Audio Systems: home audio?, wall speakers, rear speakers


Question
Hello.. My name is aaron. I have purchased 4 in wall speakers. for surround sound.. i have the 2 rear mounted.. and unfortuantely im unable to mount the fronts on the same wall as the tv..anywhere.. My only option is one on each perpindualr side walls. I feel the mounting location is a good distance for them to be mounted.. my only concern is them not facing me.. And my rear speakers overwhelming them..Would i be better off on getting 2 boxed speakers to mount on bracket on the wall so i can angle them to my couch?? I would like to stick to the in wall speakers ..but i dont want to sacrifice too awfully much sound quality? Scale of 1-10..what should i do?  thanks ahead of time

Answer
Your room will play an important roll in whether or not you will find the perpindicular option, one that will work for you. You will always be better off with boxes since they can be tweaked to achieve better imaging. TV viewing of surround sound program is less critical then stereo imaging. Their are many variables that come into play from the time the engineer mixes the surround signal to when you listen to it in your living room. There are far fewer variables with true stereo.
