Since it's a combined 2 channel HT system, I have a couch with reclining ends. I sit on the right so, since I'm not in the center, I have toed the speakers a little extra to make my spot as close as possible to be the "sweet spot". The right speaker is almost right in front of me. It's not optimal, but it works fairly well. I could probably do a little better, if the room was a little deeper. I am definitely comfortable when listening.
