Well if you do that, then the first row will have pretty much crap side surrounds because they will be too far back (6 feet back from the front row doesn't sound to appealing).
Dolby Digital states that the surrounds can be placed up to 20 degrees in front or behind the listener...which I am trying to stay inside of.
Utilizing the QS8s, you can get good, ambient sound. The second row will most likely not even know that the surrounds are in front of them (if what I hear about the QS8s are true).
It basically comes down to what row I will be sitting in most (which will be the front row). Ideally 2 sets of side surrounds would be best, but my little 14x16 room most def. does not need 2 sets of side QS8s!!! Perhaps when I get in a 25 x 16 room, I will get 2 sets of QS8s for my 2 rows, but not until then...
I will probably experiment with the placement and see what exactly sounds the best.
