Damn. Wish I had that kind of space but would have to lose the cat regardless.... I too am from a prologic (meg) world so therefore far out of date (who need 5:1 really). Them ears don`t work so well when old anyway but sure your man cave will work out sweet :)
Prologic was actually a very clever, early system. It used two channels for the main speakers, then took everything that was common to both channels and sent that to the center channel. Surround information was derived from an out-of-phase track in the audio. Granted, not discrete digital like you youngsters have :P , but was pretty cool by design.
Spent over £1000 on my AV amp back in the day. My Denon Prologic AV Amp has not let me down for about 20 years now. You get what you pay for
And that's leaving about a third of the room (or more) out of the pic. It's long as fk. :smilie4:Quote:

My rears are all the way back in the corners of my room and it works out fine. Let me know if you'd like any more details, Skiz.Quote:

In laments terms.... Voice/Speech was channeled to center speaker front two speakers sound effects according to screen image and rear two speakers mono sound effects went in and out of the picture/image:), sub was a bonus for Boom Boom!!!(passive or fancy powered at the time)Quote:

Gribley.... I hope when you bought the Denon amp, they gave you a deal on the best matching laser-disc player :) :thumbsup:

Rear speakers should be behind your sitting area period(or you are just bouncing the sound back to the front wall (or that nice door opening you have there as well:rolleyes:)remember not a theater room it is a rec room!!! you want to make that section of the basement your tv area :D), hens with your couch being against the wall, in- walls may work better, and volumes could be adjusted on distance....:)
Edit.... Am i blind or something?? where is the center channel speaker??
Just some suggestions Skiz....
PS.. Are you a real clean freak or something Skiz(avoided the word anal:whistling), but it does look really nice for a rec-room/family room
congrats again :D
