    in-wall speakers to match 804 diamond - input please

    I'm considering upgrading my speakers to 804Di's and an HTM4Di in order to switch to in-wall rear channel speakers. I've had B&W 703's (and their matching center/surrounds) in the past, and I've auditioned the 804Di's and enjoy them.

    What I can't seem to figure out is which in-wall speakers that B&W makes would match the 804Di's. Any help?

    The primary use for the rear in-walls speakers will be for surround in movies and non-critical/ambient 5-ch listening. Thus, I imagine I will be fine without diamond-quality tweeters, but I would like something that is voiced similarly enough that there is not a noticeable difference while watching movies.

    Additionally, the listening area is just a living room, and not very big... about 13x14, with a vaulted ceiling and the long end of the room actually opening up to a "great room" area. Electronics are (for now) simply a Rotel 1560 and an Oppo BDP-83.

    Are B&W 804 Diamond good enough for me?
    by smiletimeDK
    I'm seriously thinking about an upgrade to B&W 804 Diamond, because I love the design. I haven't heard them yet, but I could imagine, that they are much better than my current B&W XT4. I use Thule PR350B as preamp and Thule PA350BV (2x350w) as power amplifer.

    I have used this...

    B&W 804 diamond or previous 803D?
    by blazhnov
    Could you please help me in choosing the better option? I can buy either of these two speakers but new 804 diamond cost by €1.150 more than second-hand 803D. What would be your advice?
