A: Although the AV Receiver is packed with the latest audio and visual features I would not recommend for the size of space you are describing. The receiver provides 70 watts per channel to 7.1 surround speakers rated at 6 ohms. If you have the more common 8 ohms speakers it's rated at 50 watts per surround sound speakers. In order to enjoy and appreciate the louder surround sound effects in a home theater setting of a space that size without struggling to hear the sound and maxing the volume continuously I would recommend at least two to three times the output of this receiver..and of course the larger the space the larger the speakers will need to be rated for...that's just my opinion.
A: Yes it offers two zones. Should be a 2.0 setup for the second zone and then your zone 1 will simply be a 5.2 at max.
A: There's a very minor difference when it comes to Front Height, Top Front and Front Dolby channels from a native Atmos track. The Front Height and Top Height channels are based on physical location (on wall/in wall vs in ceiling) and the Front Dolby channels use sound reflection to create a height environment. All 3 speaker applications are used for Atmos and DTS:X formats. There's not one that's any "less Atmos" than the other.
