    5.2.2 rear on wall height OR 7.2 on wall rear surrounds?[emoji2962]

    Guess I'll start with my setup so far and what I plan to do. So far I have a pair of RP6000F's run by a Denon X3500H(7.2 / 5.2.2). I ran audyssey XT32 room calibration. Kept the XT32 room Eq. But disabled the dynamic stuff, dont really need volume control. I planned on getting pair or rp500m for surround but recently considering the bipole rp502s. I also want to get rp500sa for back surround OR rear height OR Front height/atmos, which is my dilemma...

    My listening area is 10.5ft(according to audyssey)x13ftx16ft. Couch 4" off back wall and can place side surround on speaker stands 3'-5' max from sides of couch. Right side having a big window, left being more open room.

    For best listening experience in a situation where couch is against wall(actually about 4" off wall) 1. Should I use bipole or monopole for side surrounds?
    2. Should I run the rp500sa as surround back (7.2)and little closer to MLP. Or throw them like 8ft above and 4-5ft apart MLP and do height / atmos OR front height (5.2.2) [emoji51][emoji2962] I'm so torn lol. Thanks in advance! -Paul L.

    I'm certainly no expert, but I would probably go with 5.2.2 with monopole surround speakers to the sides.

      Why monopole over bipole, IYO?
