What are your views on mounting my rear speakers upside down, as they are up higher on the wall when your in the seated position instead of looking at the bottom of the speaker you would see the nice curved top bit

Good idea or just keep them all the right way up?

    You could try it, and if you like it fine. I think you would have better results mounting them ouright on your wall and angling them down though. Of course if your furniture is very close to the wall you could place them below the furniture, and point the speakers straight up. That may work better, but who knows.

    would it be unappealing if he mounted them on the ceiling pointing down, and at the proper angle to the listening position of course?
