Hi, I am about to build new home and have included a HT room.
The HT room will be 3.8 meters (12.4 foot long) and 3.6 meters wide (11.8 foot wide). The LCD will be on one 3.6 meter wall and the couch will be up against the opposite 3.6 meter wall. The room will be used for watching movies 95% of the time.
I currently have a Yamaha RX-V757 amp, Wharfedale Diamond 9.CS centre Speaker, 9.6 L & R & 7.1 sides and a welling SB12 subwoofer

The AMP will be replaced in 12-24 months time for another Yamaha AMP with ATMOS

I have 3 options I would like advice on

1) I had been looking at replaceing the 7.1's with 'Bipole' speakers but after reading other forums I am now thinking of Direct ( Wharfedale Diamond 9.1's as they will match other 3 speakers)?

2) Sell centre speker, use 9.6's in another room and have all 5 speakers as Wharfedale 9.1's, again based on other forums where having 3 LCR's the same (have gone for bookshelf speakers as no room for centre to be a tower speaker and would like the speakers mounted on the wall.

3) same as option '2' but retain the centre speaker and have 9.1's as L&R Fronts and sides

I hope this makes sence
