Essentially I looked at proven architectural design from mfg like paradigm, PSB, Focal and MA....looking at the specs and sensitivity of each design....for surround or moreso Atmos implementation....I don't think you'd not find a suitable design for this application...from any of the listed above...with this hobby we often obsess over trivial things.
