Imagine you are an evil salesman and a complete noob invites you to his home to help him plan for and arrange a 7.2.4 surround sound system in his wonky theater room. He wants it because someone else told him to get it and that it would be so cool and he has some money to play with and figured...

Greetings HT buffs! May I pick your brains? Recently bought a home, and to my surprise there were speakers already in the ceiling, as well as a passive subwoofer in the wall (below "R. Surr." in diagram, near floor). Over the past couple months I crafted a strategy to improve upon this room...

Hey everyone! My grandmother is in an assited living home and due to the room dimensions + her age, she has a hard time understanding dialogue and hearing the TV clearly. I figured a great solution would be a 4k firestick + two echos that I could set on either side of her couch. This solution...
