Hi everyone, this is my first post and I'm really looking forward to some feedback. Here is my situation. I dont have a dedicated room for a home theater, but what I wanted to do was put a home theater/surround sound system in my living room (which is where I watch the most of my movies). Now here is the problem. It is not an enclosed room and the placement of the tv is in the corner.
Let me try and explain (since I cant seem to find a way to add a file). Imagine a square. On this square, there are only two walls: the one in front of you and the one to your right. The wall on your left and behind you dont exist because they open to another part of the room. There is a entertainment center cutout (where I put the tv) in the top left corner. Due the layout of the room, I had to purchase an L shaped couch that has it back against the right wall and where the back wall should be. Because of this, the tv is faced diagnally towards the back right corner.
The room also high celings (about 12') and wood floors. Given the lack of walls and wood floors, I figured it is best to use in ceiling speakers (left/right front and left/right rear).
Now my question - where do I place the in ceiling speakers to get a balanced sound when I sit on this couch. If I place the speakers to match a speaker in the corners of the squares, it seems as if the sound would be off centered. But if I place it with the assumption the the TV should be the top middle of the box, the in ceiling speakers would like weird and misplaced in the ceiling.
Thoughts? Thanks!
