I have a HT system consisting of Boston CR77 Left and Right, CR67 satellites and CRC7 center channel. I like how well matched it is, but as I'm finally doing a permanent install in a new living room, I'm curious about which option you think is preferable. There is some built in room correction with Audessey 2eq.
The CRC7 center speaker has a passive radiator, and includes a keyhole for flush mounting, but is also compatible with Boston's CRB bracket, which sets the speaker a couple inches off the wall and allows for angling. I'm trying to decide between 2 options:
Option A: Keyhole mount
+ less back wall interference
- not able to angle
Option B: CRB Bracket mount
+ able to angle 10° downwards toward viewing position
- further from wall= more back wall interference
