I have been using Polk Fix A4 as my Surrounds and Rear Surrounds in bipole mode.
The surround L&R are mounted on wall about 3 feet higher that MLP ear level and about 9 feet away. My Room dimension is 20 X 18
They are now being driven by Emotiva XPA5.
Before adding XPA 5, I was satisfied with the diffused kind of effects from these bipole surrounds but now instead of Bipoles this time I want to go for something directional so may be suitable bookshelves mounted on brackets like Klipsch (not sure of what would be suitable) or already angled like SVS Prime Elevation. Specially now when I have in-ceiling atmos channels as well, I could take that risk of going directional sound for surrounds without overpowering rear sound stage as against fronts.
Please share your suggestions considering that I can not change positioning of surround L & R, front LCR are Klipsch and these surrounds are going to be 9 feet away from MLP
Just to mention, the problem with my existing surrounds is either they are too diffused or too silent to give effect of the scenes when surrounds need to be engaged more heavily.
