Can someone tell me if my sub placement is wrong here? I'm no expert, which is why I was hoping to get some advice on whether I should change the placement here.
Thanks in advance.
Buckle in - this is a lengthy one.
TL;DR: Building a flex theater with ridiculous aspirations and need help with speaker, sub and sound panel placement based on room layout.
The idea was to have a generic entertainment space, so I wouldn't technically call this a "home theater," more just a...
I am moving into a new home soon and would like suggestions on the rear surround speaker placement. I have attached a couple of scenarios I was thinking of.
At the top of the drawings you see a 4 foot wall. Should I mount one speaker there just under the counter top or just put them on the...
I've been looking into getting a HT set up in my room for a while, but the current layout doesn't seem like it'd work. I'm looking to get JBL set up with x2 590 or 580/ x2 530 / 520C / 250P or A120P / Denon AVR S940H. The room is around 1000~1050 sqft. Though, I'm considering if I should go for...
My room is 15' x 25'. My 7.1 system speakers are all floor standing of one sort or another. My ceiling is plaster, but it is the first floor with a second floor above. I will be adding 4 height channels.
The Atmos discussions I have seen show in ceiling speakers just in front of and just behind...
Good afternoon, We are rebuilding part of our master bedroom. The area we sleep in is raised two steps above the rest of the master bedroom. We have a pass through fireplace being installed and there are 5' wide steps on either side leading up to the sleeping area. I have attached a copy of...
I'm looking to buy Klipsch floor standing speakers with built in or separate Dolby Atmos modules...I have 10 foot ceilings...If I build a 7 foot high storage loft over where I plan to put the speakers, will it kill the functionality of D.A. modules ? ? ?
I am installing a 5.1.2 Atmos system in my home theater. The builder installed speaker wire outlets at a height of 6' on the wall for the front speakers, and at the 8.5' ceiling height for the surrounds (middle and rear). I am installing in-ceiling speakers for the Atmos set using the middle...
Hello everyone. I am way behind in all things audio/video. I am 48 and just now doing my first set-up.
The last 2 weeks I have acquired a used Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A740, a Sony 4k blu-ray player, and a 5.2 Elac Debut 2.0 speaker package (50% off from Best Buy). A 55" 4k tv will be next. I know...
Hi everyone,
So I’m trying to finally install my speakers after 11 years in my place.
I can’t handle the floor standing setup so I reworded everything and that has made a heck of a difference in sound quality, but I am torn as to where to mount the speakers on the wall.
I am aiming to...
Hi Group,
I built a small home theater room recently and have a question regarding sound treatment for a small room. I created six panels using roxul insulation recently and have positioned the panels in the front and rear based on research. It sounds great so far and I'm happy with the sound...
Hi Everyone..
I m getting a new construction home and I m planning to get a 7.2.4 speaker pre-wire in the great room from the builder. My great room dimensions are 19 ft * 24 ft and it extends into the Kitchen after 24 ft.. I m planning to use the following speakers with Denon x6400 Receiver...
Hi all,
We are building a new house and this is our second home theater. My first one I did myself as a newbie so I'm still learning. I will be wiring in all the speaker wire in a couple of weeks and I'm wondering how I should be placing my speakers. We have 2 rows of seating with another...
I was talking with my distributor and we were discussing the Atmos speaker layout with a 9.2.4 system and he was told by Dolby that they changed the rear location of the ceiling speaker and it should now be placed to the left and right of the seating position instead of in the rear as shown in...
By now hopefully some of you have seen the new Denon X8500H, and wow is it NICE. I'm already scheming on how I'm going to break the news to my wife that this is going to be the new baby that runs my home theater! Anyway, I'm nearly finished with my basement home theater, and I initially wired...
I just bought a home with my wife and am renovating. Wehave an open floor concept and I bought a 70 inch TV a few days ago, and want a surround sound to add to the experience. I have an open attic to wire speakers, but have no clue what speakers to buy or where to mount the surrounds. My budget...
I recently upgraded from 5.1.2 to 5.1.4 and I'm wondering if moving my rear heights will improve atmos. My room is small as well, only 14x12x8'.
My front heights are built into my onkyo fronts, but I have the onkyo skh410's for rear heights. I currently have them mounted on the walls to the...

Can anyone tell me where the best place to stick the rear surrounds is in this...
I just bought a 9 channel Denon X4300H to upgrade from 5.1.2 to 5.1.4. My 5.1.2 arrangement has been awesome but I'm worried about the rear placement.
I'm using Onkyo atmos enabled modules for rear (fronts have upward firing built in) but my rears are mounted flat on side walls right next to...
I started off with 2 inexpensive Polk PSW505 subs. Not bad but I had them turned up pretty high and they would make the wind noise with lower frequencies. So I added an old JBL 250W down firing sub up front. Not much of a difference so I removed it. I bought a DB meter and did the sub crawl...
