The left rear that was blocked by the duct is already moved. The left front Atmos speaker is the one that I forgot to move. Sent from my SM-F936U1 using Tapatalk

Ended up getting a different product at Hobby Lobby. Product is called "Tacky". Pretty much seemed the same as the putty used for hanging posters etc. Seems to work pretty well. Gave it some test bumps and the speakers and stand moved as one unit. Sent from my SM-F936U1 using Tapatalk

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...

Ordered new Arendal speakers. The center channel is on back order, but I received the rest. Arendal speakers are 4ohm. My old center is 8 ohm. Any risk to my amp or receiver running them mismatched until the new center comes in? Sent from my SM-F936U1 using Tapatalk

Can't find the Blu-Tack locally. Is it similar to this mounting putty? It says this is repositionable. My wife had some of the clear museum gel for securing glass/crystal, but it wasn't very stiff and the speakers moved as it slowly squished flat over an hour or so. Sent from my SM-F936U1 using...

Just bought a seven speaker Arendal 1723S with some VTI speaker stands. The stands just have a plain top plate. The plate is smaller than the speaker. Even just the slightest bumb causes the speaker to shift or spin. Any recommendations on attaching the speaker to the stand? Double sided tape...

I believe the website said they came with both. I'm on carpet, so I need the spikes. Sent from my SM-F936U1 using Tapatalk

I ended up going with the VTI stands. Wife liked the DF model the best. Sent from my SM-F936U1 using Tapatalk

Monolith and Sanus don't have a center that is short enough. VTI does though. That is a promising option.

I just placed an order for 7 Arendal 1723S speakers to replace my aging speakers. The mains are towers, but I will need stands for the center and the 4 bookshelf speakers. The tweeter height on the mains is 29" Ear height is 33" to 40" depending if you are sitting upright or reclining. If I...

That is the review that got me interested. Really want to see numbers on the off axis performance of the center to make sure it isn't as bad as a typical sideways MTM. I have a shallow and wide couch setup. Sent from my SM-F936U1 using Tapatalk

Very interested in these speakers. Hopefully a full review is coming.

The surrounds from Arendal are more of a hybrid. They have a front facing tweeter and 8" driver. They also have two 4" drivers in a dipole arrangement crossed at 200 Hz. The more I have been reading up on monopole vs dipole in an Atmos setup I'm kind of confused on what benefit this hybrid...

So would you just do option one and hang the bookshelfs just like they are? The back wall speakers are about 2 feet behind the listening area.

I'm confused. I thought dipoles are supposed to be wall mounted. The Arendal 1723 surrounds come with wall brackets for mounting on the wall.

I'm redoing my dedicated theater room. As with many rooms, it does have its challenges. I currently have a traditional MT style bookshelf speaker suspended from the ceiling. https://photos.app.goo.gl/KArLWFzGXuzJ8b7z5 Problem is only one speaker can be wall mounted in the correct location...

I looked at Rythmoc, but they are sold out till June! Playing with REW, I think I need a sub in the front left and back right corners. Front left corner is tight for space. I think if I go with the TV18 it will push the left front speaker too far to the right and put it partially in front of my...

Are dual TV1512's worth the extra $1k over the VTF-15H? Room is 22x18x9 (3500 ft^3) and is sealed. 100% movies and TV. Considered Rythmik, but they are out of stock of most subs until June. SVS just didn't seem to have the value compared to the the others. Between the larger size/weight and...

My old sub died so I'm looking to upgrade to dual subs. I bought the recommended UMIK microphone, downloaded the calibration file, and set it up in REW. I swiped my HSU VTF2-MK5 from the bedroom for the testing. The room is 22'x18'x9' sealed. I tried four different positions for the sub...

I decided to support local and bought a D-Sonic M3A-1200-3. Met Dennis on Saturday and pick it up. Installed it into the rack on Sunday, but have to wait until the Monoprice XLR cables come in to hook it up. Can't wait to try it out. Thanks for all the advice.
