Hooked on Horn's and Tubes. Go big or go home
Stand them up on the short sides.
Put them on short stands or Bases
Add some Velcro to turn the lenses Horizontally
Move them out away from the wall
And side walls.
Put down a throw rug
Use a nice sounding tube amp on the high end
And finally Move the car
Ask me how I know

Thanks! Never thought about vertical. Did you put woofers closer or apart?
I will move first and try a carpet.

It's more important to get the mids and highs right in your room for some kind of imaging. depending on how far apart they are.
Those little horn/lenses attached to the powerful 2440 drivers.have a relatively small sweet spot.
I have some nice wood Smith horn clones that are much better
Put them on Dollies and experiment with placements.
don't forget to rotate the slots as well, as the lenses.
woofers to the outside walls can help for additional Bass support. not that they need much help with the big Mac power you have.

It depends a lot on what you expect from them in that environment.
If just a lot of music, loud and room-filling, pretty easy. If you want good imaging and accurate presentation, no easy answer. Ceiling/joists, floor, car, walls, toolbox, ... all going to create so much reflection it's all going to be a compromise, using the space primarily for a garage & workspace and its secondary purpose being for stereo music, one will need to give to the other.

Correct, they are way to big for my neighborhood much less my 20x30' garage. Enormous sound.
Yeah, but it's a pretty bitchin' garage system.
Add a half-naked supermodel to the hood of the Lambo....to minimize reflections, of course
Add several hot babes to absorb those nasty acoustic reflections!
Studio quality acoustic tiles for the ceiling may help, too.
He has a much larger semi-permanent installed patio system, the 4350s and amp rack get wheeled back into the garage.
Fixing my old-school Squeezebox. My portable outdoors and garage system.
