Satellite speakers for Atmos

[neogen]

Can I use satellite speakers as Atmos speakers?

A little background: I currently have Taga 606 SE 5.1 (Two front tower + two rear bookshelf speakers + center)

I have some old Yamaha satellite speakers (Part of NSP110 Package). Their specs are:

• Drivers - Dual 5cm Full-Range
• Input Power - 100W/30W
• Sensitivity - 86dB/2.83 V/1m
• Impedance - 6 Ohms

Will these satellite speakers are good as Atmos speakers or should I look for something else. Plan to install them on concrete ceiling using ceiling mount

I have a single seating setup, so, should I look for 4 ATMOS speakers or 2 are good enough?

Amp that might be powering this could be either Denon X3700H or Yamaha RX-2080.. still thinking about the AVR.

Satellites will do fine for Atmos.
If ur seating is not against the backwall then try 4 atmos

Thanks.

I was looking at Taga Harmony Tos-415

These are typically wall mount outdoor speakers. Do you think these could be good as ATMOS speaker?

Avoid the outdoor PA speakers. U can get better and cheaper ones like JBL control 1 speakers which comes with a ball mount to rotate
