There is no dilemma sounds like your bored
A couple of things with regards to advice, check before you hit "post reply" so that you're not posting the same pictures twice which you're doing a lot of lately.
The inordinate amount of time you spend posting asking variations of the same questions and posting the same pictures would be better served doing something constructive.
Stay on topic, a lot of times you start a thread someone provides you with a concise answer and you somehow find a way to ask a different question not related to the initial topic.

I'm 
thinking your "rear" speaker should be something in a full-range design. Thus ensuring the listening zone is filled or full.

Any tips / advice for a 7.1 system? Yep - stop using garbage speakers in it.
the two bookshelves then are only ones closer to fulll range . The surround speaker dropped off at 100hz no bass what so ever .:I'm
The Sony ”go lower bass then the klipsch two woofers...
The bipolar are what I’m using right now ..

@ultumax - you will find in most cases, the rear surround channels are only for 'fill' - in other words, mainly for effects / echoes / bullets whizzing around etc so there is very little bass present at all. I wouldn't worry about it too much - I have a 5.1 setup with three-way towers up front, a decent centre channel speaker under the TV, a decent Wharfdale sub (Powercube 12) behind the TV and two small two-way speakers as rear surround. The rears have little bass output if you listen to them on their own in a stereo setup, but in 5.1 with all the other sound and sub, they do the job just fine. People have often commented how good my setup sounds and trust me, it's nothing uber sophisticated or expensive.

By the way - this thread should really be in the Home Theatre and Video section.
Oh my bad I thought it was based on speakers .
So rears do not need ? To be full rangers . My side surrounds are pioneer Andrew Jones . Crossed over at 80hz I think so sub does all the hard work .
Would these more powerful speakers be better then the bipolar or no ???I'm
Which one and klipsch icon are rear ported is these bad? For using against a wall ?? Shelf

Just try them all and use what sounds best to you. This is all subjective, there's no right or wrong. What ever you like the sound of, is the best speaker for your needs.

As a general rule of thumb, you don't want to put rear-ported speakers up against a wall. The owner's manual for the Klipsch (assuming you have one) should recommend a minimum distance from a wall.
Can't comment on those Sony vs Klipsch as to which one is better, but in my experience as a Klipsch owner (KG 3.2 in the past, bookshelf R-15M in the present), the Klipsch 'house sound' is not always easy to match up with another brand (exceptions exist, of course).
The Sony speaks go with a rack system, they're junk, use the Klipsch.
Have a garage sale, sell the junk you've been posting and use the proceeds toward something worthwhile.

We know that as you already attached the same pictures in your initial post. Again why do you keep reposting the same pictures?
