Hi,
I have a pair of B&W CCM663 that are sitting in a box, doing absolutely nothing, since we moved here 2 years ago.
Fortunately, during construction, I had the electricians run speaker wire to a decent location for the rear/side surrounds in a 5.1 system. I was able to use Paradigm outdoor speakers, that were on the deck at the old house. They've been more than adequate, but I might as well match brands with my HT.
Left Surround:
Right Surround:
The bottom line is that I would like the enclosures to blend into the drywall finishes, as much as possible. I'm thinking of mdf screwed, glued, and lined with acoustic egg crate foam. Then I would adhere Sheetrock with rounded corners. Would a triangular "box" at the same angle as the Paradigms above work, and what should the internal volume be, within reason? Has anyone else completed a similar project?
Thanks in advance,
Ken
