Default Retro-fit for Dolby Atmos

I am looking for suggestions on what speakers (top front and top back) to complement my current system (capability of 9.2 but with the current AV amp I can only use 7.2). I will also need to change the AV amp to accommodate the top speakers to benefit from Dolby Atmos available material.

I know BGUZMAN & SOLARRDADD have ATMOS....hop over to their threads and ask, I'm sure they'd love to help you out.

If it is within your budget I would suggest these to compliment your existing B&W setup.

Thanks to all for your advice. I will need to check the type of casing I need to provide for these speakers as it is not possible to make a hole in the concrete ceiling.
