That's a configuration I was thinking about also...that might work out, but I could be closing in on my center speaker which is mounted on the wall. More measuring.

According to this http://www.bcae1.com/

seires/parallel keeps the ohms the same, so why not go with 8ohms, wouldn't they be "easier" to drive?

Its easier on them amp, runs cooler etc, but the 1,000 watt plate amp from PE only gives 512watts at 8 ohms.
