I like all the kid stuff - one of our rooms looks exactly the same way. I think the quadrupole helps to have more dispersion for the surround effect. I am not sure how strong of an effect this is - without having done the proper A vs B comparo. Lots of surrround systems use "basic" two channel speakers (like the M22 or M3) for all the satellites. My guess is that using the M22 would be fine. You can always return them if it sounds like crap (although highly unlikely) and get the QS8.

Side question: What type of speaker wire are you running? It looks like it is behind the wall. Is it CL-2 or standard? Just curious as I go to set my rear speakers up.
