Ok ok. ![](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y174/newfmp3/20141206_211920_zpsuhpqtdhv.jpg) Too dark now for decent shot... That's the way its supposed to be innit? Dark.

I think you all should make 15 degree or 30 degree angle to them? That would be perfect for front heights. Please do this!!!

They would be even better with aim'able tweeters. I would not doubt to see an updated version of them at some point....then I'll regret getting mine so early. I am lucky that my mlp is pretty much right where it needs to be so my 4 ceiling speakers should work out fine without aiming tweeters for Atmos. I hope. I ideally wanted the two speakers further apart. But obstacles prevented that.
I gotta say, after spending some time listening to them, you could totally use these as a nice 2 channel setup for easy listening and just a small sub in the corner of the room.

Do you think a system containing only in ceilings (at proper locations, heights and orientations) would work? It would be less than $10,000 for 17 pair.

I find any overhead work to be very trying on the patience. Nice work!

I just realized I hadn't posted my finished, painted M3s. Here you go. Here's a panoramic of the on walls and in ceiling setup before the room was finished. It's so dark in there now photos don't show the ceiling very well (which is the point). ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-t-V60SVmuio/VIWkCZ2QjbI/AAAAAAAACVc/OKiOnC7M7GI/s640/IMG_0104.JPG)

Nice Job. That's how you mount Atmos speakers. My ceiling did not permit it.
Brwsaw: Not sure my little room with two little speakers makes me qualified to answer that question. I can't see why you couldn't do it, maybe someone else could chime in. I'd imagine proper in/or on walls would sound superior if you are talking for a surround system?

Full Atmos layout with matching speakers. 34 M80HP's won't fit.
That's supposed to be funny.

I wouldn't hesitate to use these for all the surrounds/heights/ceiling in a theater setup. I personally want full range, multiple driver, big cabinet speakers for my front LCR. If only for 2.1 and 2.0 music, and a center to match the fronts. I don't think a single in ceiling speaker would make a great center channel.

Please don't try to put M80's on the ceiling.
