I would also try them without any toe-in at all- faced straight out and parallel with the back wall. However, you do sit pretty close so I would experiment with toeing them in as well, but with those bipolars I think they sound best straight up.
Here is a work in progress pic. I will have the the wires cleaned up and the final positioning by the weekend

Bi-polar speakers are not intended to have toe-in. You could experiment with it and find out it basically ruins the sound stage but unless they are extreme distances apart, you should leave them even.

Are you running both subs like that? Sheesh that Monster sub is wide!

Anyway, yeah, move your BP6's out further and remove the toe-in. See if that doesn't open up your soundstage quite a bit. You'll have to either move that other sub or remove it entirely. I would try and get setup without it for now.

The bipolars are about 12" from the wall curently. I intend to move the second sub, I just dont know where yet. Doing the crawl test it sounded best right where it is. The next best is behind the couch, But I do not believe the wife will allow me to place it there. Third best was on top of the other sub. But the sub moves around if placed there. I will have to do some more experementing.
