Looking for some help on how high up I should mount my in wall (L/R) speakers. I am also trying to figure out how high my rear surrounds should sit. The will be facing one another mounted on the wall about 1.5 ft behind viewing position. I am also open to feedback on any other measurements like TV height etc. Thank you in advance

The front speakers should be installed with the tweeters at ear level. You didn’t mention how far the rear speakers will be from the seating, but I like my speakers at least 6 ft. high if they are close. If they are some distance away (6 ft. of further) they can be anywhere from 5 ft. to 9 ft. high.

It’s best if the TV is eye level too, in case that ship hasn’t sailed...

Are you completely locked in on in-wall speakers? You certainly can have regular speakers on stands or floor standing speakers. It will open up your options, and the sound will be better.

Oh, you didn't ask, but I'd put the center as close to the TV as possible, rather than splitting the distance between the TV and the media cabinet.
