Surround Sound Speaker Recommendations


Hi!

I have a request please. I have moved into my first home and I have a living room with vaulted ceilings. A picture of the room is here:

I would like to install/mount small surround sound speakers in the ceiling or on the wood beams. Currently I have a Harman Kardan AVR 510 reciever and have all Klipsch speakers. I plan on moving this system to the basement and upgrading to a 7.1 system upstairs in the vaulted cieling room. I also have many DVD-audio disc that I enjoy immensley. I would like suggestions on what kind of speakers I should buy. I am willing to pay around 6-700 bucks, plus brackets and wiring. Are there any surround sound satellite speaker systems that have a frequency range that can truly accomodate the range of DVD-Audio?

if you don't mind please reply to:

I thank you in advance

If your interest is music you will not realize the potential of multichannel unless your surround and center speakers are as good as the front speakers, and ideally the same. For movies you can get by with something inexpensive.

IMHO, No.

If I were you, I would focus the new living room space on HT only. And make the basement more for music. I can't imagine the nightmare of trying to get speaker placement up on/in the ceiling correct.

Good luck.
