I have a few questions on how to set up my room. Here is a drawing of the room I have to work with (and how it is currently set up).
SUB = Subwoofer
S = Speakers
DVD = Receiver/DVD Player/CD Player/VCR
The red area on the top view is where the angled ceiling is cut out for a window that is against that outside wall. The green areas on the top view are doors (as is the side view). From what I have read here, I would be better off moving the speakers/TV/etc to the right side of the room (turn everything 90 degrees to the right). I will have to do some wiring, but that isn't a big deal. Do you think that would produce a better set up?
Also, the TV is a Hitachi 32 inch and I am wondering how high people usually have their TV off of the floor? I need to watch the height because of the angle of the ceiling (my Center channel sits on top of the TV).
How high do you place the rear speakers? I have read that it is best to put them to the side, but should they be the 2 or 3 feet above the listening area?
The two front speakers are the Inifinity IL40's, with the IL36C Center and IL120 Subwoofer. The two rears are IL10's. I have the Avia CD and the Ratshack SPL meter to help calibrate.
As this is my first full setup, any suggestions are welcome.
