Hello all,
Now that I finally managed to get a pair of speakers working as I reported here (https://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?60197-New-to-hi-fi-what-to-buy), I miss some key points to install them on the right place.

Since the cable that came with the speakers is fairly short, I would need to replace it. Right now I've placed the speakers on the only spot that I can acommodate comfortably the whole set.
As you can see, this is far from the best approach to get the immersive sound I'm looking for.
The speakers are Denton 2, with 6 Ohm of impedance, so based on this chart (http://faq.yamaha.com/us/en/article/live_sound/pa_systems/stagepas_300/2521/7034) I'm considering to get some 16 gauge audio cable (so I can get a max of 40 ft of cable for each speaker).
I took some measurements of the room and knowing that there's no right answer for this, I would like to know what would be your opinion on the best place to locate the speakers.
Please consider that:
- The ceiling is vaulted, and the floor has a carpet.
- On the photos, the bed is vertical and is on the other end.
- The photos are from before I moved in, so please ignore the dust ;)
- the speakers are on the place you can see the head of the bed on the picture.
- each blue square represent 0.5 meters (aprox 19.68 inches or 1 foot 7 11⁄16 inches)

So if you're willing to give me a hint, address with the coordinates in the answer :)
What do you think on my pick for the cable section (16 Gauge)?
Thank you
