804S left / right spacing question

What are the optimum left / right spacing for the 804S for HT & 2 channel audio?

I am assuming the settings are different for the two.

Is there a compromise to achieve a good left / right balance for HT and a nice "open" & "imaginary" center stage for 2 channel audio.

My upcoming situation will call for them to be about
8 ft. apart.

Thanks

The "optimum" distance depends on your room, your seating position relative to them and your personal preference; it isn't something that someone else can tell you. Basically, experiment with placement until you find the right spot that works for BOTH music and HT.

Sorry, sitting about 9 to 10ft away. Room is 15' X 15' with 3 closed wals and 1 (left) open wall.

At 9-10ft away, my suggestion would be between 8 and 10 ft apart or somewhere between 30 and 45 degrees and you will have to play with the toe angle to see what gives you the best imaging.
