It certainly seems Dolby had monopoles in mind when creating Atmos, with the potential for more precise placement of the audio objects, but I'm still looking forward to reading impressions of experimentation with alternate setups.
However, if you're starting from scratch and are gearing your system toward object-based home theater applications, I'd probably go M22s all-around, wait a little bit to see if they update the in-ceiling speakers at all, and put the money saved from the LFR1100s toward an EP800 or two, assuming you don't have your subwoofer situation settled. How would the rest of you do it?
