Suggestions for In wall speakers?


I have searched old threads and cannot find postings regarding any of the following 'in wall' speakers.

Vandersteen VSM-1, B&W Signature 7NT, KEF Ci Reference 2000, and PSB CustomSound M6X6.1. I realize the Vandersteen is on wall, but I plan to cut away sufficient wall area to hide it, if chosen. The others are in wall designs and appeal to me for one reason or another. Any of you compared one of these to any other on my list?

Comments concerning tonal balance, dynamics and the ability to blend would be greatly appreciated. I realize this is not as ideal as floor standing models, but would still like the best this category has to offer.

For a guy that owns Vandersteen, that is a very strong recommendation. I will add them to my list. I plan to buy two pair of HT speakers, one for side walls and for rear. The new Dolby EX will take advantage of this configuration, so I would like to be ready for the future in one upgrade.

Did you audition the Powerpoint against the Vandersteens, or did you rule out the Vandys due to space and not make the comparison?
