Hi All,
We're having a modest home theatre room in our new single story house (5.1m x 4m) and are planning to have pre-wiring done for a projector (10m Chord Company Active HDMI cable) and speakers, but I'm not sure whether to go for 5.1 or 7.1 due to the size of the room. Currently the plan is to have 8 inch in-ceiling speakers for 5.1 wired in and cabling run for a further 2 speakers (7.1) in case we wish to do this in the future (these would be fitted in the back wall). I'm just not sure if the room is big enough for 7.1 or whether we will use it in the future.
We are also have Cat 5 run through the house and wondered how many points to have in the Home Theatre and whether one should be run to the projector location in case we want to use home automation for this room in the future.
Any comments or suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
