room setup options


I'm moving into a new house soon and I wanted to get some opinions on how I could setup my speakers in the living room. The main floor is mainly open between living room, kitchen and dinette (there is a half-wall from the kitchen into the living room). Also, half the room has a vaulted ceiling. Here are two possible options I drew up (mainly based on George Cardas' advice).

Option 1

Option 2

Thanks for the response Carey, and sorry for the confusing drawings. I dont have any drafting background either, I just quickly did those diagrams just more of a reference for the size of the room for myself. You're right it is an L shaped room... the living room is the main rectangular room, and off to the right is the dinnette and kitchen.

I should have included my speakers in my original post, they're Dynaudio C1 bookshelfs.
Thanks guys... I'll try both options out, I just wanted to get an idea of what to start off with based on the experience of others.

Xti16... you're right they're not bookshelfs and it did sound weird when I typed it out, but I couldn't think of another word to use at the time.
