As anyone heard or use Dayton In-wall Speakers, Being a Polk fan yes but RC65i's would be a little costly considering 5 sets of them. These<a href="http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?PartNumber=300-036&raid=37&rak=300-036">6.5&quot; speaker</a> seem pretty sweet for the money, but I'm I really getting 1/5 of a speaker?

    I used the Dayton inwalls to build a HT for a retired couple that wanted a nice theater for when they had the grandkids over (I wanted them to adopt me but no-go!) and for a friends living room HT. For the price, I was impressed. I really didn't compare them to the Polks or other options, it was more of a price thing. Both HT's sounded really good, especially for what the cost was. Both have been running for almost two years, both are driven by Denon receivers, and although neither application was for audiophiles or enthusiasts, they were both more than satisfied. I have spent some time with the one HT, and I could live with it. The Polks, Paradigms are better, but are also more expensive.

    I was a little confused on what I wished to add too house, RC65i at $320 a pair vs. Dayton 6.5" for $50. Most wiring as been completed, but speakers and controls to be added down the road. $320 a pair / room was killing me until I found them on E-bay for $140 shipped, liking Polk's again for the house. All in all can't see spending $ that I couldn't get out of house, lower cost happier future seller.

    Sorry I look at Houses for future exit points. ;)

    My houses are always investments managed for future sale and return. Great find on the Polks!
