Ideal Surround Sound Placement

Patrick really pissed off some professional Rerecording Mixers, or at least one that worked on Rambo, Blade, Twilight and Van Wilder, with his 'noise' comment about surround sound channels last week... he calls 'mea culpa' and discusses ideal placement (instead of his favorite hack for small rooms) for rear surround speakers in 5.1 and surround and back speakers in 7.1 systems.

Recession Selection

Inexpensive HDTV wall mounts! HDTV's need be seen at a comfortable viewing height and not on the floor. Sure you can get an entertainment center, shelf, or a stack of bricks to hold up your TV but really wallmounts are great way to hang a TV, save valuable floor space for shelves or a center channel speaker. Check out Monoprice.com and Costco for great deals on quality wall mounts!
