They are about 6ft to the sides.


What do you mean here? Your side speaker are six feet away from the seats?

Great to hear this configuration works well.

Of course, the original poster isn't asking or talking about 9.1, so this is all kind of moot.

In any case, I have my surround speakers slightly ahead of the listening position. I would be happier with it if I had rear surrounds, but it does the job pretty well.

Yea but ... but I thought getting off topic was a prerequisite for posting or replying on the Axiom forums?

Could I be wrong after after all of these post??

Oh, of course it is. Just pointing that out in case people were getting confused.

Somebody said "two sides". I was trying to clarify.

Anybody do any special Holiday baking?

I never mentioned 9.1, I mentioned having 2 sets of side surrounds for 2 rows...it actually is very applicable to this thread...

He meant (judging from his first post) 2 total side surround speakers, not 2 pairs of side surround speakers.

Yes the room is 15ft wide, so the surrounds are close to the walls. So each side surround is about 5-6 ft from the seats. If you had them right up next to your seats that would not give you the best results.
