Anyone have any experience with in-wall speakers?


I am building a home office and would love to not give up space for speakers such as JM Lab MIni or Micro Utopias on stands. Does anyone have any experience with quality in-wall speakers? I don't need the last word in audiophile quality for the office. I still have my listening system in our living room but would love to be able to have a Rowland, Plinius, or Viva integrated amp for the office driving something that might sound as good as B&W 805 speakers. I know B&W makes an in-wall speaker and I am going to check that out, but are there any others? And anyone with good or bad experiences?

I have heard good things about Thiel Powerpoints (on-wall) and Thiel Powerplanes (in-wall). Also, There are some great little speakers that are meant to be used with a computer. Monsoon makes a set-up that includes a pair of desk-top planar monitors and a matching subwoofer. Also, Apple sounsticks and complimentary subwoofer also sound excellent.

Don't get me wrong, these do not compare with a hi-end system, but they are great for use with a computer, and would not require a whole system of components. Good Luck,
