jordan122345 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Hey there guys looking at possibly getting some atmos speakers to go with my system. My current system is RF7iii's and rc64iii up front with an Emotova XPA3 running them. Running RS62ii's for side surrounds off of a denon 4400h. And a SVS pb13 ultra. Now I am currently looking at possibly adding just the fronts for now since I dont have a wall in the rear and dont want to hang them either. Later on I will get rears if needed. So my question is is it worth going with a pair of Atmos speakers up front? I was looking at either the r-41sa or the rp500sa. Looks like between the 2 the 500's are the better speaker. But any opinions would be awesome. Thanks as always. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Those speakers are good for DTS, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan122345 Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 Is there actual sound seperation for those channels if I hang them towards the ceiling about the front towers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Dunno, I hang mine as Height Speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I assume I hook then up to the front height jacks correct? The 500sa's you can actually switch on the speaker from atmos the height. Which ones do you have now? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOWFAT930 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 I was using my RP-140's on top of my front towers for awhile (as reflection) and could tell a difference with them on and off. Just experimenting I have hung them on the wall directly above and behind them about 6 inches from the ceiling and can tell about the same amount of difference with them up there. It probably has more to do with the room than anything but I will leave them there for now. It really didn't take long to do it so I'd give it a shot if you like to tinker around with everything a bit like I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
