Hi guys, just moved house this weekend and am trying to figure out how best to set up my home cinema equipment. The new lounge is a decent shape, but my main problem is the position of the couch and the fact that it either blocks the door to the deck, or my front right floor standing speaker :) I have included a diagram of the lounge below for reference.The couch is basically where it has to stay as it is too big to have in the middle of the room (we tried). I have it pulled away from the north wall as much as possible so that one can still access the deck, but it still means my nice big JBL floor stander is pumping straight into the leather side of it... Basically, the only way I can keep my floor standers with the current config is to have them tight up against the AV cabinet which looks silly and is not good acoustically either.I have some Wharfedale diamond bookshelf speakers on stands I use as satellite speakers which I could put in the front (or similar raised small-footprint speakers) but they are crap for music and I'd need to get some satellites too.I also don't know where to put my sub... :)I am looking for suggestions on the following:1) suggest a lounge re-arrangement that will work (note TV is wall mounted (came with the place) so has to stay where is. (Blue & red shapes can be moved)2) Suggest a work-around so I can keep using my big floor standers. Is it really the end of the world if one is mostly obscured by the side of a couch?3) Suggest a decent sounding new system I can use instead (fronts would have to be raised at least 2 feet on stands of some kind). Don't have a heck of a lot of budget at the mo...Cheers in advance!
