I have inwalls for my mains and surrounds, a CS400i center, and a brand new SVS sub. There is no place to install a Center Surround Speaker in the wall in line with the other surround speakers, due to large windows in that wall. However I could install an RC8i or LC8i in the ceiling over the listening area or back near the wall that holds the inwalls. This is a range of only about 2 feet. What do you think about this arrangement?
Mains: Polk RC65i In-walls
Center: Polk CS400i atop TV
Sub: SVS pb12nsd/2
Surrounds: Polk RC55i In-walls
Receiver: Onkyo TX-SR600

    With that arrangement, I'd pass on 6.1. Enjoy the 5.1 with your new sub!
