FYI, for those who follow Jim Smith's protocol for setting up speakers, and have a hardwood or tile floor, I found this helpful aid... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HPYXN30/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
When I had my Summits, I created my own "tape rulers" using painters tape and a marker, but this is a lot easier!
Only caveat is to first make sure your starting reference points for laying down the tape (wall, etc.) is straight/parallel. Using a laser measure, I found my front wall veers ~1-1/2" from left to right. I ended up dropping a plumb bob from a cross-ceiling truss to establish a true reference for the tape. Once everything is dialed in, I'll measure actual speaker distance from front wall, and remove the tape.
