Speakers

[#1]

I am looking to get some speakers to mount in-wall for my family room.  My house is pre-wired to allow 2 rear speakers and 2 front speakers in the ceiling.  I figure I will put the sub-woofer below the TV in the cabinet, and the center channel above the TV. I am not particularly interested in getting the best sound, just something that is reasonable.  I have used my TV speakers for the last 5 years so at this point any improvement is good.  I already have a receiver (mid range Yamaha unit) from a previous sound system, that has a separate Dolby digital unit. -Adam

If I were you, I would give a listen to the new in-wall speakers from Joseph Audio.  They're not gonna break the bank, but you really should give them a demo, because good sound will really enhance your theater experience.  Besides, you own your house, why not buy at least "decent" in-wall speakers?

I know that MusicLovers Audio in Berkeley has Joseph Audio in-walls in one of their demo rooms.  Good luck.
