Okay, stupid question time. I'm considering purchasing some Paradigm ADP-170's as my rear surrounds. Do you have to wall-mount these speakers? I ask because I'm in an apartment and I'd prefer not to destroy the walls any more than I have to. Is it possible to mount these on stands?
Looking at the ADP-170's in the demo room, they didn't appear to have any hardware on the bottom... they were totally smooth, which leads me to believe that you must wall-mount them. Also, where should these speakers be positioned? I think my side walls are too far out (room is about 15' deep by 25' wide), and there's just a wall behind me. Where do you "aim" the speakers?
Finally, would using 4 dipoles like these be desirable for a 7.1 speaker setup?
So many questions... sorry to be such a n00b. Looking forward to hearing the answers....
