Sorry for yet another corner speaker issue thread but after some advice on where to put my 5.1 system in my new house.
Our new lounge is rectangular and quite long (about 22 ft), have attached a diagram to show where things are.
The TV and assorted AV stuff is in the far corner and cant really put it elsewhere. Dont want it above the fireplace as will mean viewing at a large angle all the time and cant mount on the wall opposite the main sofa as then the screen isnt visible from the sofa at the other end of the room.
So although it isnt ideal I'm after the best bet placement for my speakers, I am only interested in getting decent surround sound to the main sofa so not fussed about the other end of the room.
Seems my only options are to put the front L + R speakers opposite the main sofa on the wall and the rears above the sofa. Not sure what to do with the centre speaker as will look odd on the wall, will it work ok to have it at the bottom of the TV? Sub will be off in the corner next to the fireplace.
As always any advice appreciated
