Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater where to mount qs-8's

ok, as you can see, i dont have many options, i was thinking of mounting them on the couboard above the bed, and on the closet door, however that would be a big distance difference from side to side (the one on the coubard would be 12" further) i know i can just adject the levels..but i was wondering what are your opinions? also my current surrounds are mounted in the ceiling at an angle:

would that work for the qs-8s too?

I would mount them on the back wall pretty much directly across from the M60s. QS8s work pretty much anywhere, but I suspect they would sound best there.

hmm that would be ok, except for on the side where the closet is, the closet door might hit it, and i would only be like 1' away from the closet would that screw up how the tweeter disperses the sound?> thnx for the suggestion

What about on both sides of the chair?

Darren, ditto Peter's suggestion if you can be careful with the closet door. Sitting very near the back wall there's little difference between surrounds on the back wall separated as widely as possible and surrounds on the side walls near the back wall. A foot of separation from the closet should allow enough "bounce room".

i dont think i want to do both sides of the chair as that would be too close together...i think im gonna end up goin with either sides on the back wall...i have a while to think about this though as im not getting the qs-8's till augusts (just bought m60's, vp150 is comming in july)

thnx much for the help

Assuming two doors on the closet. Mount on the door away from the wall. Closer to the center of the closet rather than centered on the door. The bracket mount should suffice. Mount the other 8 on the opposite wall at same position, Mount them about a foot above ear level, or a little more. They should be a little forward of your listening position. Adjust channel levels to compensate for distance.

make sure you allow enough room for the top driver to breath, don't place it to close to the ceiling...

ok, if i do what bugbitten said, they would be about 3 feet infront of me. anyone second this suggestions?

Too far in front, still thinking!
