Ratings: BG Radia R-800 In-Wall Speakers

Build Quality: 96
Well built with a steel frame and machined aluminum baffle

Value: 96
One of the most expensive in-walls, but well worth it for a no-holds-barred media room/home theater

Features: 95
Separate bass amp reduces demand on main amp or receiver

Performance: 98
Excellent transparency, detail, and definition, especially with vocals

Ergonomics: 93
This is not a speaker for the do-it-yourselfer. Have them professionally installed with extra wall and cavity bracing

Overall Rating: 96
These huge BG in-walls employ planar-ribbon drivers to remarkably transparent ends. They can be both subtle and powerful.
