Best position for rear channel.


I have a Home theatre system consisting or Martin Logan CLS11Z front L&R,Theatre centre and depth sub, and CLS11z rear L&R. The null zone for the rear speakers doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions.Room size -22ft X 17 X 9.

Lacee,

Can you explain what you mean by the null zone does not work? Are your rear speakers dipoles, or is this something different?

Thanks
Bruce
Lacee,

I would recommend trying a 7.1 speaker set up. With two speakers directly to the sides of your primary listening position (+- 90 deg), and another two speakers spread apart in the rear of the room, behind your listening position (about +- 160 deg), you will get much better surround envelopment than using only two surround speakers.

You will need DPLIIx and /or Logic 7 to properly drive a 7.1 speaker system, since there are no 7.1 sources, but in my own experience 7.1 is well worth it.
