What depth wall are we talking about here? If it is a 2x6 wall,
you could get some nice looking and nice sounding bookself speakers and
build a small recess into the wall for them. Or just build in a
recess for some satelitte type speakers. <br>
<br>
Alternatively, you could go all recuctio ad absurdum on her and say you
don't want any visible lights, switches, or recpetacles, either! <br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 1/17/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Richard Bronosky</b> <<a href="mailto:mythtv@bronosky.com">mythtv@bronosky.com

I'm also under the impression that "enclosure less drivers" suck.
Unfortunately in this home renovation form comes before function. I'm
going for the Wife Acceptance Factor.<div><span class="e" id="q_108db65c01fb5995_1"><br>

<pre>small cube speakers suck. Esp. Bose speakers. Properly designed small cube <br>speakers take lots of R&D resources to create and cost a lot of money, In <br>wall speakers already have gone through a lot of R&D resources just to get an
<br>enclosure less driver to sound right. Most people that are going to use in <br>wall speakers don't care to save that little bit of size so the manufacturers <br>are willing to put normal drivers in them and spend the R&D resources getting
<br>normal sized drivers to sound good in an in wall package.<br><br>Now, I've seen some in-wall's with nice quality grill plates, solid white or <br>black (which can then be painted to match any wall color). But your going to
<br>need to cut a hole in the wall and place a grill over the drivers, so I don't <br>really see what more you expect?<br><br> </pre>
