I'm going to have the same issue with mine after I mount the W22's in the wall. There will be about anywhere from 1.5 to 2.5 feet difference above my ears, depending on where I'm seated. With the W100, it is about 2 to 3 feet below my ears.

Not a perfect situation, but I can live with it. I think that the MCACC EQ adjustments in the Pioneer will help make up for the difference.
