    Location of rear surrounds

    In a 21 x 14 sized room I can easily mount rear surrounds (in a 5.1 system) on the rear wall (14') but how mad is this compared to moving them to the sides?

    In a 5.1 setup they are supposed to be on the sides app. 2 feet/60 cm above your ears.

      As title says it all, which should I go with to use as rear surrounds?

      Rear Surrounds-Wall mounted Bookshelf Speakers-Sound Quality?
      by Russ L
      Does anyone have wall mounted small bookshelf speakers as rear surrounds and how do they sound? I was thinking of any examples but especially the B&W DM600s. Was considering this as a solution for limited room space and can't use in-wall speakers.
      Thanks. Russ
