Billy, welcome. If your term "couch end" implies that the couch is almost right up against the back wall, although 20 feet of depth are available, then placing QSs on the back wall and widely separated(at least 15 feet)almost to the side walls should be very effective. This would be little different from a side wall placement near the back wall. I'll add that you should raise the QSs to give at least 2" of room from the shelf on the bottom, and that the fronts shouldn't be at all recessed into the shelf area.
In your size room the M60s would be fine, although you also have enough room for M80s if that fits your budget. Sitting that far back, the front speakers should be separated on the order of 15 feet.
