Hello All.

I ordered some new Axiom speakers a couple of weeks ago (M22 - Fronts, M2 - Rear, QS4 - Surround, VP150 - Center). And I am trying to figure out where to place them. I am trying to make it fit according to the "An Essential Guide to Home Theater Layout", except the size of my room is limiting.

I am in the process of building my own stands. I have already built stands for the surrounds, but I need to build the stands for the rears. The problem is I can only have the speakers about a foot and half away from the back of the couch (according to the layout they should be about 3ft behind the couch).

My question is: Should I build stands that allow me to angle the rear speakers (M2's) down towards couch since they'll be so close, or should I make the speakers face straight forward?

The bottom of my QS4's are 5'2" from the ground and I was wanting to build the other stands to match these.

Any suggestions?

It's my first post...could someone tell me how to add pictures to the post?

Thanks for the help!
