My small attic media room should be finished being built soon. I purchased some Polk FxiA4s for surround purposes because my monitor 60s wont fit. my couch will be atleast a foot away from back wall(which angles up to ceiling at about 48in) and I was planning to mount the Polks there. I also have an old pair of small onkyo speakers that came with an HTIB though. Would it be worth wall mounting the Polks to the sides of the couch and then putting the bookshelves on the wall as rears making 7.1? I will try and listen before anything becomes permanent just throwing some ideas around now.
I guess I could potentially stick my Monitor 60s behind couch but they would be right on the wall and are far deeper than the onkyos or even Polk FxiAs. How close is too close for a monopole rear speaker? Both to the wall and listeners.
Thanks
