I like the idea of the blanket as well. My wife makes designer quilts and I have one the size of my 60" RPTV, which is recessed into the wall leaving 16" projecting out into the room. My speakers are about 18" in front of the plane of the TV and 22" to the sides. Your distance will be different depending on your speakers' radiation pattern, height, timbre, etc. It is a reflective surface and scattered high frequencies. The sound is alot truer and natural with the blanket in place. Good luck
room setup
I have read several articles including Cardas and the audio perfectionist about room/speaker setup. After many hours of trial an error I have come up with an optimum placement of the speakers.
Practicality dictates that my TV be setup between my speakers about 2 feet behind the front of the speakers. As we all know practicality simply goes out the window with our affliction. It seems to me that not only threoretically but in reality the TV becomes a reflective surface producing negetive imaging, etc. I will probably start experimenting, but its really not easy to move the 32 inch TV and the cabinet that it sits on. Any one want to weigh in on this?
