I had a full size klipsch RP 5.2.2 setup in my large living room a few years back. We decided to move our TV location to a much smaller room, where those speakers were waaayy to big. I purchased the non-atmos version of this (but kept one of my SVS subs to pair with it). Was a downgrade for sure. But was a good compromise in terms of size and space savings.
I'm interested in these surrounds as I have an ideal ceiling for the up firing atoms layout. Anyone have experience with these yet vs traditional down firing atmos?
Thanks

My buddy got an Onkyo RZ630 9.2 receiver only 3 years ago for $399 before the pandemic blew up. I was also able to buy a Denon x4500 for under $700 back then.
Hopefully when production ramps back up the prices will drop again.

With these enabled modules it can be a challenge in the average home.
Even with the overhead layout, in the average home it's not easy to follow those placements.
That is why they have these alternatives, so people have choices.
All things being properly placed, overhead is the best performance.
Another thing to consider. Would buying a new 9.1(2) receiver at a premium be worth whatever the results would be.
I'm not sure it would be with this quality of speakers.
IMO you are better off concentrating on building a good/better 5.1.
Here are how the two layouts should look like:

height speakers pointed at main listening position is second best
upfiring Atmos speakers are 3rd best
I started with upfiring speakers and didn't like it. Now I use height speakers for Atmos and it works well.

Those built in speakers are the (4) in the end of 5.1.(4).
They are designed to point up to the ceiling and reflect the sound off of it to simulate the "Atmos" sound.
