New member Username: JonandabbyPost Number: 1 Registered: May-05 | I have a very odd shaped room, and want to put in surround sound. Here are the limitations of the room: 1) I cannot put the speakers behind me (sofa against wall); 2) I cannot put the speakers on the side walls (one side is a window, the other is a passthrough to a kitchen. I really need something that can be mounted on the back wall, and then adjusted to point sideways. I had been considering the Bose AM 15 or 10 systems. But I don't much care for Bose. Are there any other quality systems with really small speakers that can be adjusted to fit the shape of my room like Bose's? I don't want to spend silly money, but anything under $1000 before installation would be something I'd consider. The priorities are small and adjustable (and good), not cheap. PS I have an Onkyo TX-SR601. |

Anything is possible with a little creativity. https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/home-theater/135527.jpg Dont let something as simple as a window or doorway hold you back. |

I'd suggest doing some legwork(the fun part) and checking local HiFi shops to see the many alternatives. Im not a big fan of bose either, and wouldnt recommend the model I have unless they're used as back speakers. |
