[What sub with RP-260F’s]

I am no expert here at all. But my friend is. He said a general rule of thumb is two speaker sizes. So if you have the rp-260f’s a (8, 10) would be two sizes up.  Of course then he said you can never have too much bass!  I have been back and forth on the 12 or 15’s

[Height Front or Top Front for Atmos?]

I have the top fronts right now.  Just finishing my man cave with in ceiling. I am thinking I will get better sound.

Yikes, are you sure you want to go that far? I personally think 7.2.4 is more than enough, and I'd rather use the extra budget for RF7's... 😉

Future proof!  thanks for the input! Great looking Room!

 

[Pro's vs CDT's]

Thank-you - So much to get caught up on!

 

[Pro's vs CDT's]

Okay so this is my first post here - I have gone into the rabbit hole, and can't seem to find my way back up!

 

I have a 13' W X 28'L X 7'H room that I am doing a 7.2.4 System in

First row is 9.6' Feet from the TV and the second Row is 12.6' from the TV

 

I am looking at the RP8000F's for the towers (unless trump sends me more money then I will go with the RF 7 III's!) and the RP504C for the center Channel (Again please Mr Trump send me more money so I can get the RF 64 III Center)

 

Surrounds are either R-5600-S II , R-5800-S-W II or Pro-180RPW (I have cutouts for the Surrounds at 9.6' cause lets be honest that's the row I will be sitting in - so all Atmos / in-ceiling was calculated on this viewing distance)

Atmos is either (4) CDT-5800-C II or the Pro-180 RPC's

and because I don't have a good location for Rear towers or book shelves I was thinking of either the CDT-5800C II or the PRO-18RPC LCR's in Ceiling  I have tried to future proof as well with the eventual addition of a mid or Center Rears and Atmos - so I guess that would be a 8.2.6? and or additional Surrounds (making it a 10.2.6?)  

 

Just not sure if the upgrade to the Pro's is worth it for the Atmos? - Also the  Pro's don't seem to have adjustable Tweeter, and Woofer Angle? (And I am not really in love with the Look of the Pro's in ceilings without the grills - but the cinematic sound is more important)

 

and the Subs will be SPL-120 or 150's (hey there is a sale going on!)

 

This will all be powered with a Marantz SR8012

And an Emotiva XPA GEN3 Six-0 to power /bi-amp the fronts (and future ready for the RF7 III's and RF64 III's)
