Suggestions for designing a new room

[GimpDaddy]

This is what I currently have to work with:
Denon AVR-3803
Klipsch RF 3 II
Klipsch RC 3.5
Klipsch RSW10

I am planning on upgrading my amp to the Denon 3808 CI. Now comes the ubiquitous "what should I do now?" question. For my surround speakers I was planning on getting the Klipsch R-5650-S In-wall surround speakers. I have no idea what I should get for the rear speakers but they will have to be mounted to the ceiling.
For a little more info, this will be in a room that is 30' x 20' with hardwood floors and pseudo cathedral ceilings (8' going to 10'6" in the center).

The question is what rear speakers should I get and should I get a different in-wall surround speaker? Any help or direction is appreciated.

Thanks
Jake

Any way to mount all the back speakers on the walls?
Does Klipsch have any speakers to cover the back channels?
That hardwood floor will be a problem for acoustics.

If you mean in-ceilings, then the CDT-365O-C should be sufficient. Or if you mean to ceiling mount a bookshelf, then the RB-51 would be good.

What is the general consensus on Speaker Crafts' Aim series of in ceiling speakers? I went to a local store and they seemed to realy like the speakers for their price point.

Thank you

Speakercraft makes nice products. As mentioned your rooms accoustics need to be addressed or it will not matter what speakers you choose. Your mains combined with the reflective surface will become quite fatigued. You may also consider a second sub or a better one for that size room.

Hmmm. The room will also have 9' x 12' area rug under a 10' fabric couch, couple of leather chairs. The windows on the south side of the room will have drapes as well to shut out the sun. The powered sub is pretty stout, though in this room it may become weak I suppose.

More to think about.
