I have read a number of on-line articles and references related to speaker placement.

I will have a flat, acoustically transparent (AT) screen 100" wide. I have about 18" of clearance between the back wall and the screen. From the various articles I've read I have an idea about L/R speaker toe-in towards the listener.

Are there guidelines for spacing the front speakers from the center speaker? I'm sure I don't want the L/R speakers right at the outside edge of the screen. I have a stud for speaker bracket mounting that is about 10" inside the screen. Is that ok? Or should I span the next stud (16" centers) and mount the speaker closer to the middle? How much?

Thank you for any advice.
