Hi - I'm excited to be replacing my 10 Minimus 7 surrounds with 10 HTM-200 SEs. The M7s were an experiment but they just don't put out enough. The HTM-200 looks to be the perfect replacement for our room.

You can see by the picture how I have the M7s oriented: All but the rears are horizontal to the listening area on the sofa. The rears are angled both ways. My theory was to point them all directly at the listening area.

My default is to install the HTMs the same, but figured I'd ask the forum for thoughts or suggestions on orientation.

Thanks much!

PS - am also excited to be trying out Ascend products for the first time!
