amer, I ilke to work with names, so I took a lok at your profile. I notice that you have M50s as surrounds right now. Is there something wrong with having them in the mix at the back of that rather impressively large room? Can you keep them and supplement with the QS8s?

I'm thinking, again based on filling that auditorium with audio, that the QS8s are the right way to go. If you don't want to go with all of them at once, is there a possibility of picking them off a set at a time and keeping the M50s in the rotation until you are done. I'm not a techie kind of guy, but my addled logic tells me the QS4s might need to sweat a bit to fill that large void.

Will you be able to stand in the middle of the room and actually see all of the speakers? I'm really hoping that you have a rear projector hitting a drive-in sized screen and theater seating for 120 people. That room is big enough to have time zones and seasons. As chess said - you must show some pictures.
