Thanks for all response. While some have suggested I place the speakers along the short wall, the way I have things set up, I can only place the speakers along the long wall (18ft long) otherwise I would have blocked either the entrance to the bedroom or the main entrance to the living room.
Rene: thanks for the website info. It looks like diagram F is the closest to my situation for placing speakers along the long wall.
I will probably need some room treatment on the front wall behind the speakers to absorb the initial bass energy and the side wall to prevent the first reflection point with respect to the listening position.
