Thank you for the great information! Eventhough I feel that the floor standing speakers will probably be best in terms of sound, etc, I am limited to having hidden speakers given the wife approval factor. Excuse my newness on this topic, however I would like your suggestion on whether I can use the RCW-5's in the LCR as well as surrounds and perhaps 2 RCW-3's for the rear speakers (in 7.1 configuration)? I am unsure what makes a 'surround' or 'center' speaker. I looked at several brands like Atlantic Technology which makes the THX Ultra 20 in-wall system (5 speakers) with matching LCR, but specially configured Surrounds. Another vendor specifies that the center channel should not be the same as the L&R. As you can image for a newbie, I got confused rather quickly and not sure what to choose. I like Klipsch and would like to use them, provided I can achieve the desired HT in-wall 7.1 configuration. Thanks! Al

Hi, I am building a dedicated home theater (room size 17x18) and would like to consider all in-wall speakers in a 7.1 configuration. I have been looking at the RCW-5's, however I am not sure if those would work for the Center channel as well as L&R, or whether I need something else. Would you perhaps recommend a combination of RCW-3's and 5's? Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Cheers! Al
