yup, that looks like a tough one. in ceilings may be the best bet for surrounds. otherwise left surr. goes on bookshelf or stand and right surr. is either on stand or wall behind you or in front of you. or of course, there are ceiling brackets too. the general rule of thumb is the surrounds should be above and behind you and not pointed directly at the listening area. i think the trickiest part will be that right surround.

or you could try one of the other solutions like the yamaha you mentioned or one of the kef solutions.

good luck
