This is what I have, 7.2 surround sound but my Onkyo died, I replaced it with a Denon avr-x3700h which can run more channels.
The problem I have is the wiring is all set up for 7.2 and is all in wall and the walls have had 3 coats of paint, I don't want to be channeling more speaker cables the O/H would throttle me.
Do I look at 2 ceiling speakers and if so will this enable atmos, or 2 floorstanders with upwards firing tops, or add an amp and go for both?
I want a kick ass system but haven't really the cash right now, would their be a way of upgrading the 7.2 system with the denon avr-x3700h by adding something that won't cost alot.
I know alot may be a subjective amount, but a couple of hundred might be OK in the next month or I could put something on my Christmas list.
Remember no wires, what can you guys suggest to me please.
Or could I place a speaker behind the projector so make an 8.2 surround as the speaker wire wouldn't be seen. But then it can do 9.2 without an amp suggest away folks.
And many thanks for reading me ramble.
