All setup guidelines are approximate, you need to experiment. As a rule, the panel speakers need a goodly distance from the front wall. at leat 3 ft. and better yet 5 ft. one of the effects of being too close to the front wall is a sunken and diffuse center image so that the individual speakers are easily heard as separate sources.The 1.7 are supposed to require more toe in than the predecessors but the drivers are roughly time aligned in the tweeters out position. That may improve central image. Try it on your setup with tweeters out. Listening distance is rather easy to determine by trial and error, so just proceed with adjusting the seating for each speaker adjustment.
