How far do you sit from your speakers

As always, Elizabeth, you made me laugh! "I am the "W"! And, a great detailed description. Any pictures of the room?

The angles seem narrow with 100" to the speakers and 59" between the speakers. Is that characteristic of the 3.6? Is 42" closer than average from the back wall? I am asking because I am curious about getting into Maggies and this seems different than the typical box speaker.

FWIW I just finished reading Jim Smith's "Get Better Sound" and he recommends a slightly elongated triangle where the distance between the speakers (measured tweet to tweet) is 83% of the distance from your ear to either tweeter. Of course there are many variables here (speaker type, irregular shaped rooms, ETC) but I have found over the years that my setup typically fell pretty close to this arrangement without knowing about Jim's ratio. Based on my experience and what I've recently read, if your "traffic pattern" allows I would suggest you use all that length to move the speakers well out into the room and then sit closer to them and see what happens. This would also ameliorate the problem of having the entertainment center between the speakers.

My room is narrow, just around eleven feet wide, and 30 or so deep. The stuff is in the window end and that is where it CAN go. It is out of the way, and still good. I pretty much live for music, but still want some space. My 'wall' of Lps is in the bedroom because in the main room it just uses up too much space.
My place is not perfect, but I do with it what I can. No pics.
Yeah, I like dipolar speakers. My first 'big' speakers were Infinity RSIIa with dipolar EMIMs/EMITs Then other 'box' speakers, and finally back to Magnepans. i think the Maggies are keepers.

Speakers are 8' to my toes, 9' to my ears. I wished I could sit further away but the room is the limiting factor.

My speakers are 6.5 ft from tweeter to tweeter. My ears are 8 ft from tweeters. This has worked well for me and I'm not sure I'd move the listening seat back even if the room allowed. When my system was in the living room I found myself moving in closer for critical listening.
