8 feet is too far front.
If you liked the envelopment and presentation at 14w and 17mlp, stick with that.
Mine are 8" from the ceiling and 10 deg in front and they sound great.
12-13 feet MLP might be too close for the 14w. Try it. I bet you'll find the M100s get in the way of themselves and create an acoustic shadow at the left and right extremes of the soundstage.

Looks like I’ll move MLP back to 17 and try the surrounds at 7” spacing. That’ll put them at roughly 5-10 degrees forward.

The wonderful thing about the 7" spacing is that you won't have the woofer or the tweeter interfering acoustically with the top mid-woofer.

QS10s shipped fast. Should have them tomorrow or Monday. I made a little offset on the joists that'll allow me to use the ceiling mounts and keep the top mid away from the ceiling. This offset will also give me a lot more mounting options and I can still get the speakers very close to the wall. I will still try them in the other location flush on the wall to see what sounds better. Too bad tax season is going to keep me from really having a lot of time to experiment.

Reblux, I will be sure to take progress pics and even some as I am tinkering with no walls and let you guys know how the different set ups sound. I'm hoping I can squeeze a weekend or two off during tax season to frame up the foundation walls so we can start running wires and putting insulation in place.
Looks like it's going to be Monday on the 10s. They are still showing they are in Memphis. I'm looking forward to having surround sound again and just hearing how much better these will sound vs my dad's old qs8 v2s.
