RTI4 - Angle Suggestion

I want an opinion on the angle to point my RTI4s at.

I am using them as my rear surrounds.

The room is 30 feet wide, and 16 feet deep.

The couch sits all the way against the back wall.

The RTI4s will go in the very rear corners of the room, they will be mounted at a height of 8 feet.

So assume that "0" degrees would be pointing completely sideways such that each RTI4 would be facing each other, and "90" degrees would have them facing straight toward the front of the room. I'm guessing somewhere not greater than about 20 degrees.

Also I'm assuming I'd want a slight angle pointing down also????

    i'd mount them at your specified 0 degree, facing each other. your room is very wide. whatever yo do, try out every degree between 0-90. go with whatever sounds best.
