There’s a rule of thumb that says there’s an optimal relationship between the front wall, listening position, and rear wall. You want to be 1/3 from the rear wall, and the speakers 1/3 from the front (assuming traditional ‘box speakers’).
Fun experiment: get your speakers at least 4-5 feet from the wall, and about 5-6’ apart. Stick yourself about 1-2’ in front of the speakers, dead centre between the two, and play your music that way.
It’s a very different experience. And it’s very good.
