Extra speakers in listening room


In a  dedicated listening room,  what is the proper way to handle extra speakers ?  Should one worry about two or three extra set of speakers? Should they be stored in the corners ? Behind the speakers ,or on far wall?  Do they have an affect on sound waves ? All extra speakers are ported cone speakers.The room is 13' x 14' x 8' . The  reference speakers do put out  extended base ( Usher 6371) .I am moving and loss my storage space.I do have  climate controlled storage space several miles away. Thanks for any  thoughts.

In addition to Alan’s comments you can also short the drivers.

Install a piece of conductive wire across the +/- terminals of the extra "passive" speakers.

Easy enough to listen to the before/after results of such, and if you hear a difference you can then consider using the extra speakers as bass/mid-bass traps.
