medic8r to the rescue?

So far i have received the dimensions and some basic mounting from JC. Hopefully they will put together a manual soon. Basically he said you need to build a "niche" for the in cabinet speakers.

better give these guys a call....

They are also available in the regular vinyl finishes like the rest of their speakers for a 12% upcharge. This means I can get the Boston Cherry If i decide to mount them in the walls instead of behind the screen which is where i started in this thread. Funny how the more I talk through this the more i change my mind. I suppose it is the best way to ensure that in the end i have considered all options and there will be no regrets. I'm going to spend a ton of money so i want the room to be as nice as i can make it technically and aesthetically.

I may need some help from the niche professionals

I've always found it a lot easier to find a niche than it is to fill one.

She has to be willing.

Not back in the days when we carried clubs around. Ah those were the days, see a chick you liked, you club her over the head and drag her back to your cave. Of course HT's were pretty basic back in those days. They consisted of a few chalk drawings on your main wall and that was pretty much it.

Yeah screw that, dispite the fact that I can't knock a girl over the head when I want to get laid, I'm glad I live in the modern age!

I have the In-cab M60's. The front baffle has a 1cm lip all the way around, so you can't just put them on the floor (well you can, but I don't think the baffle will support the weight.) Otherwise, the cabinet is a box. You could very easily take some 1/2 thick material and wrap the speaker in it to convert it to a "floorstanding" speaker. If looks aren't an issue, just glue some to the bottom. They are very heavy, you'll need some type of wood support if you try to lift them up and put them in the wall.

No ports on the back though, which would fit your needs.

I don't have mine installed yet, but they are currently in my BR, about 6" from the wall, and sound great. See my sig for a few pics of the speakers.
