Hi to everyone, first time on the forum.

I am considering an HT system with M60's, VP150, EP350v3, and QS8's. I have an alcove in my wall that is 2'deep x 8' wide. I am planning to hang a 96"Diag fixed screen and have the M60's and VP150 underneath the screen. The main seating area will be directly in front of this 8' alcove +/- 30 degrees on each side, about 12' away from the front of the speakers

Can I put the M60's close to the side walls of the alcove and have the front of the M60's 2' from the rear wall. This would leave about 9" of space behind the M60's to the rear of the alcove. Worried about the space and bass.

Any thoughts or ideas. I can put the speakers outside the alcove on the main wall, but I am trying to hide them when not in use.
