Is this setup recommended? The poster has mounted his Arc directly under the TV and pushed the soundbar forward so that none of the speaker is covered (here’s a pic).

I’m having an Arc mounted on an MM540 Mantel Mount under a Sony 75” TV this week. There’s a lot of ambiguity about the optimal setup. On the Sonos Arc wallmount marketing page they say the Sonos must sit 4” below the TV. On the installation page, one sentence says 4” below and a few steps down it says 5.5” below.
Elsewhere (that I can’t put my hands on right now) I’ve seen it recommended that the Arc be 2” in front of the TV if it’s directly below it; which seems to be in conflict with the way this redditor set it up.
I don’t have the luxury of mounting, trying it out and remounting if it doesn’t work, but would like to minimize distance between TV and Arc if at all possible.
Thoughts? Thanks in advance.
