Hi team,
I’ve ordered a pair of ERA300s to use as surrounds with my Arc and sub. I was planning of mounting them at regular listening height on the wall behind my couch. Then I read that they can also be placed nearer the ceiling upside down and I can easily mount them there too.
So I have a choice. Which is the best position to mount them or doesn’t it matter.
cheers, Dave
To be honest I don’t think them mounted up high would sound very good. Sure the Atmos would be coming right down at you, but then the rear and side channels would be bouncing around at ceiling height, too.
Yeah that makes sense. I think I’ll be sticking with the regular head height position. Any other views?

But wouldn’t the rear and side channels be adjusted by the Trueplay?
Trueplay could detect orientation and swap left and right for the side channels, but the height channels are intended to be reflected, not direct.
Sonos provides instructions for mounting the E3 upside down and within 2’ of the ceiling
If it was me I’d wall mount at the same 38 inch height of the stands Sonos sells
