On top that, up-firing Atmos is just a gimmick. It doesn't really work u less you have a room set up for it specifically and even then it's not great. If you can't mount actual height speakers, you're better off spending more on your normal surround sound with no height speakers at all.
You can get the much better, next-level up Reference Premiere version of this tower, the RP-6000Fi for $370/ea. or RP-6000Fii for $490/ea. at Crutchfield, and do in-ceiling, on-ceiling, or "height" speakers for Atmos effects that actually work the way that Atmos is supposed to.
Klipsch Reference (R) = how Klipsch got its bad reputation for having shrill/harsh ear-bleeding speakers.
Klipsch Reference PREMIERE (RP) = mostly tamed the overpowering/irritating treble of the former.
Atmos technically only supports on-ceiling or height speaker positions with six positions or more.
DTS:X is more flexible & does support them with 1 or 2 pairs of either including in ceiling.
