Correct position for Left & Right HIGH speakers

fabianlupidi

I'm mounting the speakers I've bought. RTiA7, CSiA6, Fxi4 and RtiA1 for L&R high. I'll use them with an 55" TV and an 120" screen projection. I'd like to know the best position for the L&R high, as I'm NOT using Side surround, only Rear Surround (Fxi4). Thanks.

Sorry just saw that you were referring to the high position and I haven't used that Jin my setup.

OP..........

Any luck finding the answer else where yet? I am thinking of adding RTiA1s to my set up as Heights as well. Didnt know if they needed to be near the ceiling or if above the fronts was just fine.

I remember reading that they should be above the LR speakers pointed at a 45 degree angle to your listening position. Not sure what height that turns out to be.

That height requirement is dependent on room size, listening position and so on. the only constant is that the height speakers should be 1-1.5 feet offset (outside of mains). The ideal is to create a more spacious front sound (depth)

Ideally you want the front heights set at 45 degrees from the listening position, both horizontally and vertically. Otherwise as close to the ceiling as possible and as close to 45 degrees as possible. If your mains are at a 35 degree angle this would be about 1.5 to 2 fet outside the mains.
