I recently completed an upgrade to all Klipsch RP speakers. 5.2.4 setup:
Front L/R Klipsch RP-160M
Center Klipsch RP-450C
Surrounds Klipsch RP-150M
Atmos Klipsch RP-140SA x 4 (front up-firing, rear heights)
Sub SVS PC12-Plus x 2
My placement option for surrounds is limited due to room, aesthetics, WAF. They are closer in position to rear surrounds than side surrounds. See pic. Hard to tell distances but they are about 7 feet behind MLP with RS about 3 feet off to the side where LS is further, more like 6 feet to side. Before purchasing I was debating about RP-150M vs RP-240S. I asked Klipsch support and they told me due to the distance surrounds are placed the bipoles would be too diffuse and the monopoles would work better toed in towards MLP as dispersion at that distance will be good enough. I have no complaints regarding the sound as is. Atmos demos sound fantastic. Asthetically these are nicer given the cherry finish option. My wife does not like "black stuff" in our living room. I'm now second guessing and wondering if I would have been better off with the bipoles mostly due to the fact that they are not really placed in a side surround position. The bipoles would just be placed on the same stands that RP-150Ms are on. The other thought I had is that monopoles may be better in an Atmos setup for more precise object placement. Any thoughts on keeping it how it is vs swapping for the RP-240s?
