I have heard the Audioaccess in-wall speakers in several "real world" home theatre setups with mid level electronics (Denon/Pioneer/Yamaha) and they are at least as nice as the similar level of in-wall technology from "name brand" speaker offerings, probably better build quality. I think the reason they are being priced so low has more to do with the fact that they are not as "stealthy" nor as "high tech" as some the more current offerings. If you are OK with having plainish looking in-wall speakers and want to take the time to install them correctly and then try to get the EQ right they should be a terrific value.
