Best wall-mounted home theater speakers?

I am moving to a small Boston condo and my wife has declared that the big honking speakers must go. I spend about 75% of my time listening to music, 25% watching DVDs. What do you think the best wall-mounted speaker solution would be? Is is worth spending big $$$ something like the KEF KHT9000 series, or am I going to be annoyed with the bass no matter what and should just save the money for a TV upgrade? Among the satellites, are there meaningful differences between the KHT 2005 series, the Anthony Gallo satellites, and Mirage's Omnisat speakers?

Thanks for the post, Txp1. I have to admit that at ~ $1800 a speaker, buying 5 of the Legacy speakers is out of my range. I have in mind systems that would cost between $1500-3500 used, incl sub.

Out of my range too!

Paradigm makes some in-wall speakers (or at least did). Check their website.

I have Paradigm Ref. 60's in a separate home theater system, and I had them in my audio system until I upgraded speakers.

Paradigm just released some new cinema series on walls that sound fantastic. If you want to step it up I would reccomend the James 62-OW on walls. They sound great and they have a patented frequency adjustment which really helps in hard to manage rooms.
