Yeah, about 9 feet away at most in the large room. *IF* I later go with using M3 for home theater it would actually be in a slightly smaller room -- 20x15 (notice I gave a wrong dimension at first). Again with the speakers on the long wall.

Still wonder if my Definitive Pro Cinema 60 group is worth replacing with a bookshelf-based HT Axiom setup ... or any of the other brands ...
