    On-wall speakers with slight angle

    Hi, I am planning my 5.1.4 setup, and for the surrounds I will need to place on-wall speakers. However, since they will need to be placed slightly behind the listening area, they should probably be angled a bit horizontally. Does anyone know if you can angle on-wall speakers instead of just...

    Question Experiences after moving to tripole surrounds

    Interested in the view of those that have moved to tripole speakers for surround duties. I'm running 7.1.4 with regular surrounds and thinking that tripole could be the next step.

    Question KEF T101 to Monitor Audio Radius 225

    Anyone done this? Currently I have 3 x KEF LS50 fronts + BK sub, powered by an Anthem MRX 540. KEF T101 do surround duties, but they’ve been pretty terrible right from the start. They’re thin, weedy and just can’t handle the power, even at low levels. ARC room calibration is painful to listen...

    Can the AVR390 handle it?

    Hey guys. So I'm rewiring my system. I have 2x Nakamichi AVP1s and an Arcam AVR390. The AVR390 always had issues powering off when powering my 5.2 essentially. It'd just turn off which was very annoying at high volumes. With 1x AVP1 handling the other channels, its all good. However I'm...
