    Home Theatre Questions and Suggestions

    I just recently purchased a house, an i will be setting up my home theater in the living room. I would like some suggestions as to how i should set it up. Here is what i already have.
    1. The room is 29 X 13.6 rectangular shaped room.
    2. I have a sony 7.1 reciever
    3. 47 inch panny widescreen rear projection
    4. I have a self powered sony 10 sub
    5. All speakers are pioneers
    6. Front R an L are 150watt bookcase speakers
    7. The back 4 are 100 watt cube speakers
    8. The center speakers is an older 85watt
    9. I have dish HD reciever
    10 X-box
    11 Zenith DVB318 upconverting DVD


    I would love some suggestions on mounting the speakers, running the wire, ideas for a rack system for the components, an a DVD storage rack as well, i have a rather large collection of dvds.

    One end of the LR is an entrace into the hall way that goes to the front door, an bedrooms of the house. At the other end is a door to the kitchen area.

    Jason, let me ask a couple of questions before getting started. Do you have a WAF (wife acceptance factor) to deal with or do you have free reign? Are you willing to stir up some sheetrock dust?

        I'd move the side speakers so that they were inline with the couch...that will mean moving the couch a little forward so that you can get the side speaker between the windows if possible.

          That plan that i drew up is just an idea i got for the layout of the furnature, i really won't know where everything will go till i get it all in the room an see how it looks in different parts of the room. I do know for sure that the TV will be where i have it on the diagram, an there will be a fireplace built in the opposite end of the room on day, but not this year anyway. I plan to take an run all my wiring under the floor or ceiling what ever is most applicable when i get down to running the wiring. I want to do as professional a job as i can.
