Scratch what I said above. Now that I've had coffee, I can see I didn't account for the radius of the driver and the speaker frame. That angle is more like 19 degrees. So the TV will interfere with the Early Reflections curve but only from 70 degrees up. I very much doubt you'll be able to hear the difference.

I broke one of my cardinal rules --> No STEM before coffee.
