Yeah, there wouldn't be a lot of space behind. With the new construction it wouldn't be much of a problem to run 4 overhead speakers if I'm going to the trouble with 2.
Thank you for the helpful reply. Do you think the two rear speakers could be TL1s and the left and right surrounds Elac OW4.2s? I figure the rear two are going to be the least utilized and thus I could cut cost on that.
Hello, I'm planning on putting a 5.1.4 in my future bonus room which is 16' x 14' x 8'. I have a Denon X3800H on order but am not sure on what speakers to get for a small-ish room. Any suggestions? I'd like to keep it around $2k if possible but am willing to go up more if it's a drastic difference.
