Best Speaker Placement with your Couch Against The Wall
Forum Rules. Login Register. Remember Me? Results 1 to 11 of Thread: 5. I had checked repeatedly to make sure that all speakers were in phase and had adjusted the Center EQ feature on my Yamaha rx-v endlessly to no avail. The improvement was that dramatic. Continuity during left-right pans in the rear channels was also greatly improved, as were back to front transitions. I now can get the sensation of something flying in from directly over head and toward the TV despite the fact that my left and right rears are mounted at just a tick above ear level to either side of the sofa.
Previously, overhead sounds seem to come partly from both left and right rears with a hole in the middle. The depth of images in front of the listening position is also greatly improved. Hope this helps some of you out there. It sure made my day. This Guy. Yep, same thing happened to me, although not as dramtic as yours. I'm with you. I have 11 feet behind my couch and one or two center rear speakers just destroyed my degree experience. For me 5. Please, no flame wars.
Good to hear that your experience coincides with a lot of the advice that I've gotten from others on this and other boards -- and that is to get your 5. The imaging is already difficult enough as it is in a 5. Yeah, I wish I had found out about this sooner. It really does improve the experience. I've also experimented with rear surround placement recently. The indirect and reflected sound gives the sensation of a larger space around the sofa, with effect sounds seeming to come from far to the sides or behind, as opposed to the direct sound which was very obviously originating mere feet from my head.

I've found that the rear channel s add a fill that provides a sense of "seating depth" that is very cinema like to me.
It also adds to sound effects. I've heard things splash into water behind my head, doors creak, and even planes fly over with startling realism. Glad it came up. Funny you should mention Master and Commander. Replies: 4 Last Post: , PM. Replies: 1 Last Post: , AM.

I'll grant that it's rare for you to notice it directly, it's usually much more subtle, but some movie soundtracks make good use of the rears. Also; For parties, and just plain casual listening, I set my system for 6 speaker stereo 7 in my case and it creates a huge "sweet spot" so nobody is too overloaded with the output of just one speaker.
A poorly set up 6. I've always considered overhead speakers an annoance, and I would never reccomend such an instalation unless it's intended use is for MUZAK only. But; IMHO a properly set up 7.
The two variables to keep in mind with the quality of the "7. If the room is like what toenail describes with the sofa pushed against the backwall, then it's just not worth the effort to bring those extra speakers into the mix because you're talking about a lot of speaker alignments that can introduce time domain and frequency response distortions. Also, the soundtrack is an important variable because if the surrrounds were mixed with minimal separation in the channels, then turning on the back surround channels will collapse the back soundfield into a narrow area.
A properly setup 7. Another thing to keep in mind with movie theaters is that they use arrays of surround speakers because you're talking about big auditoriums with the majority of the audience sitting in locations not in any kind off "sweet spot. The kind of encirclement effect that you describe is possible with a 5. Originally Posted by Woochifer "Master and Commander" is an example of how a 5.
If I were voting it would get an Academy Award. The first engagement with the Acheron is one of the most visceral scenes this side of beach scene in Saving Private Ryan, and for some strange reason seems even more harrowing even though we're years removed from the time frame. I use it as a referance standard for HT cinema performance, and it's a real test of what you've got.
I hook it all up for this one, which includes over 2, watts of dedicated sub power, my maggie's as added mains, and the full HT system. The effect is nothing short of being lashed to the mast as the cannon fire rakes the deck, and splinters of wood, lashings, and bodies fly everywhere. I agree that such an experience is even better in some respects than seeing it in a theater, although I truly feel that the large theater is still the BEST place to see a movie.

Some would say the car you drive is a direct reflection of your personality. If that's the case and you see it that way, there's no way you plan to be stuck with a cookie-cutter vehicle that is just the same as so many others on the roadway. Car customization sure can be fun, but when it comes down to the brass text, car customization offers a lot of advantages. One of the first places to start making the vehicle you drive all your own is at the wheels. Customizing your vehicle from the ground up is easy, since there are so many different rim, wheel, and tire choices available, especially if you work with a cutting-edge supplier.
