I was laying out and cutting holes for my 4 Atmos in ceiling speakers yesterday. I laid out all four. When I got to the last one, I realized an A/C duct was in the way. I decided to move it to the left 10" and cut the hole. This affected the symmetry, so as I moved to each of the other holes, I moved them 10" as well, so everything stayed symmetrical around the center. This morning, I went to install the speakers, and as I was looking at the holes, one just didn't look right. Sure enough, I somehow screwed up and didn't move one of the holes 10". The ceiling is painted flat black, and speakers are painted flat black as well, so they are not really noticeable. I have already installed Dynamat boxes, which are glued to the sheet rock. So I have two options.
1. Leave it as is and compensate for it in the receiver setup.
2. Cut the box free from the sheetrock. Cut a new holes. Slide the box over and install it in the right position. Hire a contractor to come in, patch the hole, texture the area, and repaint the ceiling.
If I leave it, is one Atmos speaker being 10" closer going to be noticeable audibly? Option 2 is expensive and time-consuming, but I'm also worried is it going to just grind on me everything I look at it and realized my mistake.
