where would these speakers best be placed. Front or back of room

Just my preference but, if I just have two I like them front, about ear level and 4 or 5 feet apart. This better simulates the sound you would get from most situations. If you have 4, I would put 2 front and 2 rear. My system is really old so it doesn't support the 5.1 etc., just an A or B or A+B. Hope this helps. I guess the bottom line comes down to what sounds good to you.

The room where I have my speakers is rectangular. The speakers are placed on top of bookshelves are about 5' high and are at either end of the rectangular points. The sound produced is amazing. You can always try them in different spots to find what suits you best. They are incredibly powerful. Hope this helps.

In the front result might be better, if you want rears I would go for some surround ones , I have that configuration for a 5.1 and works really good

I use them as part of a 7.1 system as rear surrounds. it depends on what you are trying to accomplish. If these would be the only speakers then front of the room

I use them as part of a 2.1 system paired with a Klipsch SW350, an Audioengine N22 amplifier, an Audioengine D1 DAC, and a cheap RadioShack equalizer. They sound absolutely amazing as the main speakers for the system.

I think they are meant to be front speakers. That is where I have them in a fairly small room and they are excellent.Todd

there isn't any place to mount them unless you put a bracket on the back but if they are against the wall the port will be blocked best suggestion would be to make a shelf for them with an inch or two open behind them. these are awesome sounding speakers by the way.

I have two lamp end tables that the surround sound speakers sit on currently which are located nicely in my living room space wise. I am using my entertainment center as a staging are for the front speakers. Overall, great sound from this system.

AK, I don't quite get your question, but here is my take. I purchased these speakers about a year ago, and have no complains about its performance. To me they are very efficient for the use I give them. Whether its music or movies, they rock and they are not that small. They can be used as front or rear in a surround set up. When it comes to speakers, there is such a wide variety, that you really have to do your homework and based on all the info that you gather, then make a decision. I do not regret getting these. They add to my decor and they sound great. Good luck.

You could purchase a matching tower to your left and right front channel speakersI have not noticed a tinny sound. But my room is smaller and I do not crank the volumeYou could also try a Polk or Klipsh(disclosure theypurchased Jamo and now mfg. that brand and line)Those would be at the lower range of cost between 2 and 3 hundredI still think matching is you best option

Bear, These do not send sound straight at you so they normally would not be the best choice as your front speakers.Eric C

Go into sound setting it will have an option for front only or all speakers

Just select a stereo amp for them as you would for any 50W 4 ohm speaker but; you're going to have to make sure they are fastened to the frames in the seats to transmit the most vibration to the occupant. I think putting them in the back would be best if you've room. Be really happening with one in the bottom as well. That way it would be impossible to realize where the vibration emanates from. Crazy out-of-the-box idea man. The kind I like the best!

I hooked this up for a friend who had a display table for his flat screen. So the left and right laid on the table, and the center was placed right in front. Then for the rear, we bought two simple stands and ran the wires up the center pole of the stands. Keep in mind, use Velcro on the base of the rear speakers and the stands, in case someone "bumps" into them. If you are wall mounting, then this is the site for the speaker mounts....http://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Deluxe-Speaker-Brackets-Ceilings/dp/B001QNBUA4/ref=pd_bxgy_e_text_y

these are designed for front and back channels. Would sound better if you had a center speaker. these make good surround sound speakers

I would recommend you mount them on the wall rather than using stands. They are fairly light and easy to hang and sound great on the wall behind your listening area as they radiate sound in all directions. I'm very happy with mine.

Where are the speakers located on this TV? I need them in the front, it will be mounted in an enclosure. Thanks.

Your rear speakers don't necessarily have to match your fronts, so with that theory in mind, these should serve you well. As long as your center matches your front left and right, you're good.

Ultimately they should be mounted slightly behind the listening position At ear level (for a 5.2 system) which would require speaker stands.However if for some reason this is not practical I would suggest using the side wall

These speakers are not designed to be used as front speakers; you could look instead at the JBL ES30BK 3-Way, 6" Bookshelf Speakers... (pair for $200.00)

I used them as rear only I'm sure you could use them as front but normaly you want the front speakers facing you. With that being said I'm sure they would work ok
