Will I notice the difference upgrading from Diamond 9.1s in my home theatre?

Are you sure that room looks massive looks bigger than 53m3

Yep, I used a laser measure, and split the room in to sections to try and account for the sloped ceiling!

SVS Sub is arriving today, looking forward to it

 

[Dominic-Toretto]

So, the SVS PB1000 Pro arrived today, It took a little while to get configured, I read through the relevant parts of the AVS Subwoofer setup guide, aiming for a Auddysey trim level of -11.5, I ended up with -10.5, of which I boosted to -5.5. Speakers set to small, crossover 80hz, LFE Only, 120hz. I don't think I missed anything. Anyhow, this subwoofer sounds INSANE. This is the best upgrade I have done to my HT in a long time, just wow, it sounds incredible and you can feel the vibrations. I now understand what people were getting at when saying I was missing the LFE! Super happy, here is a picture of it in the theatre. The system as a whole sounds great, but the sub has stolen the show for me.

Have you found out if the wharfedale surround speakers are bipole or dipole?

Nope, people are saying that those surround speakers are no good for atmos as you want direct sound not diffused.

I'm tempted to put some 4.2s at the back too. The other part of me thinks just put some low profile wall mountable speakwrs. Not sure which speakers I would go for though

 

[Dominic-Toretto]

If you have chance of testing regular speakers, bipole/tripole in a atmos system it's worth it. I'm aware of the Dolby spec but it's not a law punishable by death, if the room or personal preference is diffused even in a atmos system, it's yours to do what you wish.

Yeah that's fair enough, valid points. Are there any reccomendations you have outside of the 4s and 4.2? The 4s look nice for sure but £1000 a pair lol..... any nice wall mount units that would be a good match for my existing system?
