It's true in math AND audio. How many Klipsch speakers can you have? "All of them" appears to be the correct answer. I calibrated subwoofer #2 over the weekend using the automated Denon Audyssey XT32 setup routine. So, the modified full complement is: front: RP280, Surround Side: R-610F, Surround Rear: R-26F, Center: RP-440C, (Front) Subwoofer: R-112SW, (Rear) Subwoofer: R-10SWi (wireless).
The Denon 6300H will do 11.2, so there's still room for more. The room layout isn't ideal for a Dolby Atmos setup, but I could bi-amp the front and add a second pair of RP280's...

I was going to ask if you were going for an Atmos setup. I'm eyeballing a pair of SVS PB-16 Ultra for my next system.
What are your thoughts on dual subs vs just having 1?

Honestly? For my room, it's overkill. Especially since the primary sub is powerful. It just happens that I have a corner in the back that really couldn't be used for much, so I'm not giving up any space to do it. It's subtle, but I also like that not all of the low end is coming at me head-on. Sure, bass is "non-directional", but you can tell a difference and it seems to fill out the room a little more.
An Atmos setup would be cool, but I don't want to go to the trouble to run additional in-wall wiring. My room is small, too, so 7.2 is plenty. It's still tempting to use a couple of spare channels and bi-amp the front. More for 2-channel audio than anything else...
