Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Weird QS4 situation

Ah, sorry, I had through you had one surround at the rear and the other at the side, which is what I'm looking at doing. Because of the strange shape of my room, the side speaker would be just as far behind me as the rear speaker would be, only the tweeters and woofers would be firing in different directions.

Yeah, I was wondering about that. Lots of nice new speakers in that room since the last pictures were taken.

Maybe the ebony speakers don't show up against the black walls and Randy had to Photoshop the old speakers back in.

Hey guys I know I know.....I've been very busy at work and other things.

John, you are partially right. Taking pictures of my mansfields was bad enough down there. Even with the walk out windows letting light in and all the room lights on, it was just to dark for my cheap digital camera. I had to use night mode to get the ones you see on the website, which let more light in the camera.

This week I am on-call for work, which sucks because they don't pay us, and I have to potentially take calls for other apps/servers I don't support. AND, getting calls from people in Sydney, Hong Kong, Singapore, London, etc... in the middle of the night is not fun.

I will try to get some pics soon...

MD, I'd just be guessing, of course, as to how each setup would sound in your room, but be that as it may, my preference would lean toward the height of the wall mounting rather than the symmetry of the mounting on stands. Keep in mind that the mid-woofers, which handle the majority of the sound, fire up and down, so that will be identical for both speakers in your proposed wall mounting. The tweeters will have different dispersion paths, but my thought is that the difference at the listening position wouldn't be very significant. Mount the left surround on the closet wall as far to the left as possible, to match the right surround in at least that respect.
