[QUOTE="user 1447, post: 936514, member: 1447"] it depends - if you are planning Atmos or not - with Atmos - you want height speakers on the ceiling so then the bookshelves as rears or specific rear speakers are better BUT in saying that i have heard in-ceiling speakers work fine as rears because they increase the distance between the listener and the speaker - so it creates a better surround atmosphere and more openness in the sound quality when set up and adjusted correctly - but just in case you do eventually want Atmos i would still want to go bookshelves initial sound quality should not be your concern here because either way can sound just as good as mentioned above if you adjust it all correctly - decide on your long term plans here and act accordingly .... just my 2c on the matter [/QUOTE]
