I just followed the recommendation of Audyssey -- all speakers toed in except for the surround speakers (iyong nasa sides).

The logic is that sq deteriorates as you are more off-axis to the speakers.

Also, if you run Audyssey MultEQ and the speakers are substantially off-axis, MultEQ may try to excessively raise the level of the tweeters, which will sound harsh.

TYVM sir mark, just toed in mine and i like the sound better :)

the mains can also be 45 degrees right?  so it's possible in some layouts that both are in the same position, iba lang height?

so from a typical height of ears (39-42"), how high are the height surrounds (measured to tweeter height correct?)?

also, meron po ba kayong formula for me to use to figure out the degrees using triangular geometric formulas?
before i printed out the degrees and then used a string

The mains are at around 30 degrees. Heights at 45 degrees and Wides at 60 degrees.

Madali lang kasi pag 30 degrees, one side of triangle is twice the other side while pag 60 degrees, reverse sya. Kapag 45 degrees, each side of triangle is same length.

For mains:
Main listening position (MLP) at center line. Take distance to side wall. Measure double that distance along the side wall to the front. At that position, place a string towards the MLP. Place masking tape along that line. You can locate your mains anywhere along that line.

For heights:
MLP at center line. Take distance to side wall. Measure same distance along side wall towards the front. At that position, measure distance to MLP. Height of tweeters is same distance + height of ears.

For wides:
MLP at center line. Take distance to side wall. Measure half the distance along side wall towards the front. At that position, place a string towards the MLP. Place masking tape along that line. You can locate your wides anywhere along that line.

At 11.4 this is a new level of experience.  :o

The best way to describe is that the movie is no longer enveloping you...instead you're virtually inside the movie!!  :D

sir streetsmart, thank you very much for the touch kanina sa dream theater mo. never thought makapasok ako sa home theater nakikita ko dito sa pdvd. grabe ganda nun demo ng U-571 and Top Gun. Avatar was surreal!

i can only imagine your electricity bill with the 4 subs. your air conditioner was cool with the glossy red color.

na-inspire ako mag-invest ng one good piece of equipment lang every year and build my dream theater brick by brick. wish lang i had the space. medyo masikip dito sa condo ko.

AFAIK, right now, only the Denon 4810 can handle 11.1 channels. The 4 subs pass through an SVS AS-EQ1 subwoofer equalizer.

even the avsforum confirmed this. since sir mark mentioned to me there are good reads in avsforum, i have been doing so. so far only the DENON 4810 can do front wide and front height set up at the same time. mine can only do either front wide or front height, I have to choose which one i prefer.

If those pictures are taken only by using just a DVD player and not a Blu-ray player...then you really have indeed a nice and well connected set-up...

Congrats!!!

Now time to relax...
