Very nice setup. I'm a grills on guy because I feel it presents a cleaner look. But, you should disregard what any of us say and do what pleases YOU. You could always tilt the side and rear surrounds down a little. That would open up the top woofers some. Give it a try and go with whatever sounds best to you.
