I currently have only capacity for 2 people in my home theatre on 2 overstuffed chairs with footrest (that could fit 2 more and has been done but not ideal). My plan is to add seating for at least 2 more in the space i have. The main concern is width due to limited space in that department. With my current seating arrangement i could get something with a max of about 48" in width. I found one solution and that is to order 2 of these http://www.walmart.com/ip/Twin-Size-Studio-Chair-Sleeper-Black/10153954 and use them as just additional chairs. Keep in mind the sleeper function of these would rarely if never be used. Mostly middle school to high school aged kids will be using this area so it cant be too expensive and somewhat durable. If you think this is a good move or have a better idea (with product links) please tell me!

I would look into some home theater seats that have what they call "space saver design." Space saver design is perfect if you have limited space. The seat can be place around 3 inches from the wall and can still fully recline. The site I listed in the source below has these kind of home theater chairs. They even have a seating distance / screen size calculator.

When I'm setting up my speakers.... what's the best location....height and distance from center of room??
Answer
Every room is different but here are some general rules...
Left and Right should be placed at about 40% height. Try your initial placement of the Left and right using 1/5 distance. I.e., if the room is 20 ft wide, divide by 5 (=4) and place the speakers centered at 4' in from each side wall. 1/3 and 1/7th positions can also be used depending on the room. 1/7 positioning requires more rigid acoustics and better control of the speaker disperson to avoid reflection problems.
The center should be at the identical height to the left and right. Ideally, the center should be set back from the front plane of the left and right to achieve proper delays (use a tape measure and set the center at the same distance from the centered listening position as the left and right). If you do not have this luxury, you'll need to employ delays on the AV receiver or AV preamp to electronically make them all the same distance.
Rear surround placement height should be centered at 1/3rd the way down the wall. On an 8 ft tall ceiling, this puts them centered at approximately 2' 5/8" down. Lateral placement is strictly a function of the design of the speaker and coverage of the listening area. You want the surrounds to cover the listening area as evenly as possible. With dipole sides, they should be set even to slightly behind the head position on the row of seats (reclined if they are reclining). With monopoles, you want to look at how wide the listening area is and using what you know about the monopoles polar response (which should be in the specs), calculate up where the monopoles should be to give you the most even coverage to the seating area. If you are using a THX Ultra rated speaker system, you can normally use a THX ASA placement with good results.
Subwoofer placement is strictly a function of room nodes. Most folks who do not have the experience to run room node calculations will simply have to experiment with placement. Try the same placement as the front left and right as a starting point and then go from there.
