I have listened to the B&W in-walls, and they don't sound nearly as good as a nicely setup pair of 805s. I have not listened to any other in-walls.
The technical limitations on an in-wall seem almost insurmountable (by definition must be placed "against the wall", can't be wider than stud spacing, very little room for depth of cabinet or cone movement).
Still I'm sure some sound better than others. I will be curious to read your reviews of what you hear, please post. I will also be curious whether the high-quality amplification you described makes a difference in the sound of these speakers (since they are normally driven with low-to-mid-fi components).
