Greetings,
I've just joined this forum after reading some insightful articles and quickly reading a few posted messages.
I just moved into a townhouse and I'm starting my HT from scratch. I'm trying to benefit from the rather unusual layout of the living room to place a front projector with a 92" diagonal 16:9 screen.
Here's a quick snapshop of what the living room layout looks like, as well as my priliminary setup.

Note: I'm still in "planning" stage. I have not bought any equipment yet and I'm free to change the layout if anyone can suggest better plan.
My main question is this: with the screen being 6ft behind the 2 mains and the center, will this grossly affect the sound stage and the perception of moving elements in movies? Is it something reasonable, or this setup is just awful?
I'm really leaning towards floorstanding mains because I plan on doing lots of 2-channel listening (as well as 5.1 music). Right now I'm considering the Anthony Gallo Ref 3's as mains, and perhaps the nucleus series for center and surrounds.
Any help/suggestion will be greatly appreciated!
