where would one locate the side speakers with two ros of seats.

would I place the side speakers in between the 1st and 2nd row, or to the side of the 2nd/back row, slightly angled toward the 1st/front row?

Are your side speaker direct radiating or bipole/dipole? I have bipoles and have them between the 2 rows of seats and it works fine for me. I have read though , that with the bipoles ,you should really have them even with the middle of the 2nd row of seats. They will then work the way they should with the 2nd row and the 1st will still benefit from them. Mine are where they are due to the layout of my room as the in wall equipment rack is directly across from the 2nd row.
