ERA 300 placement - diagonal viewing position

Hi,

 

Anyone have any experience with a diagonal room viewing setup?  The 2 red dots are the usual viewing positions.  My question relates to the ERA surround placement, to be honest this is the only option for the room.

In both listening positions the surrounds sit slightly forward of the listening plane for each person, will this still result in an immersive sound stage? Or should I just stick with the Arc and the Sub?

The setup is not ideal but I see why you're doing it the way you're doing it. I think based on true play, the room will probably be correctly measured and you'll still get a pretty decent sound effect and by far better than just the sound bar in a sub. And I believe that I would tow them in a little bit more towards the listening position seeing as how they are in front of the listening position. I think personally I would seek a flat wall for my TV and then work the theater from there.
