Hello everyone,
I'm looking for some advice.
I am putting in a home theater in my living room that consists of a 120" projection screen that comes down over a 50" wall TV.
I am installing a 5.2.2 but one of those ". 2", the sub channel, I'm not sure is really that but that's not where the problem is at.
Ok so the advice I need is speaker placement.
I'm using monopole speakers and I have wall mounted speaker stands for the ceiling atmos because I can't cut holes in ceiling.
The stands jut out from the wall approx 15"and allow full articulation.
I need to know locations for those "ceiling" atmos speakers.
I also need advice about how high I can mount my front speakers for a screen as large as mine, as well as the center speaker as well and also the surrounds.
My room is a rectangle that is 16' long by 14' wide. My couch is against the back wall and makes an L.
I know that ideally I need to move the couch away from the wall but I'm not sure the wife will go for it. So that puts viewing at about 14.5' after taking into account the thickness of couch and how far away from wall the screen is.
I'm in great need of advice for the best 5.x.2 atmos speaker placement.
I've tried to make a rough drawing of the layout and I'm adding it but I apologize that they are not done but it gives you an idea of the front stage of my sound. Also there is a board in front of projecting screen casement that I could potentially mount speakers to.
UPDATED PIC TO SHOW POSSIBLE SPEAKER LOCATIONS... Working on getting better pics of area but this is all I have for now.
On the left in drawing is a stain glass window and door. On the right are also two doors.
Red for speakers... LR could also be on ground on stands but center will have to be up high because there is a bench that goes in if tv marked in yellow.
Gray for speaker wall brackets mounted close to ceiling for atmos ". 2"
Blue is the L couch ....rears surrounds would be on wall behind L couch, not sure how high, that's why I'm here. Either on wall at ease level angled at mlp or up higher on wall, not sure yet
Green is a long table
