The music came from the front, the cheering came from the back, it really felt like a concert.

I think though, if you aren't going to take advantage of surround sound, then DVD audio would be a waste. With a halfway decent amp regular, or even old CDs sound more than good enough.
Sounds about where they should be. All speakers should optimally be at ear level when at listening height. This normally means they should be at the head height when sitting on the sofa.
