A total of 6 subs? Yes, the main listening area will be roughly 15-20 feet back from the main wall. I have never owned a system with a subwoofer so that is new territory for me. I'm building this system primarily for movies but I do enjoy playing my records through the stereo as well and my child likes doing karaoke through the system as well. Although I'm a little less concerned with the sound quality when she's singing. I think I also forgot to mention 9' ceilings so quite a bit of cubic space.
