Conclusion
- Ceiling mount: Best for maximum coverage and performance, but requires more installation effort.
- Low wall mount: Easier to install, but offers less coverage and may encounter obstructions.
Choose the configuration based on your room size, layout and installation option. Ceiling mount is recommended.
