I haven't checked to see if there is a Noble Fidelity dealer around Calgary. Are you familiar with this speaker? What would you recommend for a pair of in walls at around the $700 price point? I just need clean, crisp sound for music and don't need a lot of lower end sound as I'll have a sub hooked up as well.
Also when talking about subs I want to purchase a slim sub for that same room. I want it to fit under a cabinet with the space dimension being 6.5 tall x 17 deep x 39 wide. What are your recommendations?

Unfortunately I am not familiar with Noble, so I can't help you there.
When it comes to in-walls, I usually recommend getting in-walls with a built in back box. The back box makes the performance of the speaker very predictable. In a open box design, the size of the wall cavity influences the sound so results become less predictable.
I highly recommend the controlled performance series from Monitor Audio. I have sent a PM in regards to this.
In regards to the sub, this might be a challenge. Is the room under renovations by chance? A in-wall sub might work.
Otherwise, a Sonos sub is designed to work on its side and it is smaller than the space you suggested. The only caveat is that it has to be apart of a Sonos system (which I
highly recommend for music). How are you planning to amp this system and is it tied to any other speakers in the house?
