A bit pricey per unit for sides but worth it if they enhance the immersion experience.

Nice clean looking installation!  I am a fan of the in ceiling vs sidewall when possible.  Good luck!

OBG-Are these a new "channel", or did you replace something?

Replaced the Energy RVSS side surround speakers.    Slowly want to eliminate speakers handing from walls.  May consider going to 5.1 instead of the current 7.1  (not counting the front height and wide speakers).

I assume that big Plat IVs will be staying right where they are, with the HT fronts and center Polk in-walls, inside the distance between the Plats?
