Thanks for helping with the "2x4" Q. I have an office on the other side of the wall that I am considering installing. Will Sound transfer in badly?

I'd install some type of insulation.....because you will hear noise on these. Not terrible at all, though.

I tried to hook to 300W x 2 speakers, and It worked well to me. I didn't turn volume all the way up just 1/4 max. because my room just 10ft X 10ft

I have these wall mounted in a 5x5 walk in closet converted to a digital studio. If they are correctly positioned at the (sweet spot) listener, I see no point in bouncing them.

Hi Chad. Yes. I'd put them on opposing walls and on as many surfaces as I can. The idea behind this foam isn't sound attenuation its sound treatment. You want to reduce or eliminate as much sound wave bounce or natural echo as you can. I hope that was helpful. Good luck on your build.

speakers should be attached to a AV receiver not to each other......so I would first look into getting a AV receiver.

Not that bad. Definitely not someone on other side of wall, but someone a few feet away in the same room will hear sound.

one will work just fine. I have read that it is better to use 2x2 as the op system can spread the work which could increase thruput, but the effect in reality is probably negligible, either way is fine.

Sorry, I have no idea about that. I have struggled with the sound for almost 3 months. It has been bad. I just found 1 more parameter that I did not know existed and would not think it matter very much. It is the "installation Type" Wall mount or base? It was set on wall and changing it to base made significant difference in the audio.

No, my audio contractor just marked the area where the speaker wire needed to come out of the wall and the drywall installers were careful of that location. So no, i can't see a situation where you would really need it.

Transmitting the video signal to another level isn't really any different from going from one room to another... The critical factor is the vertical distance and the number of walls it must pass through. If the location of the receiving set is close to being underneath and the signal must just pass thru the floor, you should be fine. But a floor and several walls will likely degrade the signal a bit. Moving the antenna on the receiving unit or just moving it slightly can make a big difference. The distance claimed in the GE description is for a clear signal, no way will you get that with walls etc. but 50 feet and a wall or two is most likely going to be OK. Also, be aware that TV's, monitors, phones etc can block/disrupt as well. Good Luck

sorry I can't help you. I had mine professionally installed with in wall surround system.

I have not found that to be an issue, because my units are in a closet, turned video library. However, I can see your point and agree it could be an issue if placed in a traffic/walking area; but, without the enlarged base, the unit would be unstable and prove useless.

I haven't tried it but I would think it would cause enough lag to be noticeable. There is a clear delay between sound if we have the TV on in two rooms and don't mute one of them - it is not much but enough to echo. I would think the image is as delayed so it could cause noticeable lag on a video game. Perhaps someone who has tried it can confirm if it is an issue. From experience, the less walls or other obstacles in the way of the receiver/transmitter, probably the less lag you would encounter. My transmitter is in an equipment cabinet and the receiver is a couple of walls away from that.

I have speakers attached for full room sound... I remember the speakers worked well - this is a small room 10X13 should be fine... I would check it out now... but I'm traveling.

Shirley, I've looked along the sides and don't find any ports for sound to escape. The speakers are forward-facing. Incidentally, mine supports the weight of my 46" Panasonic plasma without complaint.

Thanks for the reply. Ill try that. Just to pass some info along, my friend told me the best way to hook up the audio is through an optical cable. Ive never used one. There is a port on my PS3 as well as my surrond sound. He said this cable was the best way to get the highest quality out of your surround sound. Kind of like comparing SD to HD. My optima will be coming in tomorrow, I cant wait. Kinda like christmas for me haha. Thanks for the advice on the ceiling mount. I was gonna buy the 20$ one but after your comment I went for the Atdec TH-WH-PJ-FM Telehook Universal Projector Flush Mountit was 54$ but had some good reviews. Cant wait till tomorrow....calling into work sick! Thanks for the reply. Ill try that. Just to pass some info along, my friend told me the best way to hook up the audio is through an optical cable.
