So, to make a long story short over a few years of experimenting I came to the realization that I was asking too much of my original stove so I decided to purchase another and I'm trying to figure out which will make more sense to put where. I'm thinking of putting the larger stove in the basement and relocating the smaller stove upstairs. My thought is that it would be a more natural airflow for the heat coming up the stairs down the hall in the bedroom rather than asking the upstairs stove to make a few 90-degree turns up the hall. I made a rough floor plan that is way not to scale 
but I think it's a decent representation of the layout. The gray boxes represent the open stairwell and the stars are the location of the fireplaces with the stoves. Any thought and advice is very much appreciated!
Size to heat: roughly 1800 sq ft
Stoves: Quadrafire Castille insert (34k btu) Quadrafire Classic Bay 1200 (47k btu)
Floor plan: L-shaped ranch, finished basement, stairway completely open to upstairs
