okay, I am still confused. If the qs8 is supposed to be slightly behind the listening area, why wouldnt the wall that is slightly behind the listening area(where current surrounds are)be sufficient? Just trying to make sure there are no other options since ceiling mounting is a major endeavor for me. My family room only has 3 walls and is open to the kitchen where the 4th wall would be. If someone has any other mounting suggestions, I would appreciate it. I can be reached at 704-507-9360. HELP!!
