When this customer called us, he had a problem. His townhome neighbor could hear his two front left and right speakers through the wall, because they were in-wall speakers. I needed to get them speakers that were not in-wall or wall-mounted, and the wife wanted nothing to do with floor standing speakers. So, we went with these Paradigm speakers that use brackets to attach the three speakers directly to the TV, avoiding the need for floor standing or in-wall speakers. This made the wife very happy, it gave them even better sound than they had before, and even looked pretty good attached to the TV. There is a left, center, and right channel, attached directly to the TV. We also upgraded the AV receiver, and installed an easy to use remote control to control the system with.
-mantle mount allows the TV to be watched from a lower height and easily put back above the fireplace when not in use
-new AV receiver allows for eARC with audio being fed from the TV back to the receiver through the HDMI cable eliminating the need for a separate audio wire
-new remote allows for easy control
-cleaned up and organized AV cabinet makes everything much easier to service
