Recommendations for small, wall mount speakers

I need help in finding small speakers capable of being wall mounted, i.e in a ceiling corner, for some newly renovated areas in my basement.

The areas are small, thus the need for something off the floor. One area will be a gym area, and another a game room. A third area will have a small home theater setup.

For the gym and game room, I think I will need a total of 6 speakers. They will be driven by 2 separate moderate output receivers. My budget is $1k. In-wall and in-ceiling speakers are OK.

The home theater speakers will have a budget of $500.

Thanks for your help.

Boston Acoustic VR-MX are what I finally bought after testing MANY speakers for boundary influence. You wouldn't believe how many two-ways (inc MANY surrounds designed for wall-mounting like PSB and JM Labs) sound like congested crap when pushed back onto a wall!
Finally I discovered these bipolar/direct beauties. I picked them up at BA< where I stumbled upon their design engineer, who gushed with pride when I complimented him on how well they were voiced for boundary support. He of course said he worked hard to get that 2 pi/4 pi stuff right. Kudos! $700 list, but you can get 'em around $500.
