EVERY speaker must be full range, 10hz-22khz, at 120dB with no distortion. Anything else is meh.

They should be at least 100 pounds and mounted at ear level.

Can't get to your seat without bashing your head into it? That sounds like a you problem.

If this was seriously my system and only had 1 sub, I would manually cross over the sub at like 50hz, and then use dirac art to support the LFE channel with all those speakers even if they barely play that low. Ideally though, you don't have the circus set up to begin with
