I’m putting together my first surround sound system and I need some advice with my rear speaker placement.
I'm installing four rear speakers as part of a 7.1 surround system. For the left and right "rear" speakers I will be installing two Polk RC55i in-ceiling speakers. I figured that I would put those several feet behind the primary seating position.
But I’m having trouble picking locations for my left and right "side" rear speakers.
Because of the configuration of my family room, I have only two workable locations for my wall mounted speakers. This are Polk f/x300i bipole/dipoles. I am unable to mount them directly to the left and right of the primary seating position so I’m forced to mount them in one of the following two positions:
2 feet forward of the primary seating position
or
5 feet aft of the primary seating position
Which location would be better?
Thanks!
