    Don't even get me started on this topic. Every time I come home I cringe at the speaker arangement in the living room. The left and right speakers are always angled totally different ways. One will be facing straight ahead and another at a 45 degree angle. They're also always right up against the wall. Women, my mother in this case. My dad doesn't seem to care. He just sits on his lazy boy, which is in the corner of the room, and listens to music. The speakers aren't even remotely pointing his direction. The chair, not the stereo, dictates where he sits. My parents also don't watch movies too often. I should take a picture while I'm home over Christmas break. Ahhhhh, no more! I'm getting angry!

    I am a lucky guy, a wife who understands a mans needs and agrees to give up a bedroom in our house for my HT.

    A dedicated HT room is a great escape.

    i turned our unfinished basement into a dedicated home theater room. there are no windows and no interuptions. now all i've got to do is put some carpet down and get a new couch.

    By design, the Christmas decorations do not interfere with the speaker setup. My living room opens up into the dining area and I have the rears mounted on the rear wall. The tree is on the side wall adjacent to the fireplace.....I did manage to dodge that bullet.

    My Tree is in a different room, but my wife wanted to take down my center speaker to put other christmas decorations up. She said "It won't make that big of a difference will it?" I could only shake my head and walk away. That worked, because she put the decorations over the fireplace. I am hoping nothing else comes up.

    Have a great holiday.

    Yow!

    I just park the menorah on the table, or sometimes on top of tinfoil on one of my speakers. No muss, no fuss, no blocking the speakers, no pine needles sticking in the grille cloths.

    Happy Hannukah! :)

    (and Merry Christmas, Solstice, generic-winter-holiday, etc...!)
