I have my sorrows sitting on the floor pointing up at the ceiling behind the sofa. I had to raise the volume some but during the movie you can’t really tell where the sound is coming from anyways. I think it actually has a better effect because the sound comes from behind the furniture I’m kind of spooks you
How bad is it to place 5.1 rears from behind rather than on the sides?
I’m building a new setup and planned placing my 5.1 rears in-wall directly on the sides and perhaps pushing the sofa forward a bit while watching a movie. I especially wanted inwalls to avoid my youngsters messing with them and bought the Morel xbw600 two days ago for that. But renovating now, I see the only option to make them in-wall is behind me in 90 degrees (separated up to 3 meters apart).
So I’m facing a dilemma: do I place them behind or do I return them and get satellites instead that I’ll place on the sides (1.5 meters from me in each direction)? What do you smart people advise?
