If you could arrange your room so that they can be placed on the 24' wall, and place your seat near the rear wall, you might be pleasantly surprised.
If you can do this, place them each 6'(center of the drivers) from the side wall, which gives you 12' (center to center) between the speakers. Try playing with the positioning front/rear with them about 1/2 way (front of drivers( into the room and move them back from there to what sounds best. Toe in being correct (there's a simple "site", like properly aiming a pistol or rifle) makes a big difference. If you put the seat all the way against the wall, move your head into the room and find the spot that sounds best to you. Probably about 2' off the rear wall to your ear.
This setup takes a lot of the room effect out of the equation.
As mentioned above, your ears need to be at least 10' away from the front of the drivers for them to blend properly.
If you try this, and you like it, let us hear back from you?
Good Listening!
