Sound panels on pitched ceiling?

Hi Guys - I have made about 7 sound panels and I have a very interesting ceiling that is "pitched" ...comes to a dome kind of like this guy's place (Ethan Winer pic) in this link ...

I was curious what you guys think is the best place to mount the panels ....right in the ceiling peak or on each side of it? Speakers will be about 24" from wall , I will be listening on other side about 6-8 feet away ....2 panels directly behind speakers, 1 on wall behind (large window curtain helping)  so I have 4 to mount on ceiling 4'x16"'s...thanks! 

Tekton DI SE's coming!

What is your flooring?

Should point out that those are actually bass traps. So that is why corners are most effective. :) 

Tekton's have a narrow coverage angle from the midrange to the treble. It means direct reflections are less important, but dispersion and overall resonance remains a factor to manage.
