How far away from your speakers are you?


I thought it would be interesting to know how people position their speakers... do you have the freedom to put them where you want or do practicalities dictate?.. How far away are they from the listening position?.. How big's the room and how far away are they from boundary walls? My main speakers (Seas A26) are 1' from back wall, 3' from sides in a 14' by 20' room and my listening position is  about 16' from the speakers. Just wondering how much floor space we're willing to give up to get the optimum placement.

I don’t sit down to listen to music because I feel couch potatoes take more ambulance rides then anybody in the long run I place my speakers high enough to have the correct sonic level of the speakers
My speakers have horns and drivers in them to find the correct location I close my eyes listen carefully and position my body slowly where I am hearing the most out of the music Then I take a soundbath
That is my way of doing it and I know there’s many different ways to achieve this
Everyone  has their own idea
Whatever works for you after sifting through all of this is probably best for you Thank you for reading my posts and considering a new way
It's a good question, but it begs for another question.
Do you have near, mid or farfield speakers?
How large is your room.
I have nearfield speakers in a small room.
(Barfoot sound MM27)
What annoys me inspite of room tuning (acoustic material) is that i still would like to move my rear wall 2 meters further.
A close position would be a benefit talking side reflexions (floor, roof and side walls).
You want direct sound and not reflextions.
Anyway, this is all a can of worms....
Focal aria 936’s:   room: 19x42    2 10” diy subs. Set just high enough to add support without obvious bass boost/boom
speakers are 5’ from curtained front wall 7’ 7” apart and 9’ 5” from listening pos.
Which leaves just over 5’ from side walls.   Very slight toe inImaging is outstanding. With maybe just a touch too little center fill. 
Toe in more?  936’s by most recc’s  do best firing straight forward, but I’m not finding that in my room.   Time to play a bit with position but I’ll have to mark current carefully. Hate to loose what I’ve got and not get it back. 
Fronts about ten feet

rears on walls 6’ either direction

back channels on ceiling 8’ high, 8’ apart
My Listening room is: 22’(L) X 12’(W) X 8’(H). My Tannoy SGM-15’s are 7’ apart, 7’ from front wall, 9’ from seating, and 14’ from the rear wall. A pair of Rel S-812 are just inside L & R Speakers. The Tannoy's are on 18" stands and fire directly to my ears when I am seated in my "sweet spot" The sound stage is good and most noticeable in between speakers.
