I don't know if this properly belongs to Listening Space so if it does, please move it there. I figured there's more traffic here and I may be able to get my answer sooner.
I want to reposition my system across the end other end of my living room. Unfortunately, the layout of the room is not ideal: I've got two large windows on the long side and open space on the other and my daughter's piano is taking up space on the side of my current set up so it precludes me from pulling out the speakers and having a second pair side by side (which is actually my real intent for the move). I have attached a panoramic pic of the room as well as the tentative placement of the speakers, which is approximately 32" from the back wall. As you see the left speaker will be on the open side of the room with a lot of space on the side.
I want to ask for your opinions before I start moving stuff around. Should I stick to the old place where it is quite enclosed or try my luck with the new spot? What are the things that I would need to take into consideration when doing this move? My main concern is how the new position will affect the sound. Will the open space to the speaker on the left affect the sound negatively?
