Set the speakers one third the length of the room out from the wall. Similarly, space the speakers laterally into thirds. Also avoid sitting in the middle of the room as nulls tend to live there.
Final placement was determined empirically by measuring bass response in the bottom three octaves. In my 26' long room, I found about eight feet out from the wall provided the most linear response. As for lateral placement, the U-1s with 90 degree panels work best slightly closer to the walls and toed out. My listening couch is about a third a way out into the room from the opposite wall.
Here's the third octave results:
