Hi,
I have a new house that I am adding a PJ setup to an open entertainment area... which equates to compromises.... Anyhow, I am adding to it in stages and have the good ol' speaker placement question.
Explaining the picture:
- Projector is mounted behind the wall (room is 19' deep)
- 124" screen on the top wall (green)
- Existing speakers: Infinity Alpha L/C/R/Sub (Will have to sell my 4 alpha bookshelves as they dont fit)
- Yellow is the couch/loveseat. Couch is the main listening area and not concerned about the loveseat at all.... we probably will angle it for movies, etc
- 9' ceilings
- Equipment is in the linen closet
Phase 1: 5.1
Should the rear's be:
1) In ceiling (red)? Is there a certain style of in ceiling speaker that works better for this?
2) In Wall (blue)? Again is there a certain style of in-wall that works better?
3) Do both and be 7.1....?
Not sure which is a better compromise: rears being angled down and being correctly to the side of the MLP vs rears being correct vertically and 6' up but behind the listener.
Phase 2: Atmos (and a new receiver
or is it
)
Do those purple circles look just about right?
Thanks, and any other recommendations are welcome
-Todd
PS: other pics are old, screen is framed and have added a box/trim to the projector hole.
