hey guys, I'm buying a 5.1 surround sound system for my bed room and i need to know where the best spots to place the speakers are. The shape of my room is kinda awkward. i will be using the system for Xbox 360 and to watch blueray.

I have a CAD drawing of my room, if you could take a screen shot and place dots where the speakers would go and re post that would be great.

Also if you could give me some specs. I'm kinda new to surround sound, if you could recommend systems for my room that would be appreciated.

The Circles with numbers in them are the places id be sitting. (1) is for playing xbox (most important) and (2) is for watch blueray.

Here are the drawings

Talk about door congestion.

There's not a real good solution for the room as is. Based on the drawings, to optimize A/V performance:

1) Swap the desk and bed. Headboard against the wall.
2) Hang TV between windows opposite bed.
3) L/C/R above spaced along the TV wall. Obviously center above/below the TV. L/R spaced for best imaging.
4) RS/LS can go on the side walls aimed somewhere around the pillow position on your headboard.
