So after getting annoyed with logitech i decided to get an av receiver and 5.1 setup i need help with location of speakers, the room limits me a lot!

My av receiver is a yamaha rx-v371
the speakers are boston acoustics soudware xs 5.1
[will run from pc hdmi to av receiver then picture to my u2711]

ive sketched out the room, all practically head height,

i see no problem with the rears, but the front left/right are not at the same angle from the centre, how much does this matter? the yamaha comes with a calibration microphone

i can move the front left to the edge of the wardrobe and bolt it on

can u not wall mount the tv, then place it more central ?

other wise looks fine

The tv is actually my pc monitor, even if it was wall mounted it would still be in the same location.

That looks fine to be honest. Everyone has to compromise slightly from the perfect arrangement and that looks pretty close to perfect.

I take it that the sub is going under the desk?
