Was thinking that it would be a good idea to use 3 HTM1D'S as the mains in a constant hight 2.35 front projection setup. I don't like acoustically transparent screens (oxymoron) and would never place speakers behind one (or use one). When using a 2.35 screen it could be almost as wide as the room while keeping the left and right at a closer to optimum angle by placing them under the screen like the center. You would also have a 100% timbre match.

My local B&W dealer has a setup like this... I think it sounds very good for HT. I haven't spent time with it on 2 CH.Comment

Yes but the sound stage of the center is already low so the L&R will actuality match the center better, since you can't have the center match the sound stage of tower mains. :TOriginally posted by Kal RubinsonComment

Sound stage will be toooooooooooooo low M8 !!
You need floor standers for L&R front to get exquisite HT ( That is my honest opinion) ,as I am reallly into 5.1 and 7.1 Multichannel and HT!!
I would ask B&W this question !!

So what about the center sound stage being too low M9?Originally posted by chinetsComment

It will average out a bit. Of course, I prefer 3 802Ds and just don't bother with a video screen. :BOriginally posted by William

M8 stands for mate !!
Anyway, You will be loosing valuable sound ,as center speaker perform differently than floor standers ,and will sound differently ,asfor Music on DVD or SACD or DVD-A the sound will be very low and less full and the sound stage will sound very small and the highs will not be as dispursed as you would want. Now, if you really have a serious problem because of space ,and have to do it that way by hook or by crook, then better 3 HTM1D than Bose.. Right ?? But to get a fuller and larger stage ,you would be better of placing 2 floorstanders preferably 802Ds on the sides of your screen and 1 HTM1D in the center ,and you'll get a better sound and a better picture sound stage !! That is IMHO (in my honest opinion) just In case :rofl: M9!!
Cheers and Good Luck !!
