chuckears Posted January 16, 2002 Share Posted January 16, 2002 I am planning my HT setup, and am sitting on an extra RC-3 (well, trying to sell it, but if I don't have any luck...). My living room is arranged with the primary listening position nearly against the back wall, with no realistic way of moving this forward more than half a foot or so. Is it possible to place a rear center channel a little higher on my back wall (I have a cathedral ceiling), and firing downward towards the listening position? I am not sure if the phase adjustment would allow this sort of close placement... ------------------ Klipsch Fortes, Oiled Oak McCormack DNA-1 Power Amp McCormack TLC Pre-Amp Adcom GCD-700 CD Player NHT SA3 Subwoofer Amp Hsu TN1220 Subwoofer Old Akai cassette Deck Akai AAR22 used as tuner Nordost Solar Wind interconnects Kimber 4TC Speaker Cable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boa12 Posted January 16, 2002 Share Posted January 16, 2002 chuck, what do u mean by phase adjustment? u mean the speaker distance setting? anyway that should be fine. though it's best behind, u should be able to set the distance/delay for it to sound how u like. i set my rear center closer than what it is actually by about 4 ft to simulate an extension of the rear wall some, ie, a deeper rear soundstage. fe, if it's 5 ft above & behind your sweet spot, u could set it to 1 ft (if the distance setting goes that low). ------------------ My Home Systems Page This message has been edited by boa12 on 01-16-2002 at 09:07 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckears Posted January 16, 2002 Author Share Posted January 16, 2002 Oops, my mistake... yes, I meant to refer to the speaker distance setting, not the phase... ------------------ Klipsch Fortes, Oiled Oak McCormack DNA-1 Power Amp McCormack TLC Pre-Amp Adcom GCD-700 CD Player NHT SA3 Subwoofer Amp Hsu TN1220 Subwoofer Old Akai cassette Deck Akai AAR22 used as tuner Nordost Solar Wind interconnects Kimber 4TC Speaker Cable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
