Hi
I'm new to the forums, so sorry if I have posted in the wrong place.
I have an elderly neighbour and a young child. I'm finding that using my 5.1 surround sound system is becoming a problem. I don't want to upset my neighbour or wake up my daughter in the evening, so I'm thinking of setting up my 5.1 system for stereo only to avoid too many loud and boomy sounds.
Does anyone have any tips on how best to do this with the following kit I have?
-- Mirage AVS-200 surround sound speakers
-- Mirage AVS-100 centre speaker
-- Mirage FRX-S8 sub
-- Denon AVR 1610
Do I change the speaker settings in the Denon AVR by de-selecting some of the speakers and then run Audyessey?
Should I use the sub? I'm not sure my speakers can provide bass.
On a side note, my speakers are over 15 years old. When I bought them, the reviews were very good. How do they hold up to more recent speakers in this class? My friend has a Bowers and Wilkins A7 wireless speaker that sounds far better than my speakers. This has made me think about the quality of my speakers.
Thanks in advance.
