Nice! Congrats Grannyring!
I'd like to have your dilemma! I have M30.1s, so not quite the same thing, just the top 1/4 for half the price : ) Not sure my siting will translate to the big brothers, but I used the Cardas method to get in the ballpark and tweaked to taste from there. That worked well overall, so something to try maybe with the big 40.1s. You have a lot more room than I do. My 30.1s are in a 12x17 space.
I'll bet they'll work great nearfield. I sit about 8 feet away from my 30.1s and they are about 6.5 feet apart with some toe-in, about 15 degrees or so. They are really not that fussy and they aren't heavy, so it's easy to play around with different locations.
Let us know how you get on with them! I'm excited for you!
