Hi,
I just moved into a condo, and the living room area is set up very differently than my old apartment. My apartment was perfect in that the back sofa was about 10 feet from the tv and faced it head on (with a futon to the side).
Now my room is set up so the TV is in a corner, and the entertainment stands jut out at 90 degree angles from either side. Then the 2 sofas complete a square. I hope I explained that well.
The problem is, there is no 'center' seat now. I have the surround speakers on stands behind the sofas, but you innevitably sit real close to one of them when you sit down, thus that speaker overwhelms your listening experience.
Does anyone have any helpful hints on setting up a system in this environment? I will be getting a sofa table soon, and this I will be setting up the 6th (rear center) speaker soon. Hopefully that will help a little (though it won't do a thing for 5.1 discs liks SACDs).
Any ideas?
