open plan surround sound speaker position

Hi All,

I am struggling on the positioning of my Bose left rear and right rear surround sound speakers (5.1 setup) in the living area of my new open plan extension (at the stage of plaster boarding this week). They will be placed about 100mm from the ceiling height (current ceiling height is 2700mm)z

Option 1: on the two side pillars/posts next to the rear sofa. I think if the sofa ends up being positioned slightly further back then they are not really behind the listening position.

Option 2: on the back wall, behind the dining table. I am worried if this too far away (approx 3 metres from the rear sofa) and would the sound bleed out too much?

Option 3: any other suggestions if i have overlooked one :-)

Attached is the floor layout to give you an idea.

Thank you for your help.
