Thanks for all the info
Upstairs in my living room I do have my TV backlit. Downstairs, I'm really just looking for something unobtrusive that I can dim down. I only have one wall to put lights on (the wall with the couch), and it's cinderblock. So really, my only good option is lights in the ceiling.
I'll look into the "Alzak" cans. My local big-boxes don't carry anything like that, so I'll continue looking around.
Thanks!
