Hi everybody,
I am currently planning a home-cinema in my new apartment and am looking for some advice for the same.
Currently I have a stereo system (Monitor Audio GS20 with Advance Acoustic amp). In the new setup I would like to have a 5.1.2 or 5.1.4 system. As the main amp I picked the Yamaha RX-A 2080.
I have been listening to various speakers and currently lean towards either keeping the GS20 or moving to the new KEF R series or Monitor Audio Gold series.
As for the setup I planned the following and would like to hear your thoughts on it. The couch will be either against the back wall or slightly in front of the wall (listening position approx. 2 feet away from the back wall).
Blue circles: Atmos ceiling speakers (possibly Monitor Audio CP-CT150 or CP-CT260)
Yellow circle: listening position
Rear speakers: Monitor Audio Soundframe 1
Screen: 100" or 110" Magic Screen Reference
Beamer: Optoma UHD3000A
The living room is open towards the kitchen and corridor. As seen in the picture, I have planned curtains that can be closed to keep the light out of the home cinema area as well as to improve acoustics and absorb some of the noise.
Will 2 or 4 Atmos speakers would be better in my situation?
What do you think about the general layout and the choice for the rear and ceiling speakers?
Where would be a good place to put the subwoofer, or can I live without one?
