One of the few benefits of getting older is that your ears become the weakest link in the system. By now I can't hear well enough to justify spending a lot on speakers, etc. And fortunately our living room layout works perfectly with the TV at one end, together with the front speakers, and the rear speakers on the back wall where the seating is. We've only got small wall-mounted speakers (except for the woofer), but they work well enough for us (especially now we've replaced the carpet with a laminate floor, and got rid of the nasty ceiling treatment; it's amazing how much cleaner the room is, accousstically!).
