Hello. First post.
I'm in an open floor plan and am considering upgrading my home theater setup. I'm looking for advice about the audio setup in order to get Atmos going.
The space is somewhat awkward as it's in one corner of the great room. Currently there's a 7.1 system there with all the speakers flush mounted in the ceiling (except the sub which is on the floor on the right side near the corner).
It would be easy to add front left, center, and right speakers but adding other speakers could be a little tricky due to the space.* Does it make sense to add those three speakers and reallocate the ceiling speakers?
* The front wall is 10.5' away. The right wall meets the front wall and is 9' away. The left wall is 16' away across the entryway and dining room. The rear wall is 25' away across the kitchen. I'm not completely opposed to putting speakers on the left and rear but those seem pretty far away/imbalanced.
Any ideas?
