turn down the rear speakers to a level so that they are only noticed when they are off as opposed to when they are on, much like a subwoofer. otherwise the soundfeild will have a rearward bias. you'll know when you have it right because the soundfeild will shift back to the front. very common rookie mistake, help your pal out next time you visit.
5.1 vs 3 channel???
Hi
I am building a system in my finished basement. Is there a way/equipment to just use just fronts and a center channel for ht and just use the fronts for listening to sacd? Will I miss/lose anything watching dvds? I am confused, when you go to a concert the sound is in front of you, not behind you.
I have not been impressed with the ht systems I have heard. The other day I watched a football game at a friends house and quite frankly, the sound that came out of the rear speakers was annoying?
Thanks
