This will be mostly for TV/movie use, although I'd like to pair it with some nice bookshelf speakers for music as well. I am not a fan of overly bright speakers...which seems like these days is most of them.

I've been doing a bit of research, and see options from Klipsch, Polk, Dynaudio, B+W, KEF...but hoping to hear some anecdotal thoughts on specific brands if anyone has them. Need to pull the trigger on one relatively quickly.
They dont generally sound great for the cost, they sound better if you build the wall specifically with the speakers in mind, extra screws, gluing, plywood rear wall etc, I would be more likely to build in a recess and built in wiring for a ported bookshelf speaker than go in wall
