Just moved into a new place and am struggling with speaker placement.

For background, our old house was bigger so I had the space for two setups - a pair of Wharfedale Lintons in the living room and Zu Audio DW mkIIs in the basement.

In the new place, I can only keep one pair of speakers which will need to go into the living room. However, as you can see from the photo, we have a custom tv bench that extends the entire length of the wall which makes placing floor standers or massive bookshelves like the Lintons challenging.

I’ve suggested to the wife that we can place the speakers in front at either end, but that did not go down so well haha.

Anyone have any recommendations? Or do I have to give up both pairs and get some smaller bookshelf speakers? I’m very unfamiliar with bookshelves as I’ve always preferred the aesthetic of floor standers

I run a Decware Zen Triode amp, so I’m limited to speakers with 90db sensitivity and above.

      Ja, I have a Lyngdorf TDAI 1120 to run Room Perfect, so I’m less worried about the room. But unfortunately speakers in front of the windows is a no-go, what you don’t see from the is that the windows extend another 3 meters to the right along the whole wall, so it’s just not feasible sadly
