Best "ON WALL" speakers available? Take a gander and appreciate comments

As topic says, what are the current best "ON WALL" speakers available?

Need to set up new system around 65 panny.
They need to be wall mounted.

Was looking at the following:

front speakers - 3 Paradigm Millenia LP's
Rear speakers - 2 Paradigm Millenia LP's
Sub - Paradigm 12" powered sub

This all hooked to an ARCAM AVR400

What else should I consider for speakers? Im not totally sold on the millenias yet, though Ive yet to hear them.

budget is not a concern

Any other opinions?

WAYYYY TOO BIG

So now Im leaning towards the

KEF T305 system: http://kefstore.ca/t305-tseries-system.html

OR:

Monitor Audio Shadow series: http://www.monitoraudiousa.com/products/shadow/

Thoughts?

for the life of me I cannot find any reviews etc of the shadow series from monitor audio.... plenty for the KEF system. The monitor audio set looks nicer tho.

Budget is no concern, I did look at the tribes but they seem huge compared to the alternatives mentioned. Size and the "WIFE" factor are a concern

So far taking a look at the selection of true SLIM speakers, here are my thoughts:

1. Paradigm millenia LP's - they have a limited range 120Hz to 17kHz, now they do have something called low frequency extension 78Hz but do not think that means they go down that low. As well, max power input at 70 watts, - not too keen on the fact they are wider than they needed to be.

2. KEF's T305 system - they have a much better range of 80Hz - 30kHz. Maximum output of 110dB. Their overall dimensions are better than paradigm.

3. Monitor Audio's shadow series - To me these are the most visually attractive out of the bunch, using a black anodized aluminum, they dont have that black glossy appearance. Their 60 series weighs in at 8 lbs, where the others from paradigm and kef were in the 3 - 4 pound range. I believe this is because the shadow series uses a solid all aluminum chassis, where the others are plastic. Specs are great - Range is 70Hz – 30kHz. Maximum SPD 108.6 dBA, Max power handling 120 watts


So looking at all this, I would choose the Monitor Audio shadow series, thing is, I cannot find a damn single review. I have no experience with Monitor Audio's products. Would appreciate peoples comments regarding monitor audio etc. What would you do? Again, budget is not a concern. Size and decent performance is!

So talking with Monitor Audio support... Think Im going to go with them.
They seem to be built solid, with the best look, being anodized aluminum matte black.

This is what Ill get:

2 x shadow 60's for L/R
1 x shadow center

2x shadow 50's for rears

1x RXw12 sub

All powered by an Arcam AVR600

Have you had the chance to hear them yet?

I talked to monitor audio canada and they found me a couple stores demo'ing the shadows on the floor. Saw / heard them yesterday and they were FANTASTIC, both looks and sound wise. Going to place my order tommorow. They had them mounted around a 65" panny VT50, same setup as mine so was more than pleased with the overall look

Post pics when you get yours installed pls

I am considering going with the GXw15 over the RXw12 sub. I really like that the GX has auto EQ where as I dont think the RX does. Just nervous that the 15" sub on the GX may not be "punchy" enough / ie slower than the 12" in the RX. Thoughts?

OR if the GXw15 is not going to fit the bill, what about GSw12, the older ver of the gold subby

Indeed, VT50 is a fantastic set!!!

What are you using as a sub for your set?

For the sub? U do mean surround right? I was asking about the sub

Placed my order today.

This is what finally came together:


2 x shadow 60's for L/R
1 x shadow center
2x shadow 60's for rears
1x GXw15 sub

All powered by an Arcam AVR600

Should have all the gear later this week!
