Thanks. This would be for surround sound for movies.

Ok..then you can save a lot of $$$ you dont need crazy expensive speakers. I am running high end everything in my system an for the 4 atmos speakers (yes , you should do four and space them properly or you will NOT get the correct atmos overhead effect)

here is what I am using and they are outstanding for such a low $$$. you need nothing more then these for atmos surround and your receiver will calibrate all speakers..

for the money these are excellent and only go with the 8" don't do 6". I am using these right now for my atmos for 2+ years and there excellent no reason to break the bank for the overheads and they are more then capable anyways..

What are the chances of the 3800 getting any cheaper than this ($1,259) before the end of the year?

Thanks! I already have 4 "height" speakers (Polk S10 speakers mounted high on the front and back walls pointed down) for Atmos... I figured with the 2 extra channels on the 6800 over my current 4300 I'd add some speakers directly over the listening area on/in the ceiling.

They have to be spaced properly if your going to do that mixing 4 on the walls front to back then having 2 in the middle in ceiling... You can do that , you will get added benefits form it but not as good if all the speakers were in ceiling but since you already have it like that it's still a plus to add the 2..

Regular sale item that happens every 3-4 mths. The last time it was from Adorama. I guess their products are not moving as much hence the sale. The Marantz is the same product with different sticker and a slight variation of sound. If you are using the Denon for movies then it is good. If you want free Dirac then go for the Onkyo, Pioneer, etc... otherwise you will have to pay for it.

waiting for it to get down to $1,000 again. Hopefully we'll see it soon, overwise, my marantz sr7007 will have to hold me over until it gets to the $1K price point

100% chance if you CALL an authorized independent dealer.

hi
I'm finishing my basement and I'm looking to build a 7.1.4 or 7.2.4 system and in addition to this whole house audio. Can I use 4 of the speakers you referenced for 4 channels of atmos and buy 8 more to use for the whole house audio? Or would you recommend something cheaper for the whole house?
For the receiver planning to use 9x Denon or Yamaha and connect an existing Yamaha 5x to the out for the remaining channels. Does it sound good?

Thanks for your help!

You can do what you wrote... If you want good music sounds not "great" then these are a great sounding speaker that is affordable with great review. The square 8" ones sound better overall for music so if you can use them, they are excellent for music. The 8" in-ceilings are great for atmos surround, using them now for 2+ years with all high end speakers, they sound great. If you want "higher end" sounding music through your entire house then I would recommend you spend much more and get something like the klipsch units but will cost more. I would NOT recommend anything cheaper(as you stated) as it will sound like cr*p! These are much better then "cheap" speakers at a great price , read the reviews...

In my experience every speaker matters in quality.

Proper positioning is vital also.

The only reason to go with the 6800 is if you needed 13 channel processing/3 pairs of "Atmos" placements.
If so here is the optimal layout to follow IME.

If you're looking for free Dirac you could look into A1EVO with Denon/Marantz.
This would include DLBC performance, you'll have to pay for that with Pioneer,Onkyo, Integra(if it offers it).

You don't have to buy a new receiver either!
