Reading this thread with great interest, have done exactly the same with the "in ceiling wiring" and my ceiling placement is almost identical to Viper's.Finding the advice very useful, my room is slightly different, where you doorway is located I have a large bay window so my rear surrounds are further apart but a similar height,I cannot accommodate side surrounds due to the position of the living room doorway.
Main mlp is approx. 2 feet from the rear wall so had concluded that a .4 option was out due to lack of room behind the sofa ( impossible to move further into the room due to main door position) but I like the sound of using the rear positioned in ceiling speakers as TM and the front in ceiling pair as FH.
Have a new Marantz 7702 mk11 still in it's box waiting to get installed and hooked up to my Bryston 9Bsst2 (5 channel) just need speakers and added amplification, will probably go Monitor Audio for in ceilings to try and match my current MA GS based system.....getting there slowly, hopefully the wait will be worth it.....thanks for some very useful ideas guy's..
