Hi all,

My first post. I was reading a lot here but haven't found all the answers. I'm moving to another place and going to install Polk in-walls there. I'm thinking about:
TC265i: left, right, center
TC65i: rear

Receiver is Yamaha RX-V765, cannot change that.
Here are the questions:
1. TC265i is chosen as a center pure because of aesthetic reasons. I guess there should be no problem mounting all three front speaker horizontally. Am I right or there is something I should think about?

2. Currently I've got Yamaha speakers 5.0 setup, NS-200 (35-35000Hz) as fronts. We're quite happy without a subwoofer, tried one a long time ago, understood that we don't need that much bass. And I'm not a audiophile at all, just like good surround sound in movies.
So do I need a subwoofer in a new setup? Will I hear any difference with current NS-200 setup?
Looking at the TC265i spec it looks like I might not need a subwoofer, but I think a lot depends on setup and walls.

3. So here is another question: will Polk performances enclosures help me a lot in regard to bass?

4. The last one. I'm planing to put receiver upstairs in a dedicated rack and wire speaker cables all the way down. The fonts and center length will be around 10m - 32ft. The rears around 14m - 45ft.
Will this work with my Yamaha and TCis?
As I read in many places there should be no problem, right? I'm worried about interference with another cables, like power, CATx, USB, HDMI.

thanks for reading!
