Looking forward to seeing your new Panny!

Just build one

Great setup!!! But I am confused as well. Your surrounds (11's) are facing the same direction as your fronts?

move your side surrouds to the actual sides though, otherwise it can mess with the soundstage.

Awesome new gear! You must be pretty happy right now...

In regards to the posts about moving your side speakers, and not having much room... How about moving 2 of the 11's back as the rears and wall mount the ones you have as rears now, or leave them on the stands against the side walls?

-DLS- · 05-03-2010, 06:11 PM

GeorgeFireEagle - Very nice man!!

As for the surrounds it is a tough space to work with trying to work around the furniture and stuff. I would even try switching the ADP-390's to the sides and put the 11's to the rears and see which you like better... I guess depending if you matrix all your movies or not then the big rears wouldn't be used so much if you don't. At least the 11's sre firing into the room stil and the 390's would shoot front to back. Looks like the right tweeter on the right ADP-390 is going right into the shelf.

Whatever works for you man either way you got a wicked setup!!

edit: I guess master_8ball beat me to it.

THX setup 7.1

solarrdadd · 05-03-2010, 09:08 PM

on a 7.1(2) setup DTS does show more than the conventional way to do it beyond the conventional way most of us are use to. I commend you George on your choice of setup, of it sounds good to you then it's the right way for you. I love that front 5 you have I'm sure it sounds great.

the above links show two different, unconventional 7.1 setups, not to be confused with the newer 9.1(2) setups.
