I am almost embarrassed to post this with all dedicated theaters here and on AVS Forum. I am looking for a 5.1 system at least. However, the boss has put aesthetics and budget far above sound quality on the priority list. So we are likely looking at MonoPrice or HTD speakers. And if a speaker placement is less than ideal but much better aesthetically then that is what will win out.
I have a small 1600 sqf house with a open living room, kitchen and dining room. We have a built in cabinets which we will wall mount a TV. Where shall I install my speakers?
The cabinets are centered to the open wall and since there is a coat closet on the far right of the wall the cabinets are not in the center of the wall and the TV will this be not in the middle of this wall.
Should Left and Right be centered to the TV and not the wall I assume? Should I put them inside the cabinetry or outside on the wall/ceiling?
Should the rear speakers be centered to the room or center to the TV?
Thanks for any ideas.
Edit: Added pictures of the build in cabinet as well as a floor plan for the living room. The living room size is about 12 feet by 16 feet.
