    I ended up going back and flipped the ECHOS to face up-and-over the beams because they were creating a hollow sound pointing inside the beam 😄

    I'm looking at building a home audio system throughout my home, and started building out a home theatre system using 2 Echo Studios and an Echo Sub. The sound quality is amazing. Unfortunately, I'm stuck in my apartment for a few months, so I can't let them sing yet :) I also have some of the full sized Echo hubs to place in various rooms throughout the house as well. I'm excited to get it all up and running!

    The location of the speakers impedes the sound. They should be in a direct line of sight of your seated position and at ear level if possible. Otherwise, you are compromising the sound quality.

    You know I did something similar in my kitchen above the cabinets where there is open space with the the small Echo Dot gen4 not wall mounted just sitting on its own for now. The sound is excellent having it high and in the location. I have the echo 3 on the kitchen counter. The whole kitchen is now full of very good sounding music. Good video.

    Hello Marv, welcome to the channel. In order to achieve the similar results, you'll need to download this app for your ipCameras: i.p.Cam Viewer Full (I have a video on this app: kzread.info/dash/bejne/f4l7p9iYdcbFk7g.html) , then load them into the app. ....then goto alexa ROUTINES and create an routine like this: ALEXA> CUSTOM> "Open I.P. Cam Viewer Full App" THIS will trigger your fire TV or Alexa Show to open your app with the cameras displayed! I really should make a video on this SOON! Thank you for your interest! -Todd

    I would suggest ditching the 4th gen echo's for 2 studios for the atmos sound. when its working 2 studios + a sub is an awesome HT setup. Issues I am having is right and left channel sync drops often and have to rebuild the setup in the app to fix, another issue is if you are using a firetv recast over the same wifi as your theater setup it will drop the home theater setup while watching recorded programs

After I do this the studio connects to an Amazon wifi. When this happens I can't adjust bass, treble, or mid range. I've spoken with 8 different associates and been offered a new device. I connected my other studio in the same fashion and was faced with the same problem. Does anyone have any advice?
