help with setting up the best sound possible from my 5:1

[carlm2011]

hi there,
I have just bought the "Sony str dn 1080" av receiver with a "e-9F Dali SUB" with 5 "Cambridge Audio Minx min 22" and its all linked to a Sony Bravia 4k tv, and was wondering if anybody could help me setup speakers to get the best possible sound out of them including the sub woofer.

Without better tools (do you have an spl meter?) I'd just run the DCAC program in the Sony to start and then tweak to preference from there, but it should help you out with basic level/delay settings. Try this, too https://www.audioholics.com/home-theater-connection/how-to-set-up-5.1-speaker-home-theater-system

A picture of your room would really help us but keep in mind you're going to be very limited by those cube/satellite speakers.

The room is about 5m x 5m

Why not move the TV on that wall with a mirror is

I have thought that numerous times, but it’s just getting someone to do a good job because i want it all inset, I’ve had bad experience with traders before

I'd start with the TV position, as said by another here, put it on the wall, or, for wiring convenience, place the TV on TV/component cabinet in

front of the wall. This will give you some room to experiment with front left and right speaker position.
