My current setup has my rear speakers located on the side wall approx 2 1/2' above and 2' behind ear level when seated, firing at each other.
The Dolby standard http://www.dolby.com/ht/Guide.HomeTheater.0110.html recommends the speakers be placed 2' - 3' above and to the side, however a setup like mine is suggested as an alternative if this is not possible due to room layout (I have a heater in the way).
My question is would I benefit from mounting the speakers on adjustable brackets that would allow me to aim the speakers more towards the seating position - I realise the best way is to try but am curious as to peoples experiences / thoughts.
The rears (Wharfedale Diamoind 8.1) are only used for DVD video (5.1).
Thanks
