Room orientation suggestions

Hello.

I have a very small room that is essentially 9'x12' and I'm wondering if I should experiment with a monitor position other than 38% of the long wall because of the shape of the room. Any suggestions appreciated.

Start at 38% but try moving forward or back to see which is better. The 38% placement is only a starting point.
