Yeah, the forum auto-sizes them. Then again, it also rotated my vertical ones.
Two others thing about Atmos and DTS:X
Now that Atmos has been humming along for home users for about a year, there is a lot more understanding of what sounds good, etc. Everyone who isn't trying to sell you Atmos Enabled speakers agrees that overhead speakers are the best option (as expected) for immersive sound. The reflected sound from Atmos Enabled speakers, while pretty good, is actually much more limiting as too high of a ceiling and the reflections are too dispersed, too low and they aren't reflected to the seating area. In an ideal situation, the reflected Atmos Enabled sound gets you about "75% there" to what overhead speakers can do. If you have a ceiling between 8 feet and 14 feet, and don't want overhead speakers, you will never get that last 25%, but that might be OK for you.
The other big thing was that having overhead (and "surround") speakers that can be set to about 60Hz. Studios have started to mix in a lot of "lower frequency energy" into the side/rear/overhead speakers for Atmos mixed (and it is expected for DTS:X as well).
This is something that the Atmos Enabled speaker manufacturers, or at least a couple of them, admit is going to be part of a future Atmos "certification" program. That means that the tiny reflective speakers that they currently use in Atmos Enabled speakers will become obsolete at some point and they will have to add larger speaker components at some point to meet the new spec, but don't expect it to be loudly announced as Dolby certainly doesn't want to have any negative "press" as they are still working on getting Atmos into more and more homes.
