in Speakers
If so what kind of speakers do you use and why do you like them?

    I use 8" in-wall and do like them. They add a bit of spaciousness near my TV, since it is mounted kind of high. However, I could easily live without them. They are not game changers.

    When I got my Yamaha it had this option so I bought someTSi100's for the front heights. It was ok but I have since taken them down in favor of a straight 5.1 system.

    I have some little T15's that were not in use for anything so I wired them up. I have the choice of the presence or rears on the AVR. I cant see a way to run them all at once so I just leave the rears on instead. I'd rather have rears.

    My Yamaha 663 avr only lets me either have the ability for surround backs or_ front presence ,height speakers, not both. I just decided to stick with surround backs too. I know there are some here who use the front height speakers and like them. I suppose in order to be able to run both SB and FH speakers I'd have to get a 9.1 channel or more avr or pre/pro.

    I thought about the 2040 9.2 but I got an amp for the fronts instead.
