Will the ceiling firing speakers work with any type of sound setup ie: 5.1,7.1 etc. or will they only fire when Dolby Atmos is detected? null

There is mixing happening within the unit.  So even playing 2 channel audio the upfiring speakers will output audio.

I do believe they will still fire off the downsampled stereo.  The only speakers that stop firing are the side speakers if you add a pair of rear channel speakers to the surround setup.

When there’s no Dolby Atmos content, like stereo or 5.1, Bose TrueSpace™ technology takes over for the vertical experience, remixing signals to add “height” without adding a ceiling speaker, creating the same immersive sound experience.
