FPM5 or Signature 7NT

[Pinstripe1]

I'm newbie on the board and to high quality audio in general.

I'm trying to decide between using in-wall Signature 7NT's or FPM5's for my front L/R and center speakers. Its proving very difficult to demo both so I was hoping to get some opinions from the members here. Also, if in-wall is the better option what should be done for wall prep on a retro-fit installation?

I need to use an on-wall or in-wall for space concerns and need to be under $800 per. Will be about 50/50 music/movies and driven by a Rotel RSX-1067. Surround will be B&W in-ceiling (again for space concerns).

Any opinions or alternatives appreciated. Thanks.

I have FPMs for my suround system and am very happy and impressed with them. You will have to budget in a sub, but other then the fact the FPMs down reach to low on their own you arent loosing any sound quality. They are considered to be a slightly better sound quality to the B&W 600 series.

Thanks. What sub are you using with the FPM? Does it fill out the FPM nicely?
