Hi All,

Just found this forum and got a lot of helpful information to set up my home system! My current set up is Pioneer VSX-92TXH, a pair of Monitor Audio Silver RS8 floor speakers and a MartinLogan Dynamo S/W connecting to the Samsung Series 650 52" LCD TV.

I have not have the time to get everything dialed in yet, but that is the fun part to do in the next few weekends, if the wife allows.

I am curious if anyone has a similar set up or have suggestions on what I can do to make it sounds better than OOTB, which is pretty much what I have at this time.

Thanks!

For setup, this is the best place to start: http://www.hometheatershack.com/foru...ter-101-a.html

My advice that I give to everyone:

Follow proper speaker positioning (fronts at ear level, center tilted towards ears, rear 2-3 feet above, fronts 22-30 degrees off center, rears 90-110 degrees off center)

Use the 1/3 or 1/5 rule, your speakers and your **** should be at 1/3, 1/5, 2/5 etc the room length, not 1/2 or 1/4.

$40 RS Sound Level Meter and Room EQ Wizard software make subwoofer positioning a breeze.

When you have the money, treat your room!
