The BIC PL-980 appear to be outstanding speakers. There's a very large thread over at AVS that you can read and see what owners think.

If you want Atmos, you're going to have to do a 5.2.2 setup. You will not be able to run a 7.2.2 Atmos setup with that Onkyo receiver.

Thanks for the info.Outside of onkyo is there a 7.2 receiver that will run atmos with a 7.2 speaker set up?

You'll have to get a 9.2 receiver to run 7.2.2 Atmos.

Denon X4300.

There are other 9.2 Atmos receivers as well from Onkyo, Pioneer, Marantz, and Yamaha.
