From the beginning of time, coming up with an ideal listening position and speaker/tv positioning was challenging. I don't have ascends yet, but my TV is catty-cornered and so are my current speakers. I always wondered if this would cause for strange staging or another listening issues? I considered moving the TV over the fireplace mantel so my speakers can be backed up to flat walls instead of a corner. I'm not sure if that is better, perhaps adding new issues of heat or neck issues from the viewing angle. Any suggestions? See attached for mock diagram of the existing space.
