iliak Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 How is it compared to Atmos dedicated speaker? Due to budget limit and the cost of Klipsch atmos speakers x3-x5 vs 41m here. My setup . Denon x2200. Front 160m. Center 450c. Sub svs pc12plus And very bad surround and back speakers not worth to mention (looking for a replacement at the moment) Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paducah Home Theater Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 upfiring atmos speakers have to adhere to a certain frequency response with certain notches. In other words, it's not flat. This is necessary to pull off the psychoacoustic effect. You take a flat speaker and point it at the ceiling... it's not the same. I'm sure you'll get some cool effects but you're going to be able to localize them more than ones that were designed to do this due to the frequency response.

This is why I have 4 KPT-200's with lighter neo woofers hanging from my ceiling for full Atmos effect. They are also in perfect symmetry of distance from my head.

If you are wanting a semi-atmos effect, mount the 41's high pointing down toward your listening position.
