Go with 7.2.4. It will make more sense. Are you also using the matching NAD M27 power amp for fronts LCR and surrounds?
9.2.2 vs 7.2.4: sofa against wall
I have an NAD m17 v2, and will be doing 11 channels. I was wondering if I should configure them as 7.2.4 or 9.2.2 (with two front wides)?
I know 7.2.4 is a more normal setup. The only reason I am considering something different is because my sofa is already against the back wall. Therefore all my ATMOS speakers are in front of me. In that case, does it make sense to have 4 ATMOS height speakers?
I am using a NAD m17v2. I’ve also heard it doesn’t handle 9.x.2 very well from a room correction standpoint.
I will be using 11 channels regardless, so while I know neither setup is ideal, what I want to know is which is relatively better?
Here's my floorplans:
