Atmos speakers are not required. I already have the atmos receiver. But I wonder if the side and rear channels can be combined in the processing by the receiver? If both signals through processing, and not cabling, can be rerouted through other channels.
NO Side Speakers in an atmos system?
Hey guys I hope you can answer this.
I am looking to build a theater and have zero place to put side speakers. I have the rears and the over heads covered plus the main front three and sub. However my question is this, does my Pre/pro (marantz 8802a) take the signals normally sent to the side channels and send them to the back speakers if there are no side speakers? I would hate to lose two important channels that seem more important than the rest.
Part two of this question depending on the answer from the first.
Should I use the rear speakers as side speakers? Meaning, that I have the rear speakers hooked up to the side speaker terminals of the pre?
Thanks for your help.
