I moved my couch out a couple of feet from the rear wall and it sounded better. I've moved my couch to several different positions, and it always sounds the same. You're supposed to sit on the couch when you make the comparisons.

Roger, agree that with the couch right up against the wall, back surrounds in a 7.1 setup wouldn't have operating room. The best result would be with the side surrounds as far back as possible.

Brian, you don't understand; for Mark's benefit you should describe the sound of your couch in its previous position and its improved sound now.

Thanks for the input guys. Moving the couch is not an option due to the limited placement of the side surrounds.
