Polk TCis & Yamaha RX-V765 HT setup

[szz743]

Hi all,

My first post. I was reading a lot here but haven't found all the answers. I'm moving to another place and going to install Polk in-walls there. I'm thinking about:
TC265i: left, right, center
TC65i: rear

Receiver is Yamaha RX-V765, cannot change that.
Here are the questions:
1. TC265i is chosen as a center pure because of aesthetic reasons. I guess there should be no problem mounting all three front speaker horizontally. Am I right or there is something I should think about?

2. Currently I've got Yamaha speakers 5.0 setup, NS-200 (35-35000Hz) as fronts. We're quite happy without a subwoofer, tried one a long time ago, understood that we don't need that much bass. And I'm not a audiophile at all, just like good surround sound in movies.
So do I need a subwoofer in a new setup? Will I hear any difference with current NS-200 setup?
Looking at the TC265i spec it looks like I might not need a subwoofer, but I think a lot depends on setup and walls.

3. So here is another question: will Polk performances enclosures help me a lot in regard to bass?

4. The last one. I'm planing to put receiver upstairs in a dedicated rack and wire speaker cables all the way down. The fonts and center length will be around 10m - 32ft. The rears around 14m - 45ft.
Will this work with my Yamaha and TCis?
As I read in many places there should be no problem, right? I'm worried about interference with another cables, like power, CATx, USB, HDMI.

thanks for reading!

Hi again,

Can anybody at least tell me if I need a subwoofer in case I install TC265i and performance enclosures? How much bass will I get? How those 30Hz written is spec are real?

thanks!

I have the same speakers. I use a velodyne dls subwoofer. Sounds great
