    Yes! i purchased the black plastic ones from sonance. Supposedly they reduce sound spillover by up to 20 db. About $40/pair which wasnt horrible.

    So here is the final setup with the 340 SE center in place along with the 340 SEs on stands. I’m torn on whether to put the sub on the outside of the L&R speakers or on the inside as shown. The room is about 11 feet wide.

    Merry maid - nice set up.

    Have you tried both locations to see which sounds better (or measured with REW)?

    FWIW, I have my front subs (2xRythmik E15) inside the speakers, about 3' from either side wall. Sounds great to me although one day I may play around with some different locations like the front corners.

    Brandon, that setup looks spectacular! I have a suggestion for a music source to try for the Atmos implementation. Some time back I sent you some multi-channel SACDs. Try track 3 of the "My America" disc and see if the congas aren't playing around the top of your brain. All the best!

    Thanks! I plan to use REW and EQ the sub with my Behringer FBD when i have time Then I will try the two locations to determine what measures best

    Thank you. I will try this. I believe I had ripped al lof the SACD stuff way back when and I can stream it via Roon to my yamaha. I will give it a shot.

    Wali side clamp speaker mounts from Amazon. I had to saw off part of the arm to keep them closer to the side walls.
