Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Help with surround speakers placement

I used to have my QS8s wall-mounted at maybe 6 feet off the ground (strictly speaking one was wall mounted and one balanced on a pile of soup cans, but let's not go there). These days I have them at ear level on stands.

Going only from memory, I think I preferred having them mounted higher since a lot of the surround content in HT is overhead/above (as opposed to gaming where it seems to be mostly people/things sneaking up behind you). I don't get as much of the "bullets zinging overhead" effect with the surrounds at ear level.
