Re: Speaker Placement Suggestions
No one can really tell you the best placement just by looking at a floor plan. You need to figure out the room acoustics and such for the best placement, and decide which compromises you're willing to make in regards to where they
should be placed and where they
can be placed. You didn't say whether your system has small satellites or large bookshelf systems where the mains can produce their own bass, but regardless, here are a couple of links to get started.

Re: Speaker Placement Suggestions
Basically your manual should tell you placement then. Center on top of the TV, left and right to the left and right of the TV obviously, and the surrounds in the rear corners behind you. I'd still do the sub crawling thing as you'll get the best output that way.

Re: Speaker Placement Suggestions
Perhaps one rear on the corner or the end of the yellow wall on the upper right side of the diagram, and one on the corner of the entrance way on the bottom right (assuming your seating is along the wall). I'd wall mount them up along the ceiling line and aim them away from the seating for a more diffused sound. Of course, you should play with the aiming and everything and see what you like best.
The fronts should be as I said in the previous post, to the left and right of the TV, and center on top/under the TV.
