Adding Atmos channels to an RTiA 7 channel setup
Been looking at Polk options for 4 ceiling channels for an atoms set-up.
I've kicked around the idea of adding Atrium6's on-ceiling...but am concerned that they won't blend well with my RTiA's.
Second thought is the 80 FX RT or the 80 FX LS....but not super excited about introducing more sonic bleed into the room above by installing in-ceiling speakers. Could potentially install some 3-pound or 6-pound acoustic board material round the speakers (in ceiling cavity) to help dampen, but not sure how that would affect performance.
If I go in-ceiling...the 80 FX LS has an interesting diffuse/focused switch that can help narrow the sound field (which might be helpful, post-installation, to tweak the sound and dial it in). The RT doesn't offer that. But, I'm concerned the 80 FX LS won't blend as well with the my seven RTiA channels.
Anyone have any experience with these products?

Why bother.Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."
