65 inches wide Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

after measuring again...I think I'm going to go with the 250f's and pb2000 for their smaller footprint. I've got 110" MAX wall to wall width. TV takes up 65 inches. so ive got 45 inches of width left to put two towers and a sub. and, thats not leaving any space in between components. so with 8 inch wide 250f's and 18 inch wide sub I'm left with only 11 inches to spread out between all of the components and most of that will be pulling towers away from the TV. So, I'm really hoping they sound good even though the room is pretty big. As of now, I've got 250f's front, 450c center, pb2000 sub, and rp140sa for surrounds. I've been going back and forth on the rp140sa or rp240s for surrounds, but I'm going to be forced to mount them at the top of our side walls and im thinking since they are 10-12 ft from the MLP I would be better off with the 140sa instead of the dipole surrounds. And the angle of the 140sa will get them pointed pretty closely to the MLP. Or, would the rp240s sound better since they will diffuse and not be as easy to locate. I've attached some photos of my Living room to show my dilemma (excuse the mess). Wife has already said no speakers mounted on the walls, so they will have to be up in the corners of the wall/ceiling. It puts them at about 100 degrees from MLP but about 3 feet too high.

I've got it narrowed down a bit more now. Having to do some tradeoffs to meet budget. Option 1 : 250f fronts, 250c, r115sw Option2 : 260f fronts, 250c, r112sw

AKA a 3 channel passive soundbar

Would a single 115sw be better than 2 smaller subs? (Svs pb1000). Also, could I get away with bookshelves instead of towers? Something like 250c, rp160m for fronts, and 2 pb1000 subs. With a setup like that is there any issues with placing the bookshelves directly on top of the subs? They subs would be roughly the same height as my console but I could move them out further on top of the subs. Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

Getting my first home theater system. It will be going in our living room and used mainly for movies and general tv watching. The room is 20ftx22ft with cathedral ceilings (15 ft at top, 10 ft at lowest) and the room opens up to the back to our kitchen and dining area. Listening position is about 15 ft from the center channel speaker. My dilemma is this...We don't listen to anything very loud. But I really appreciate good clear sound and special effects in movies etc. And, I'd want the smallest footprint that will still sound good. I'm debating the rp250f fronts with 440c or 260f fronts with the 450c. I'm pretty sure I'll get the 115sw either way, and the 140sa for surround. Do I need the bigger speakers if we don't use much volume? only reason I'm considering the bigger ones is due to the size of the room.
