High-end audio meets wall mounted speakers
Lets be honest here. Speakers sound the best when the are not on the wall. Sure, speakers may sound good when they are on the wall but not their best. Who wants speakers on the floor when your flat panel is on the wall though? 6moons audio has a review of Anthony Gallo Acoustics Reference speakers that may change that thinking though,
You may not be familiar with Anthony Gallo but he (and his company) is best known for their unique tweeter. Born in 1987, the cylindrical diaphragm transducer (CDT) is a radical approach that produces amazing sounds. These new speakers utilize this tweeter, but unlike many other speakers, these boys are made to hang on the walls and sound great.
They may be too radical for a lot of people but they have the same color scheme as many Sony Vegas. They cost $1,199 each and should be available in high-end audio stores soon. They would look killer next a Sony 40-inch Bravia XBR LCD.

I've been lusting after Anthony Gallo Acoustics speakers for a while. I got to hear the Reference 3s at Fred's Sound of Music in Portland, and they blew me away. I plan on getting the A'Diva Ti as a 5.1 system, along with one of the subs (back and forth on which one). Eventually I hope to have this center channel as well as the Reference 3s as my main stereo speakers. That's my goal this year, but I don't know how realistic it is. *drool*

I have owned Gallo equipment for years. Stunning soundstaging with a neutral, true hi-fidelity performance that is beyond its price point. Gallo's smaller speakers, at an even more affordable price point is just amazing stuff for the average home theater user.
