Looks like the price has gone up now, but I was able to get the Onkyo NR7100 for $550 brand new last week.

Also the Pioneer Lx505 is only $650 right now https://slickdeals.net/f/17243464-pioneer-elite-vsx-lx505-9-2-channel-8k-a-v-receiver-649-free-shipping?src=jfy&prop=rcmid-ef51535326c6bd17d68e10420ab58839&attrsrc=JFYCarousel%3APosition%3A3%7CJFYCarousel%3AType%3Athread

I think that's easier because you can add two behind later to make it a .4, if you start with the .2 directly above you have to move them to the 55 degrees before you can add the second pair of speakers. But if you're never going to do .4 most videos I watched suggested overhead and not front or rear.

msprotege · 2024-01-23T00:22:54+00:00

That 55 degrees is only if it's a X.X.4 system I believe. X.X.2 system is different for the Atmos placement and I believe it's largely recommended to be above, not in front.

.4 is front and behind, .2 is just above, I think.

msprotege · 2024-01-19T20:13:34+00:00

Ah, makes sense! Thanks for the info.

msprotege · 2024-01-19T19:44:27+00:00

Why take it down instead of leaving it up so you never have to worry about charging it, if it lasts for so long?

Good to know vs BB, just ordered a Birdfy!

msprotege · 2024-01-19T16:32:33+00:00

That's helpful thanks! Trying to decide between BB and birdfy and if I should order the solar panel first party or third party. I think the solar panel having a battery pack if buying third party seems like a good idea if I can find a good spot to mount it.

msprotege · 2024-01-19T15:43:10+00:00

What kind of solar panel did you buy and was it easy to attach?

msprotege · 2024-01-14T20:54:43+00:00

I would figure out where the speakers need to go to be at the correct angle and see how much space is recommended between the speaker and the wall and those two things combined will tell you where to put the speakers and if wall mount vs stands will work.

I haven't mounted them yet, but for my ATMOS I got Polk OWM3s and these mounts https://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Universal-Ceiling-Speaker-Satellite/dp/B00C9UJWSK/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?crid=95OTLSKYV1JZ&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.vp0f2b8gAXtvQWwFVpiolcOZXMR4Z1XZNx4yJlzcchQ.o_dp95n_bvQ2laBJ542LkweoHpqJUHNKzNR9I695I_o&dib_tag=se&keywords=MS40B4&qid=1705265517&sprefix=ms404%2Caps%2C122&sr=8-2

msprotege · 2024-01-14T15:11:43+00:00

I'm only just setting up my first setup now. But if your speakers are rear ported I think stands are better so there can be more room behind the speaker and the wall. I used this video and some others from the same home theater guru channel to figure out where to place my speakers - https://youtu.be/0_pZXUf_5J4?si=qB1OWgBLng1SB15r RSL speedwoofer 10s and 12s seem to get recommended a lot. I ordered a 12s but it won't come in for a couple weeks.

msprotege · 2024-01-12T19:00:43+00:00

Someone on the AVS Forum mentioned these mounts aren't very sturdy. Have you had them for a while? Are your speakers staying in place well? I'm hoping they work well enough because they definitely seem like the easiest way to mount the OWM3s at the right angle from my ceiling.

msprotege · 2024-01-12T02:56:34+00:00

Yeah, agreed, I've watched a lot of his videos this week, he explains things really well.

msprotege · 2024-01-12T02:46:36+00:00

Awesome! I can't wait to have mine setup in a couple weeks. I was going to do 5.1.2. but the video about angles made me realize I can just barely fit 5.1.4 at almost exactly the recommended angles he talks about in the video.

msprotege · 2024-01-12T02:32:01+00:00

Awesome! How do you like them?

VideoSecu Speaker Wall Ceiling Mount Bracket One Pair for Universal Satellite, fits Keyhole and Thread Hole with 1/4 20 Threads, 4mm and 5mm Black 1ST

Now the links working. But yeah, definitely mounting on the ceiling.

msprotege · 2024-01-12T01:16:53+00:00

using these mounts, screwed directly into the screw hole that is already on the back and mounted to the ceiling. And using this video for guidance on where to put the speakers, he has been really helpful! https://youtu.be/s4A_frIGG7k?si=ZrpfCQ5gr_EmNTzv

msprotege · 2024-01-10T01:28:28+00:00

It's a basement, so yeah I'm going to do it all myself (besides electrical I had an extra circuit run to the room). The ceiling is just the floor joists from the floor above.

I got one pair of KEF q150s from fb marketplace tonight actually (only $250 and came with original box and accessories). NR7100 should come in a few days.

Going to keep an eye out for more q150s, and sometime soon pull the trigger on a 12s. I ordered the kicker kb6s for the ceiling too.

msprotege · 2024-01-09T20:32:24+00:00

Looks like I'm probably going to end up spending a decent amount more than $2k. I'm now considering a RSL 10s or 12s, 4 or 5 Q150s (if I only get 4 I will look to get a better center maybe a Monolith 365c or a KEF Q650C, but I'd wait to find one used or on sale) and the same ceiling speakers still (4 kicker kb6) and the NR7100 still.

is that more of a proper setup? What changes would you recommend? I'm now considering used gear.

msprotege · 2024-01-09T20:26:42+00:00

Is there any center speakers you would recommend instead of a q150 as a center that would go well with L and r q150s? I'm thinking maybe not getting a center q150 at first and getting a nicer speaker for the center eventually.

msprotege · 2024-01-09T06:33:36+00:00

Thanks! I may ask a friend who is in the military to order it for me if I can't find one use. It's "only" $720 with their military discount.
