300’s or Fives as rears?

Hey all, had some home repairs requiring drywall work and decided to wall off our living room. It’s a 13x26’ x 10’ ceiling room with a TV on one end and a bar on the other.

I had a pair of Fives in the living room before and wondering if I should do a home theater setup using them instead of 300’s since I have them.

I have an Arc/300/sub setup in the family room and do love how it sounds for movies and music.

Or should I mess with the sequencer app and try and use them as front L/R with an Arc?

Or place them in the bar end for music or a softer extended surround? (I do this in my kitchen with Moves today.
