Is there a door to go in and out of the room?

Where the door is would probably dictate what options you have available.

Wall 10 looks like the best spot to me.
Good Luck

You can put your TV and front speakers agaist wall 10 and your seat a few feet away from wall 11. The surround speakers can go on the side walls. The following two threads have helpful diagrams for placing front and surround speakers:
