I'm a sucker for internet direct and I had never even considered ID for speakers. Will research.
Many people have goood things to say about the RSL C34E in-ceiling for Atmos - I have not listened to them and cannot offer an opinion.
Good ID companies to check out:
1. Ascend Acoustics (this is where all of my HT speakers came from)
2. RBH (formerly Emptek)
3. Aperion
4. SVS (mostly known for subwoofers, but their prime speakers are a good value especially if you get a warehouse deal)
5. Axiom
6. Elac (Andrew Jones left Pioneer to make these)
7. Hsu (again, primarily a subwoofer company, but do make decent high output speakers)
8. KEF - not ID, but their concentric drivers are pretty great. I have a pair of LS50s I really like
I would recommend picking out a subwoofer first. It is the most impotant part and will make or break your system. You need to decide if you want sealed or ported and what size you'll need to pressurize your room.
