In Walls

Hi

My wife is getting tired of the AV Equipment in our living room. As I have other listening areas in my house, I can't argue to much. Thinking of changing my
floor standers in this room (Silverline Panatellas with matching Silverline Center and Surrounds) to some in walls. I haven't listened to in walls for many years, but some of the reviews I've seen suggest they have come up in the world.
Budget would be between 3-5 K for a 5.0 (wife is letting me keep the sub).
I do NOT want On-Walls.
Will be driven by an Onkyo receiver that has mated will with the Silverlines.
I posted this in the Home Theater Thread, but didn't get much of a response on the speakers.

I'd normally just agree with Don_55's comment and move on but I happen to own a pair of Solus/Clements DR-ir8 "in-wall" speakers and I have to admit, they sound great.

They're designed to mount in your wall between the studs and use the entire area between the studs as an infinite baffle. With 90db efficiency and an 8 Ohm load, they're very easy to drive.

Phil Clements has been designing speakers since 1976 and is one of the few guys still around who offers great products at very reasonable prices. I'm still fond of his old RT-7 floor standers which used ribbons and transmission line loading.

Do yourself a favor and check him out.
