My Yvettes were installed and positioned by my dealer (Paragon Sight and Sound) using Wilson's WASP protocol. Their final positioning after a bit of minor fine tuning on my part is 2 ft. from the back wall, 2.5 ft. from the right side wall, 8 ft. from the left side wall and 7 ft. apart. At the time (Oct. , 2016), my dealer included an optional upgrade color choice (Ipanema Brown) as part of a good deal that included Transparent speaker cables. Ipanema Brown goes perfectly with my earth tone décor. With the AD enhancement, I believe that the Yvettes are in a sweet spot in the Wilson line and they have served me superbly for over 5 years. There is better out there, but at a steeper cost.
Hopes this helps.
Bob
