Hi there,

I'm looking for a tradesman who can help me install a home theater system. Didn't buy it from Malaysia hence I doubt those Home Theater resellers are going to do it for me.

Anyone knows of any installer please let me know.

Thanks

Hi there,

I would just like to enquire a little about best sound quality positioning of a home theater system. I have bought a Bose System Home Theater System and would like to try to install it myself. I would just like to ask you guys about some acoustic qualities of a basic installation setup.

Perhaps a little background. The space comprises of a length between the back wall and front wall of about 13 feet. This is a living room hence, the 2 sides are not specifically covered. I plan to install the speakers on these front and back walls. The sofa will be placed 10 feet from the front and the sitting position around 2 feet from the ground.

My plan is to install 2 side speakers and the centre speakers on the front wall flanking a 65 inch TV. How far and how high should these front speakers be (if taking the centre point of the TV as reference)? For the height, should it be the height of the person seated or can I place it on the TV console which is approximately 30cm off the ground?

As for the back speakers, they will be approximately 3 feet from the sofa. I would like to mount it on the wall at around 10 ft height. Will this be optimal or would it be better if it was at the same height as the front speakers.

Should I also mount the centre speakers or should I just leave it on the console which is 30cm off ground?

Any advise is appreciated.

Thanks

Hi guys,

Many thanks for the guidance. I think I roughly know what to do already and will try it out. After hacking and installing that is. Again much appreciated on the technical assistance.

A side question..... I also have an old Pioneer amplifier which is part of a Pioneer home theater. The speakers are fine but the amp is not working. I think something fused or maybe the capacitor burned. I stay ard PJ area and am finding it hard to locate a shop that helps repair. Mostly will say pls throw and buy new ones. However, I tot it will be a waste if it was just a fuse that burned.

Could any one point out a HIFI repair shop that I can visit?

Again, many thanks!
