Front speaker placement, trying wider placement.

Trying a wider stance for front speakers where they are placed twice as wide vs distance from chair to center speaker. Read somewhere this is better.
To me this seems to enlarge dispersion.   I like idea of nestling fronts into corners.  Speakers are in a 16 x 14 room where fronts are along wider wall.  
Speakers are b&w diamonds and have no trouble filling room.  Seems very good thus far.
