Need help but let me first provide some background on hardware and roomsize followed with my question.
Iam going in for a HT in my walkout basement. The dimensions of the room are 15.6 x 21. Across the width of the room is a window and a door to walk out of the basement. Along the length it has a wall running on one side while the other wall has a window. We have carpet in the basement and wooden blinds on the door and the window.
The projector screen will hang across the 15.6' width. Will lose some of the window if the screen is permanently drawn down (Elite M100XWH W93" H 59").
Project: Optoma HD20 (Ceiling Mounted)
AV : Onkyo HT RC260
Speakers: Mirage nanosat 5.1
Sony Blu ray BDP-S570
Question: I know the Mirage speakers are omnipolar. But on this forum and other sites I have read the front speakers must be mounted at ear level. I want to ceiling mount all my 5.1 speaker (including the center speaker) upside down. Will it negatively affect the sound quality. If yes, what are the better options. I dont want to rewire the entire basement since cost is a constraint. I would like to do it before Xmas as a surprise for my family.
