Now that I have enough speakers for 7.1, I would like some advice on where to place them.
I now have a NHT Supercenter, 4 NHT Superone's, a home built 12" Shiva sonosub, and 2 Sound Dynamic RTS-1's.
I'd like to know the optimal placement of these speakers in my room. The RTS1's seem like they would do best mounted on the side walls, but should they be behind, in front of, or even with the seating position? Here is a pic of the Sound Dynamics:
And here is a rough outline of what my room looks like:
The living room has 14' ceilings, with the vault running from the entertainment center back to the kitchen. The kitchen, hallway, office, etc ... have 9' ceilings.
Right now, the rear speakers are sitting on shelves about 10' up on the back wall. I placed an icon to the sides where I'm thinking of putting the Sound Dynamic speakers. There's enough wall space above the french door and window to mount them. Would this be the surround location, and the ones on the rear wall be the surround back location?
Thanks for any input, once I figure this out, then comes the fun of running 2 more sets of wires!
