In ceiling surround sound speakers let you enjoy that nice diffuse rear and even side channel information even when the room doesn t make it easy to place speakers.

In ceiling surround speakers placement.

Left and right speakers placement. According to dolby s recommended placement surround speakers should be placed just behind the listening position and range from 90 to 110 degree from the center line. So while we recommend in ceiling surrounds but never for the main left right center channels there are some caveats to consider and some general guidelines for purchasing them. You can t move ceiling speakers in the same way as normal speakers so it s worth thinking about placement options that are suitable for now but will also work in the future.

If you want that these two right and the left speakers create a little bit of surrounding sound for you. Place the front left and right speakers at an equal distance from your main listening position in front of your tv lcr ceiling speakers are the best option for this although a good ceiling speaker with a pivoting tweeter will also work. I am planning to upgrade my system to atmos 5 1 2. Then you have to adjust them in proper angles.

We are wanting to add 2 rear in ceiling surround speakers on the slope of the cathedral ceiling and eliminate the 2 rear surround bookshelf speakers. Surround sound in ceiling speaker placement front in ceiling speakers aren t the best choice for a home theater because they lessen the impact of sound coming from the screen if you re going that route though be sure to install all the speakers 2 3 feet away from the wall in order to avoid excess reflected sound.
