The Cary is a very nice preamp and it is a shame to have sidelined for delayed repairs. It should do the job
Yes, the basic Limage starting point is speakers face forwards, 1 ft off the sidewalls and the distance to the frontwall at 40%. Initial listening position is about 2' off the back wall.
First adjustment is determining the distance to the front wall. Since you are in a room with "classic" Limage proportions you can use the crouching walk method to find the room's null plane where you get the cathedral effect. Then move the speakers to that plane and repeat till you get the same position you are already in. (null plane is where the speaker plane is)
Then you adjust the slot to the sidewall to obtain the right tonal balance, Then you proceed to locate the best seat position, usually just a few inches away from the initial mark.
Finally you go for tweaking the toe in - really very fine adjustments.
