Anyone familiar with Speakercraft AIM7-three speakers

I am looking for a couple in-ceiling speakers for rear surround channels. I want the speaker to be fully enclosed so it transmits less to the room above. Does anyone know if the AIM7-three speakers are enclosed? The information on the Speakercraft web site doesn't say it is, or not. The pictures look like it might be but there are not pictures of the back directly. There doesn't seem to be a way to contact anyone at Speakercraft, which I view as a downside to buying their speakers...

it's not, but their AccuFit line have some that are fully enclosed. I am looking for fully enclosed in wall speakers too. there are not many out there, MTX has one, Thiel has 2 in wall/lceiling fully enclosed speakers, and maybe another one or two, but probably out of my price range.

Thanks. Yeah, I was also considering in-wall (but mounted in the ceiling) as well. These are the ones I had found:

HSU Research HIW-1 Horn In-Wall (~$300/pr)
Axiom M3 v3 (~$368/pr)
Speakercraft AccuFit IW7 Three ($640/pr)
Linn Sekrit ($1040/pr)
Leon Vault 114 ($995/pr), 115 ($1295/pr)

I would strongly consider these for in-ceiling rears:

Enclosed and have a angled woofer and tweeter for better sound.
