If you were free to use different speakers, I would highly recommend the Altec/Western Electric 755 or 755A. These are designed for a box little bigger than the speaker itself and should fit easily, with box, in your walls. They will give you everything but deep bass which you should get from a larger subwoofer anyhow. Boxed or not I guarantee you will like the sound. What does my guarantee mean? It means that I will gladly take them off your hands at a price I can afford....which, to be honest is not much. The 755 is the speaker that, along with its air-spring bass woofer, revolutionized audio in the mid '50's in the AR -1 bookshelf speaker system.
