Considerations

• While these are excellent for height/elevation use, they are compact and not intended to be front‑channel full‑range speakers for very large rooms.
• You’ll need a Dolby Atmos‑capable AV receiver with height or overhead channels to make full use of their capabilities.
• Ensure proper positioning (height or angled) to get the best overhead effect—placement matters. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}
