I bought this last year and setup in the living room that has 21' high ceiling, open to kitchen and hallway. The sound is great and very satisfied even though the room layout is not ideally acoustic. I'm not a audiophile though.

Can I install in roof?
Sure, but you should cover it with a tarp to protect it from the elements.

Jamo, Energy, AR and Klipsch are owned by the same company folks:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voxx_International
https://www.soundandvision.com/co...amo-energy

Anyone remember cheap dime store Audiovox from the 80's?? Hello.... Grown up now!

That being said, Klipsch is still a premier audio candidate despite the naysayers. It is one of Voxx's premier lines. I have had Cambridge Audio, HK, Klipsch and Bose for the past 30yr and will tell you this is a bang up deal. I currently run a 7.4.2 Atmos setup with the previous set to this (Quintet 5.0). Only difference is that it did not come with subs or the glorious looking gold cones (which I find ridiculous). Otherwise, they are identical, sound is identical. Added two SW-311 subs (if anyone knows about these, you know they rock (two passives, one active)). Worth every penny for this set at $299. As stated, had quintet 2, 5.0, Promedia 2 and 4. All sounded great. Buy at $299, you will not be disappointed!

Thanks. How are you running 7.4.2? Which AVR? Are you using external amp/preamp with AVR? I have powerhouse Yamaha Avantage 11.2 but struggling to get good Atmos and power without expensive pre amp.

This paired with the yamaha receiver they also have is a stellar deal. Other than Sony receivers, the Yamaha is one of the cheapest options that supports Dolby Atmos.

What's the reason for wired setup for subwoofer? Is there an improvement in bass/sound quality in wired setup over wireless setup. I went with wireless, as I didn't have cable setup for subwoofer and don't see any issues. If there's significant improvement in quality in wired setup, I will consider going for that.
Many enthusiasts prefer wired over wireless as it's the best possible option. Wireless can be fine too but it's not better or equal than a wired sub. The biggest disadvantage of wireless can be noise which in many units is the case. But the advantage is you can freely place the sub in the best possible location of your room.

is there any pre-defined way to mount any of the speakers or would it require some hodge-podge means?

edit: I now see it says
"Wall Mountable Design"

but does that mean it comes with mounts?

I have 3 of the centers as fronts (L,R,C)- two vertical, one horizontal obviously. Actually works very well!. Rest are upper wall / ceiling mounted. Yamaha Aventage RXA-3070 for 7.2 (2 x SW-311's) paired with an Emotiva A-700 Amp with trigger for .4's (I want to say it was $650). Sound is amazing. Fire up a Dolby Vision / Atmos movie on Disney Plus such as the latest Aladan (Will Smith) and you will be blown away! Yamaha 3070 was the last good receiver they made IMO. They even added eARC support via firmware upgrade!! 3080 they killed the front HDMI which I use quite a bit and added audio AI which is a gimic. New series has not even come close to 3070 in features, added 8k support but still no front HDMI. Oh, and it doesn't do anything over 7.1. I don't need no stinkin 8K!... pfft...

Okay speaker dudes, got a question/seeking advice.

I currently have a mixed set.

Denon AVR-S750H receiver, KLH AV-5001 tower speakers for fronts, center speaker from an old Yamaha HTIB set, and the two front speakers from that same set are being used for the rears.

From what I can tell I don't have any issues currently with the KLH, but the center gets drowned out constantly and the rears could use some oomph.

Obviously this Klipsch set would be great to replace the center/rears, but what about the fronts? I know size isn't everything and those KLH towers are super old, but will I be able to get the same sound from these MUCH smaller speakers?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Any suggestions on a receiver that would pair best with these?

I think you could keep your existing front towers and add the extra two speakers as height speakers for Dolby Atmos if your receiver can handle it. In my case, I bought the Klipsch R-41M from Costco as well and use as fronts and moved the two extra up top for a full Atmos setup.
