I recently upgraded my receiver to the new Onkyo TX-SR608 , and got myself some used TSC speakers, 2 Front, 2 Rear, 1 Center, 2 Dipole surround and a powered sub for a good price, my question is how do I lay this out in the room plan I have posted here. The left side of the picture is to show where there is a brick hearth and (2 ft high) and full brick the length of that to the ceiling, like a bench built into the room. Any suggestion on best placement would be appreciated. Think I can put the Rears on the shelf along the back if I boost the power to them ? The top of the picture is where the TV is situated, betweeen the windows, the couch is in the center there, and on the lower left above the door is stairs going down and up .
