that is for 3d by the way.... but not sure ... anyone ?


there are no hard upper limits. the absolute lower limit is (N+1)².

in horizontal layouts, i find 8 too much for first order, and 12 too much for third order. the issue is that additional speakers will create a more prominent phasing pattern. which might not be an issue if the audience is seated, but for walk-around environments, it's something to keep in mind.

another (useless) datapoint: two rings of 18 and five in the ceiling is too much for third order periphonic :-D
