I had to relocate for work & leave my home cinema room behind & after 15 long years I’ve only just managed to finally settle somewhere with a spare room to rebuild it. I’ve not really kept up with current AV technology during this time as it just reminded me of what I was missing out on so I’m fairly out of touch with things now (I did try the mini speakers in the living room thing but but wish I hadn't bothered to be honest).
I finally admitted my kit like the Amp & PJ etc were all antiques a few years ago & sold them off for the few quid they were then worth but I held onto my B&W DM 600 series speakers, which I was hoping to use again to save a bit money unless anyone thinks speakers have moved on enough to justify the expense of buying new?
I have in storage: LCR600 S3 centre speaker, DM602 S3 pair side speakers, DM600 S3 pair rear speakers & a ASW650 sub.
Obviously I've heard of this Atmos malarky so my questions are:
1) would it be worth trying Atmos in a small loft conversion measuring aprox 5.6 metres wide by 5 metres long with a 32 degree sloped ceiling which is 2.2 metre high in the centre? (I’ll try to attach a back of a fag packet style sketch of the room dimensions, I’ve put on screen & speakers for scale but I really haven’t thought about positions etc yet)
2) If I do go for Atmos should I keep my old speakers, what other speakers/how many would you recommend I get for the ceiling?
3) Would it be worth doubling up the Sub in such a small room if I happen to see another one on eBay for a decent price?
Cheers
