I have a question that may or may not be asked too often. I just purchased the VP150 and love it! I plan on buying the M80ti and the QS8's next, I can't wait. I own the Earthquake Supernova MKIV-15P subwoofer.
I live in a split-level that doesn't have a full back wall looking into the kitchen. I would like to take advantage of 6.1 surrounds. Does anyone have any ideas? I thought about using ceiling speakers, but don't know if I could find any that would match the sound of the Axiom's. The main problem is that I don't have any place to wall or ceiling mounts the drivers. Any suggestions or help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom

Mount a QS8 on the rear ceiling. It's dispursive quantities should compensate for the ceiling mountings.

Tom, also consider trying it the other way around. Put the rear surround(behind you, of course)near floor level and on its back firing off the ceiling. If it's rear ported(e.g. an M2)have it supported so that the port has at least a few inches of breathing room.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.
