Ignoring price, which setup would you pick?
Option 1: Synthesis JBL Pro M2 with additional ceiling speakers.
Option 2: Seaton Sound Catalyst 8C or 12C for LCR, side surrounds, and back surrounds. New/updated Seaton Sound Spark for ceiling speakers. 2 x Seaton Sound SubMersive HPi+ + 2 x Seaton Sound SubMersive HP-Slave. Trinnov Altitude32 as a preamp/processor.
Another thing to ignore: Don't worry about the fact that the JBL setup is 9.4 and the Seaton Sound setup is a 7.4.x. The goal here is to get an idea of which setup will provide the "better" sound for movies and music and the setup configuration/arrangement can be decided on later.
