    Nice video, but impractical. Most people I have seen do not have the option to set the speakers up in a circle in this manner. This is where tuning the receiver for the distances comes in hand. So while this video gives a nice basic explanation of positioning, more than likely, if someone is spending money for surround, they are going to have a receiver that will compensate for speakers being at odd distances in a rectangular room, and in most cases, the receivers come with a special mic to put at the center of the listening area, and it will auto tune the speakers for you. Just think about an actual movie theater. It isn't a circle.

    • @rabarebra
      @rabarebra ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you use that microphone that measure this distances that sometimes follow with the AV-receiver. I've seen NONE using this, and the surround is all madness. In most cases it is not even used as surround, but it is still in stereo with some surround-FX applied. LOL 😂
      Edit: The problem with these uneven mic-measurements is that you will get into odd phase-shifts and weird sounds (filter characteristics).

      @@rabarebra Moving yourelf is unlikely to be practical, if you have a decent sized screen, you will be atleast 10-12ft away from the screen, so to put your rear speakers equi distnance away would require a 20x20ft room (and, acoustically, a sqaure room is a bad idea). A system shouldnt ruin the sound simply by delaying the channel a few ms, I am setting my home cinema up now, but my Blu-ray has indvidual speaker delay on, and whilst I have only been using stereo til now, I have delayed the sound to get lip sync. If your receiver is ruining the sound, maybe you need to upgrade?

    • @csimet
      @csimet 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Agreed. Few people have a large enough room to allow equal spacing. Most rooms do not permit enough space for the surround speakers (rear and/or sides). This is where adjustments are needed via the AVR. I wish I could have a dedicated media room to setup the perfect environment and sit in the center.
      There is very little professional level YT content dedicated to non-optimal room designs and are almost always geared towards people with the dedicated/perfect room (again, allowing center seating).

  • @konior21
    @konior21 6 ปีที่แล้ว +88

    In a 5.1 setup the surround speakers go to your sides facing the listening position. When you move up to a 7.1 THEN you add the rear speakers, not the other way around as this video suggests.
    And all your speakers don't NEED to be equal distances. Any good receiver is going to have room correction software that will measure and account for the distance of your speakers.

      room correction is a feature in the better "home theatre" systems. no pro system relies on that. if you have a good amp, you build your house around it. unless you cant pay for that, you shouldnt listen to music or watch movies on a good system. you are just not worth it

    • @charleyweinhardt
      @charleyweinhardt 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      the only issue with delay is lip sync. for each foot of difference between the farthest speaker and the closest speaker there will be a 1 millisecond additional delay. the furthest speaker will fire first and then the closest speaker will fire a few milliseconds after so you hear them at the same time particularly if your rears far far away you will have lip sync issues between the front speakers and screen. your average screen has a video feed response time of 5 ms so nowadays(not input lag), it is a good idea to not have a difference speaker distance per foot more than the response time or so. I have always preferred to have my "surround" channels(which I prefer to call rears usually) about 120 degrees with 5.1. If adding "rear" for 7.1 I'd bring the surrounds to 90° and raise them up so a bit so tweeters hit all listeners and delays are more even. The correct distance between fronts to sides to rears is important, 80° like the video shows is no good better to have them at 110 so tweeters hit each listener and have rears straight behind pointing towards the center channel.

    In a perfect world this would be great but viewing areas often arent so cut and dry to enable this set up. For example if your normal viewing position is right up against a wall your gonna have 1 speaker way closer to you than the other. That's when you have to tweak out pot on these speakers and it becomes far more difficult.

    I know this is an older video, but even processors back when this video was made account for distance and time delay so you don't need everything to be perfectly symmetrical. Your subs go where they have the best bass response. Your processor will take care of distances and delay. Of course this is assuming your run something like Dirac or Audyssey.

    I can appreciate the logic here, especially with pulling the FR-L & FR-R speakers forward to line up with the center channel... which I'll do tonight!
    However, in virtually every video I've seen thus far on this subject, there exists this fantasy world where all this extra space exists behind the listening position. Not for me.
    I'm like many others, who have a tiny place. My couch is right up against the damn wall. No luxury of said large room, but I still want my 7.2.2.
    My surround L&R Surround are to my 9:00 & 3:00, on their own speaker stands for now, just to build the soundstage.
    My Surround Backs or Atmos' (or whatever we call them) are at ear level atop the far back corners of the couch, because I haven't quite decided where they should actually be (I'm using old Bose 2001s from a galaxy far far away... drivers facing me, tweeters facing ceiling... I figured they're Direct/Reflecting design would be ideal as Atmos surrounds.)
    I used the Audessey mic setup on my Marantz NR1711, & thus far it sounds pretty bad ass. But if I'm going to change the Surround Backs to Atmos Heights, what's the best location, when I'm in a small square space with very little area behind the listening position? Is it even worth changing at this point? If my environment is small, is moving those 2 going to create that big a difference? Feeling a bit to lazy to run more wiring & find an elevated mounting solution, but might try it in the future...

