doorways a pain.............. Looks good Scott. Take care Mike Quote
Tenhet Posted July 6, 2001 Author Posted July 6, 2001 Thanks guys. I had thought of building a pair of "solid" bases/stands to raise the Quartets to get them more in line with the center channel. Thinking about a box type of base and fill with sand. My main concern with that is, will I loose any bass by raising them off the floor? I had thought about looking for another KG1.2 for rears and place them on stands behind my lazy-boy and in the small area in front of my acquarium. Also, was thinking about a pair of SS-1s and could mount from the ceiling. Was concerned about being mounted withing 1' of the side walls and sound bouncing off the wall. Any comments guys??? Thanks, Scott PS. Sorry about the sketch being so BIG, for some reason I can't get it to show up smaller. ------------------ Front - Quartets (Walnut oil) Center - KG1.2v (Walnut oil) Rear - Optimus (haha) Receiver - Marantz SR-680 (upgraded from Denon AVR-810) CD - Denon DCM-320 Tape - Denon DRW-850 (soon to be back in the box) MD - Sony MDS-JE330 DVD - coming soon Sharp 27" Quote
