Recently I got a pair of 1028be2's. My room is a cathedral ceiling with a Loft over the listening area. 9' ceiling, then open on both sides.
My speakers are setup in a modified triangle with 2'10" out from the rear wall. Sidewalks are 17' away. The room is wide but my seating position is 28" or so from a rear wall with openings to a dining room and hallway.
I haven't experimented a lot with distance behind the speakers yet. They're on long spikes and a few are getting loose from me trying to move them.
I'll have to call Focal about a repair. Never had that issue with my B&Ws, but these sound so, so much better!!
