Re: Something has to give -- speaker or display height?



Assuming you're referring to the center channel speaker, I'd defer to screen placement at or slightly above eye level (I think the standard is it should be centered at no more than 15 degrees above eye level). The speaker can be angled towards the seating area and you'll be fine; once you get engrossed in the program you won't even noticed that it's not ear level. IMO the "tweeters at ear level" thing refers more to the L/R for music listening.

Regards,
Wayne
