If you no room for whatever reason (and there are several) you can't have speakers in your ceiling then you will be amazed what these two little speakers sitting on top of your floor speakers can accomplish when it comes to the new Dolby Atmos system. Transformers (the latest one) really comes alive just above and in front of your head with these babies. Rain falls...winds swirl...objects suddenly come into aural focus - like a helicopter landing right in front of your face. I'm really impressed. I have the Onkyo atmos receiver and these are paired with an Infinity (large) center speaker and JBL front and rear surround in a 5.1 set up and they still deliver sound like I can't believe. Wish I could go 7.2 but I don't have the space!!!!
John Wick was great with the atmos effects. I don't understand how it all works because I'm not a techie by any stretch of the term, all I know is that it has improved my movie watching experience exponentially. I highly recommend both the Onkyo TX-NR636 receiver and these Onkyo SKH-410 Dolby Atmos Enabled speakers.
They work by bouncing the sound off your existing ceiling and not even the ductwork stretching across the middle of the room kept them from performing their task. You don't know what you're missing and admittedly there are only a few movies that take advantage of it right now but more are coming soon ( I just got Hunger Games - Mockingjay Part One and it has it - Can't Wait To See It!!). It really opens up the sound experience and by doing that the overall Movie viewing moves much closer to the theater experience!!! You won't be disappointed.

Dolby AtmosWith Dolby Atmos, sound comes alive from all directions, including overhead. The format combines a channel-based audio bed with object-oriented sound to place and move specific effects around the theater, creating a breathtakingly realistic and captivating sonic atmosphere. Sound designers can now mix audio in a 3D space, steering effects through surround channels and adding a seamless overhead dimension with discrete height channels. In commercial theaters, it supports up to 128 audio tracks and 64 unique speaker feeds. The home theater adaptation automatically scales to your surround configuration. Dolby Atmos-compatible 2014 Onkyo receivers support any layout up to 11 channels. |

Merely OK, not that good
Pros,1. Has Dolby Atmos circuitry build in to help with the surround effects.2. Decent price for Atmos speakers. I got them on sale for 92.3. Included speaker cables.4. Build quality is ok.5. It does add to the sound, but not much.6. This is the biggest pro, I didn't have to route a space in my ceiling and wires through my walls.Cons,1. Can not removes the grills.2. Kind of small.3. Aren't all that powerful.4. The height effects aren't that great and it doesn't add as much as I'd personally like.5. Doesn't take banana plugs and is wire clip only.6. The included wires aren't the best.For paying only 92 I'm not totally complaining because that's fairly inexpensive and even though these are underwhelming they're still a decent starting point. Living in a small place I'm renting I didn't want to install ceiling speakers so these are a decent alternative. If you can in my opinion you're better off going with ceiling speakers if you can and are able to install them. Next time I'll pay a bit more and get some wall mounting Klipsch speakers because they can be mounted without any routing and I'll use these Onkyos as a set for a second height channel in the back.
