QS8 surround positioning - 05/16/03 07:08 PM
I built stands for the QS8s that put their tweeters at roughly the same level as those in the M60 mains. Sounds great, looks pretty good, but it's a hassle moving the stands and unrolling all that wire. Additionally, the wife and the 60lb Lab puppy are both pretty clumsy - one day one of those QS8s is likely to take a spill in the dark.
My question: Would mounting one QS8 high up on a side wall, tilted down at the listening position...and
positioning the other QS8 at ear level on the rear wall facing forward...Would that ruin the surround effect I have now?
Maybe the receiver can accomadate for the different distances the QS8s would then be from the listening position, but the speakers will be pointing different directions (one forward, one in) and at different levels.
Any experience with similar radically asymmetrical speaker placements?
