Senior Audioholic. FirstReflection said: The surround speakers are supposed to be directly to either side of you (slightly behind you if they are monopole) and facing each other. They should also be 2-3 feet above your seated height, with at least a 2 foot gap from the tweeter to the ceiling.
How high should rear speakers be?
approximately six feet

Should speakers be angled?
