My sister is building a new house and she lives about 2 1/2 hours away from me, but she asks me for advice regarding the tech related stuff pertaining to her home. She wanted to put in a 5.1 system in the front family room using in-wall/in-ceiling speakers to keep a clean look.
I saw her this weekend and we were looking over the plans and I noticed that there was a pitch to the ceiling and I thought, in order to do that center speaker, they would have to make a small box or something in the center for it to keep it in the middle, and then we would just have to adjust the timing delay on the receiver for the distance difference between the center speaker and the left and right.
Today she went to check on the progress and noticed they put the speaker mounts in and knew it didn't look right based on what we had discussed on Friday, so she sent me a couple pictures. Take a look and I would really appreciate your input or suggestions on what we should do, all I know is that the way the front stage is set up will not work. The center speaker placement is horrible and the whole front stage is too close to the wall.
