I’m in search of four Atmos speakers to ceiling mount and match with my VR950’s. …. I’d like to hear budget options as well as non-budget options.
Welcome Yovwmon,
I wouldn't be concerned at all about missing out on the Boston inceiling...tonal matching is not going to be very important for Atmos playback. It's sound effects...more than anything you do want good dispersion and good spl. If the ceiling is higher than 8', I would go with 8" speakers vs 6".
Budget...Polk RC80i...4 will cost you $600.00...I use these in my 5.2.4 system, I'm pleased. The RSL speaker is a good option also...
Non budget...I use some Noble Fidelity 8" speakers in my whole house system...amazing performance for inceiling...these were $800 a pr....I've heard others such as Paradigm, B&W, Triad that are as good or better, but I don't think I would use any of them for Atmos.
