The best scenario would be to put them on the sides, without a doubt. They work either way but, Aerial suggests they be mounted on the sides if possible. Is your setup a 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 setup? That will help determine if they should be set at bipolar or dipolar, but you could always experiment to see which sounds better.
Surround Placements Aerial SR-3's HELP
I have a dilema with my surrounds, the Aerial SR-3s.
The speakers have to be 4-5 feet above the listening position, regardless. Not so bad, but here is the deal.
Do I put them on the side of the listening position (which would have about 3 feet to the rear wall) or do I put them on the BACK wall 3 feet from the listening position?
These speakers can be configured into BIPOLE or DIPOLE.
Which should be used in which scenario?
Thanks,
Dan
