Due to its large size, placement flexibility is obviously very limited with a THT in most theater setups. Even though I have a really big theater room at 20' X 30' X 16'H I am still fairly limited in where I could put one if I decided to go ahead and build.
My question is, how critical is placement in terms of sound quality? The only corner that I could place this beast in is about 25 feet away from the main listening area so I assume that would be a no-no. If not there, it would have to go along the wall opposite the projector screen and off to the side of the back row of seating.
I was hoping to be able to fit one under my landing coming in from the main house but that are is only about 27" X 34" X 32" so that won't go.
Another option would be to actually place it on the other side of my new wall and cut a hole to shoot through. Is that a good option or does much of the sound emanate from the box itself and not just the port?
