12' behind the listner.
I think this is the part that's really going to make a difference.
Even though I've never had a room with splayed walls, I've had such a
sloping ceiling in a room when I lived in Germany and the sound was
VERY good. while the ceiling was probably not the only reason, I think
that it had a lot to do with it. Mine was more radical than that,
because the part behind the speakers was only about 5 feet while the
part behind the listener was about 8 1/2 feet.
Congrats on being able to do your side walls the way you want them. I
think that many audio fans envy you being able to do that.
