RCW-5 wall mounts OK for ceiling mount?

I have a set of RF-5's for mains and an RC-7 for my center. I was just about to buy 4) RS-7's for my side and rear surrounds, but it appears I am now plagued with the WAF. Now, I am considering 4) RCW-5's instead. I would have to mount them in the ceiling firing down because I have a header beam behind the sheetrock in one of the wall mount locations. They are infinite baffle type just like the standard ceiling mounts, so I assume this would not be a problem, but would like some input on the subject. Any help will be most appreciated.

Let me first just say, I don't really understand your drywaller's lingo Wink.gif, but there are also RCR-5's that are made for ceiling mounting. There is no reason why the RCW's wouldn't work, but they are going to give a more directional sound (will fire the sound right at you.) In general, round ceiling speakers are better for surround, because, like a bi/dipole, they tend to spread the sound out throughout the area. If you go with the RCW's you might find that that is all you'll hear.
