Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Surround speaker location challenge

Speaker location, especially the surrounds, is often challenging in the real life, but non-optimum home theatre enclosures. My own works pretty well for the centre channel (Axiom VP150 v2), the left/right (Axiom M22 on-wall), and the sub-woofer (PSA V1801).

In a 5.1 system, your surround speakers are best placed to the left and right of your listening position. Aim them directly towards you for the best sound. If side placement isn't practical, place your surround speakers a few feet behind your listening position and face them forward.
