room setup

lmao
mc you never cease to amaze.
 I've been reading these forums for years. Many moons ago you made the statement "everything matters" those 2 words should be at the forefront of every topic.

I would not know the answer, but want to point out that you can disguise heavy drapes or sound treatments into the wall with the window much easier than the other wall(s), in case that matters to you. My speaker wall has a 6-8ft wide window that takes up most of the wall, with thick, heavy drapes that definitely makes a difference in sound quality. 

Good luck

Are you going to acoustically treat the room? If yes, then I would install the window in the rear short wall. Having a solid wall behind speakers will afford you greater flexibility with room treatments (diffuser or broadband acoustic panel or flat panel TV).

Good luck!

Followed by, and I mean literally the very next comment:

I don’t think it makes any difference.

Now I am lmao!

Seriously, the reason for the window joke is there’s more to a room than the system. (I know, hard to believe.) Even a dedicated room like mine has a door somewhere, and a shape, and that sets a traffic flow pattern, and that is but one of many practical use factors we cannot ignore. Just maybe the sound in my room would be better with the speakers on the long wall. But not much and that one thing would be so greatly outweighed by everything else I never even bothered to try and find out.

"Everything matters" indeed! Including things that have nothing to do with the sound.

btw, which avatar do you prefer? Madame LeModerateur? Or Einstein? I'm leaning Einstein. Though the other one is not without her rather obvious attractions.
