I have used my M2's as front wide when i had my denon receiver as my main processor using PLiiz and i liked the added ambiance they provided. When i got my Emotiva processor it only had PLiix so no front wide or height so moved my M2's to the rear and tbh it really wasnt worth the effort to run the wires which i hit inside quarter round i ripped a slot into, and mounting them on the ceiling. Emo is coming out with ATMOS add on but im not sure i really care much about it given the abilities of the QS8's which i mounted up high and just forward of where i sit. For most movies there really isnt that much height information , though i feel the big advantage of ATMOS is the object based audio vs the actual ceiling speakers.
