Where to place my two channel in new room?

Hi guys, putting up a new building for some toys & added a little live in area its not perfect for two channel set up but will make due. Here is a drawing of the area its long and kind of narrow. I would like to know for the electrician & would be possible to put up a wall but sure would like not to. The system is Focal Maestros & Rel six pack 812S so should be able to pressure the room well. Here is a drawing of the room, master bed is on one end with full wall and door then the hole thing is open to the kitchen. Thank you Matt

Normally you go with the speaker facing into the long part of the room then toe it in 

go to the Cardas cable website , they show you how to set up your room .

Length wide with your seating wherever the Bass nulls in your room sound best. I have a 30 x16 , I have a similar situation ,my ceilings are only 8 ft high.

Typically one will create an equilateral triangle of 6 - 8’ away from the back wall. So I would start three feet from the short back wall and in 3.5’ from side walls. This should work great as a starting point. Not having a wall behind the listeners position is great, no problem with reflections behind. Some side wall treatments may be required. Sounds like a good space. Do not position equipment between the speakers (only amp). You want direct lines behind the amp and off to the side for your components.
