Room dimension are 14x19. The speakers are 6 10 " apart setup in an equalateral triangle.
I have the speakers 3.5 feet from the front and back walls (back wall distance varies depending on where I place my listening chair)
The imaging is solid now I'm currently working on improving overall depth and soundstaging
The room acoustics in this room are quite complicated The room is a difficult layout with lot's of restrictions. GIK Acoustics room treatments have helped to even out the room nodes
but there is still quite a bit of tinkering left
Ideas/suggestions how to further improve the existing layout and performance is welcome !
You can add much enjoyment to your viewing if you go thru your stereo speakers, should you not have SSP. Placing the speakers on either side of the TV not a bad move. Enjoy what you have.
An improvement would be to kill the first reflections from the speakers as seen from the listening position. Here is what to do... Sit in your "sweet spot" and have a friend take a mirror, like a full length one and position it along the left side wall. Have him move it back and forth the wall, with the mirror pressing flat against it. When you can see the left speaker in the mirror from the listening chair, that is the place where you want to apply an absorbant panel. Do the same for the right speaker. For the absorption panel, you could make one out of bed foam material, the egg crate stuff you buy at Wal Mart and put on a bed.
I like to also have my wall behind the speakers "dead" by placing the bed foam all over it and then placing a floor to ceiling curtain there to hide it.
Another trick is to apply small pillows in the cieling corners, helps soundstage and imaging.
These are some tricks that will have great effect. Hope this helps!

I would think the odd-angled walls and ceiling would be a bonus acoustically speaking. It probably sounds quite good. You are doing the right thing by angling the speakers toward the couch. You could even experiment by shifting further to the left.
