Quoted: Roger that, BadAim!
Nice pron, AssaultRifler, thanks. Question: why are the front speakers up so high? I've always tried to keep them level with the top of the screen so that the sound stage stayed vertically centered on the screen.
Thanks,

Couple answers:
1. my house is a transitional, e.g. half of what would be the second story is open to the first floor, giving the first floor way high ceilings
2. I didn't know enough to ask where the installers were going to put the speakers, I had the house prewired by a company and after closing they came back and installed the speakers, I assumed they knew what they were doing.
3. The rear speakers couldn't be at lower level as you see by the second pic, so maybe the first ones were at the same level as the rears?
Anyway they sound great to my ears, in retrospect I would of had made a few changes:
- make the columns in the rear wider so rear speakers could be mounted lower
- mount the front speakers lower to match the height of the rears
- install a 3rd rear speaker (tricky if done at a lower level as seen in pic) so I'd be Dolby 6.1 capable instead of Dolby 5.1 capable. The prewiring and installation of the speakers was done in fall of 1999, don't think Dolby 6.1 existed back then.
