I’m moving to a new house and trying to figure out the best placement for my Era 300 speakers in the living room. I have an arc ultra, 2 era 300s, and a gen 4 sub. The TV will be mounted above the mantle and the sound bar would sit on that. The room will have couch and large rug. I’ve gone through the various placement options through other reddits/sonos community and it seems like the best choice was mount the 300s under the vents on the wall above the kitchen (behind that wall is the attic so there’s easy access). Then possibly inverting those 300s.
I realize that vaulted ceiling means you’re not going to get perfect theater quality and that’s okay. I just want the sound to make sense is at all possible and what I mean is that I don’t want a sound that’s supposed to be behind me to be heard from the ceiling. Any suggestions on the best placement is also welcomed.
***Note: I found out that there are speaker wires already ran behind plates that are ran to all 4 corners. You can’t really see them in the photos but they’re by the ceiling lights. The wires run into a closet where I’d imagine you would put an amp. I know very little about this side of speakers/sound/etc so any help is appreciated. These wires also run outside to the patio so I’d like everything to be on the Sonos ecosystem so it’s all connected but if there’s better options with another brand I’m not against It. I can’t find much info online about using both an arc and sub along with in ceiling speakers.
