Both models you've mentioned are forgiving of placement. They work best in corners pointing inwards like cornerhorns or back against the wall on the floor. Flanking your fireplace is no problem, they'll sound very nice there. The relatively small vertical radiation pattern keeps ceiling reflections to a minimum and the horizontal pattern is wide enough to give good coverage. The nice thing about having controlled directivity is it helps imaging and sound quality even rooms that aren't the best.
