    Help with angles/degree

    Here is my question.....how many degree pointing down does my rear speakers need to be? The reason I am asking, cuz this question is weighting on which speaker mounts to get...this is going to be the set up:

    My seating height is 3.5' (C)
    Distance from rear speakers 10' (A)
    Rear speakers off floor 7' (B)

    Image not available

    Like I said, I am trying to figure out how many degree pointing down my speakers need to be.

    Thanks,
    jeff

    If you wanted them pointed right at you, 20 degrees.

        Rear Surround Speakers Build
        by Wheels
        I'm trying to help a friend with his rear speakers in his surround setup. His room layout is anything but ideal. There is no way possible to move the rear speakers so they are outside everyone without going in the attic, and he really doesn't want to do that. I mentioned I could build him some new...

        by Chris D
        I took a bunch of pics of my theater entrance and bar area, now that it's been (mostly) cleaned up and organized so much more.

The front wave is the sound that radiates forward and interacts directly with the listener, creating the desired sound output. However, the...

        Recommendations for rear surround options
        by Unclejunebug
        I recently built some Swope MTM's (which I love) as main LR's for my home theater and I was originally planning on building the center and rear surrounds to round out the set. I'm still planning on the center but now, because of how my living room is setup, I'm wondering what the best course of action...

        This topic often gets the geekers and tweakers all fired up hotly debating the merrits of both sides and inteligent debate can be fun and a learning process for both sides. My point with this post though is to tell you what I've discovered twice now with my IXOS interconnects. Several moons ago I was...
