What about Cinemascope or Cinerama?

In today's standard cinemascope is 2.35 or 2.39. The old cinemascope (films upto 2.66) went obsolete I believe back in the year I was born.

Hey Randy... I was taking a look at your website.. what are you using to hold up your center channel? I looked and looked for something like that, but no luck.

Just some cheap L shaped shelf brackets from Menards (like Home Depot, Lowes). The ones I picked have a black snap on cover.

If you look at the pictures of my surrounds, it is the same bracket.

Nice! I'll have to use that for one of my surrounds! Thanks for the tip. Your left surround looks tilted downwards - is it? If so how did you go about it? With a spacer?

As I am investing in the 180 very soon, I think I'll go with the brackets for now... but I'll buy the 180 stand (unless someone has some ideas on a safe way to put it on the wall that they'd like to share! I would think that it's a lot to ask brackets to hold up 57lbs, no?)

There are shelf brackets out there rated to over 100lbs each. You just have to look for them. They have a supporting arm that makes it look like a triangle.

I wouldn't consider mounting the VP180 without a shelf to support the weight in the front.

my Q's are not angled downward, I assume the picture just made it look that way. The bottom driver is 7ft off the floor, the speakers are attached to a boxed in area the hides the heating/cooling runs.

Randy drinks whenever he photographs his speakers.

I wish I had 10% of your equipment.
