Subwoofer integration, to be sure. It's a process I'm feeling my way through, gradually. Quite frankly, I find the prospect daunting. Currently using single sub. no correction for now. Used crossover of 40 Hz from the mains, and 120Hz for the LFE channel, as a first stab at LFE+mains.
The built-in AVR automated correction is Audyssy (Denon x3600h). Just trying to understand capabilities and limitations of the individual components themselves, before adding layers of complexity, and maybe changing some things out. From what I have so far, I'm thinking the extra output from each main would be an improvement, and allow the use of 705 for height. I'm OK if the improvement in 708 over 705 is marginal and not dramatic, but as you point out, 7dB is nothing to sneeze at. Now that I think about it, for just a little less $ per channel, I could have a sub on each of LCR for true full range, and maybe stick one or two at the back of the room for mode control. That'd take up a lot of space, though.
My local dealer who is handling the room remodel wants to put in Revel in-ceiling for the Atmos heights. Guess I could go with that and stick with the 705's.
