I had actually pictured doing away with the back plate and the triangular extensions on the back panel, so it would just be a tall, rectagular box. Mounting to the studs sounds like fun, though, once I get the positioning perfect...my wife would love it! Help maintain postion and rigidity. Judging by the cost of components, I see myself going with something from the Theater or Stage series, not the Pro, though.
Thanks,again
