I also sit 11 feet from screen.

I calculate my ideal speaker width (22 degrees to 30 degrees) to be 8.88 feet to 12.70 feet.

Interesting, the M60's that just came today have instructions that state "seperate left and right speakers by roughly half the listening distance."

So in our case, axiom's saying seperate speakers by 5.5 feet. Interestingly, that's only 14 degrees...

weird - this is not supposed to be a speaker manufacturer preference, it's based on the well established standards that recording engineers use when they mix our music and movies

So I don't understand why Axiom's published info would be so different that the 22-30 degree standard.
