Which wall of the listening room is which?

There seems to be no consensus on which is the front wall and which is the rear wall of our listening rooms, which leads to confusion when trying to visualize just what a poster is trying to say about his speakers in his room.

 

For me, the names are based on the direction the listener is facing.  Thus, the wall behind the main speakers (where the listener is facing) is the front wall, and the wall behind the listener is the rear wall.  Can we agree on this?  It would reduce guessing and confusion, which has to be a good thing.  It would also reduce the number of posts that are sometimes necessary to clarify exactly what a poster means, which is also a good thing.

Yes we can.  Front speakers equals front wall.  Rear speakers equals rear wall.:P
