My new house will have a fireplace in the center of the wall down low and a recess for my 52 inch flat screen above it. Then on both sides of that there will be built in cabinets down low with bookshelves above. And then there are hallways on both sides of the bookshelves so there's really no room for in wall speakers so to speak. I could go with some speakers on the bookshelves but I really liked the idea of everything being blended into the room as much as possible. I had a cheap surround system in my other house with speakers hanging in the corners and hated it. I told myself on the next go around, I would build it in the house. I'm open to suggestions though, and I'll go by the house at lunch and see if there is any room for speakers anywhere on the walls. I will take a picture of the framing in the wall if someone could post it for me.
Thank you again!