      @nagorak666 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      This is absolutely true. The optimal placement is really just something to aspire to. Basically, try your best to get as close to it as possible. However, unless you have a dedicated home theater room, you basically have to "make do" with what you have. That may mean one surround speaker much further away than the other, or the surrounds not quite optimally placed. The good thing is our hearing is not so accurate, and the placement in the surrounds is not so precise that things will be thrown off too much by having the speakers slightly out of alignment. Room correction in your AV receiver can generally fix any difference in speaker distance--it may not be 100%, but it will be good enough. The end result may not be "ideal", but it will be close enough to get the job done. For the most part unless you do a really horrendous job of placing the speakers or have an absolutely terrible room to work with, you'll end up with a decent outcome.

    Could you please advise on choosing between Home theatre soundbar samsung HW-Q900A and Q870A(2021). Both are in same price the range.
    HW-Q900A has 7.1.2 channel sound without rear speakers.
    HW-Q870A has 5.1.4 channel sound with wireless rear speakers.

    In a 5.1 and a 7.1 its not a magic triangle its a magic X meaning fronts are in line with the rears your center goes though the center of the x and your left and right surrounds go though the middle of that same x and your listening area is in the middle and make sure you turn your fronts and rears 30 degrees out from the wall do not make them flush with the wall this set up works well with movies music and if you have it hookup games as well.
    Hope this is a better understanding, this is the exact setup i use for years just make sure your fronts and rears towers are off the floor bass hates carpet with powered subs this doest apply at all but find a good location for you sub or subs
    This works with any size room in a house appartments your going to have to adjust to your environment

      If you're doing a 5.1 it should be okay. It's not optimal, but it'll be fine. If you're doing 7.1, yeah you can't have your back against a wall. Small room, if one wants surrounds, 5.1 is preferable.

    Wow! That surely simplified it. Now if you could please offer me some advice. I am doing 7.1. I have (3) 5.5 driver towers in front. Matching center. 2 bipole speaker and in the market for the other (2) to complete set. And I have a 10” sub. My question 1 is do I place the bipoles in rear or sides? And recommendation for the missing 2. Small bookshelf? Etc. thanks. I’m using a Yamaha R8 series receiver

    This is an excellent video!! When I finished my basement space, I ran 7.1 wiring in a layout like you show at 3:20 (with sides at 80 deg, due to layout limitations) and it is very good for side-to-side, but the rear speakers do not seem to fill in enough to shift the effect behind the listener. I wonder if I should aim the side speakers backward, to a point behind the center position a bit, to enhance the surround effect? My speakers are at mounted 90 deg to the wall so focal point is slightly in front of listener right now, so I am wondering if it is worth getting speaker mounts to allow aiming these back. A gain of 10 degrees seems like not enough to be worth it, but if focusing back a even further would help, I would consider it. (e.g. if two people sit 3 ft apart, I would aim each side speaker at the closest person, rather then a midpoint between the listeners, for about a 20 deg angle to the wall)
    Another option I was considering was to investigate if my receiver could treat rear speakers to same mix as side (e.g. 5.1 mix with "dual" side speakers), and then balance the levels (side and rear) so I could create a "virtual" speaker over my shoulder (between these). However, I do not think this is doable with my Yamaha RX-V673 receiver, and perhaps the tweak in the paragraph above would be enough, and allow true 7.1 to continue to be used.
    Appreciate your thoughts/experience.

    This is also assuming that the couch is in the middle of the room when 95% of the time its off the back wall, Id like you guys to talk about how the speakers are affected when this is the case. It is with me but I already combated this problem.I happen to have a 11.4 , 7.4.4 .But i also happen to have 4 heights which i can switch off with ceiling and front wides Thanks

    Hi, on 5.1 I ve put my surround speaker 1.5/2 feet above ear level, is it right? Sometime is fine, same case not. Dolby specifies this but most people say the opposite leaving surround on ear level, but they are distracting..

    • @rabarebra
      @rabarebra ปีที่แล้ว

      I'd always subtract the rear by 25% in level. They usually mix rear content too loud. That is my experience. Adjust how YOU like it.
