If you are doing whole house audio, give these speakers a listen. Most other speakers mounted in the wall or in the ceiling are very bright and the sound it too "forward" - overly bright. These MartinLogan speakers have a sound that is different from their competition. Their sound is very well rounded and is much richer than the other mounted speakers I listened to - namely Speakercraft. I bought six of the hilos20's and am more than satisfied. But don't take my word, go and listen at your local high end audio dealer and do a comparison like I did. No personal recommendation can substitute for your own ears.
Each speaker has 4 binding posts if you want stereo sound through one speaker. I have two of my six set up in this fashion. The other 4 are paired up in the traditional left/right stereo channel set up. I am really satisfied with the sound of the single speaker setup for my study and sewing room - both in the 10 X 14 foot range. I used two speakers for the larger kitchen and master bedroom areas.
The build of the speaker and the attention to detail are also impressive. Plus, there is a 5 year warranty you get if you send in the registration cards.
