Ajax, the Golden Ratio is meant as a starting point for those who have no idea where/how to setup their speakers. You could for instance divide all those values by 2 to decrease the distances.
Generally the concept is to try and setup a triangle with as perfect dimensions as possible. If you could see my own basement setup, it does not come anywhere near the Golden Ratio numbers.
Hmm, let me post that image so you can see.
Note how my front speakers and my couch are only 8 feet apart while the speakers themselves barely sit 6 feet apart with about 1 foot clearance from the back wall and varying distances from the side walls.
