Surround Sound Speaker Placement

I’m not quite getting the surround effect with my system (I watched Top Gun Maverick Last night, and the flyovers were not what I expected from an audio perspective).  My current setup is Arc + 2 Era 300 surrounds + 2 Sub Gen 3s.  I’ve ran TruPlay.  Are my surround speakers too close to my seating area (see pictures).  Any suggestions are appreciated!

The surrounds are a little close. The ceiling fan could be blocking some of the height channel effects too.

Have you adjusted the Height Audio level in the Sonos app? How tall is the ceiling? How far are you seated from the Arc? What does it sound like when a jet flies over?
