They should be on or very close the side walls, facing inward toward each other, and a little farther back(maybe 2')than the listening position.
Unlike the gaffe I made setting up the subwoofer, I did this right the 1st time around
Unfortunately, the lisening area is on the long side of the living room so the QS8s are sitting in the middle-right side of the room (meaning both speakers have at least 5 feet to the sidewalls). But I did make sure that they are sitting as close to the back wall as possible so they are 1'-2' behind me.
