When I had my 5.1s I found that wider room placement was much more rewarding than a narrow room placement. Set your listening position away from the back wall, but almost in an equilateral triangle with the 2 watt puppies. I found that 2-3 feet from the back wall made the puppies happiest, and about 5-6 feet from the side walls. Again, I feel the most important aspect is the triangle, you should be the same distence from each speaker as the speakers are away from you. I also prefered the speakers completely toed in, as in pointing directly at you, however this severely limits the sweet spot, but the imaging is downright scary. Have someone over while playing music, then have them sit in the sweet spot and watch thier face. It's like walking through a door into the performance. Hope that helps.
