We're about to do a full home remodel and the sky's sort of the limit (within reason) for our movie-watching den. The room isn't incredibly deep so we will just have a sectional in there most likely (no theater seating or anythign crazy) and I'm thinking I want to do like a 60" tv rather than a projector just due to ease of use and not having to wait for the lamp to heat up.

Hoping to find some good clean-install inspiration imagery. This thread has been awesome but do any of you have any outside resources you like checking or pinterest boards or something for A/V setups?

My girlfriend isn't a big fan of my Aperion Intimus cherry speakers unfortunately, even though I just finally found some lightly used 5T towers and a 5C center to match the 5B bookshelves I have that I love. So she's mandating I look for a way to hide the speakers (ie: in-wall speakers). Does anyone have any info on what some of the best in-wall speaker makers I should be looking at are? I know Aperion has these: http://www.aperionaudio.com/new-intimus-l6-iw-in-wall-speaker but it feels like it would be quite a compromise to go from towers to those. Assuming I'm given cart blanche to "make the speakers disappear" what would be the best approach to hide them or put them in-wall without sacrificing too much on sound quality?

edit: looks like paradigm makes some pretty incredible low-profile speakers and in-wall/in-ceiling speakers... they even have in-wall and in-ceiling subs which is crazy. unfortunately, holy-ish, these are pretty drat expensive compared to floorstanding speakers. Here's hoping I can find some sort of architectural speakers that are a happy middle-ground between price & sound quality. That's what I really appreciate about aperion but they just don't have a very wide offering as far as architectural speakers go yet.
