Class D subwoofers add quite a bit delay so they should be closer than the main speakers.

I hear no delay, they fill in the bass just fine, but more often than not the Subs are not turned ON.

was the opposite. In the HT where I use a pair of subs, they are located at dimensional diagonals to measurably distribute room modes. Poor man's SWARM.

Emotiva "Virtual Copper" facilitates such placement.

  HT doesn't care about phase and delay. All they care about is dB and elephant's feet.

Just realized that your main amp is also class D. So that is about similar delay.

  Are you talking about electrical delay or acoustic delay ?
