It is definitely possible to have a 5.1.2. You can go up to 5.2.2. However If you use all your 7 channels, (5 main speakers and 2 ceiling speakers in your case), it may have lot of load on your receiver as you are almost using all the channels. It will still get the job done. But if I were you, I would buy a Emotica Amplifier (two channel one) along with this receiver and connect either my Atmos speakers(In ceiling ones) or Front speakers to that Amplifier so that way I have a better quality of sound overall.

During my 2 months with the receiver it performed very well with sound processing. Great for Atmos or any speaker configuration. The overall power output was a tad lacking if you plan on running it loud. Otherwise great receiver for the money and the fact that it's actually available. But if you're going to run it loud wait for the onkyo to come back in stock if you can be patient.
Specifically, do they both max out at 40gbps,, and how do their room calibration systems compare?
