Hi guys,
I am new here and need advice. I know this topic has probably been discussed to death but I am having problems searching for a topic similar to my situation. I have my HT set up in a 15X20 room. My center and Front mains are against front 20' wall and my sofa AGAINST the rear 20' wall. I have finally bought a pair of bipolar Definitive BPX's for my rear surrounds and need info on the best placement. I have read recommendations for both placing on side walls facing sofa and rear walls facing forward. The problem with mounting them on the side directly facing the sofa is that there would only be about 1.5' of space between the speaker and the rear wall. (don't know if this is a problem) Definitive actually recommends placing them on the rear wall on either side of the sofa in a situation where the sofa is against the rear wall. I want to make sure that I can HEAR the surrounds for both theater and 5.1 music. By the way the BPX's fire left and right at an angle. Any recommendation on placement would be greatly appreciated. I am torn between the side walls facing sofa or rear walls facing forward. Sorry this is so long.
Thanks,
