I am mounting a 61" plasma TV on the wall (inset to be flush with the wall). What speakers should I choose?

The plasma is a 61" pioneer elite. Specifically, I am trying to decide whether to install flush mounted artisan speakers, or speakers in the ceiling. Which of the two would provide better sound? If ceiling speakers are the answer, which brand and size? I will be sitting approximately 16 feet from the TV. Thanks.
newt gingrich, or better yet the former speaker of the house tip oneil
Definately wall mounted if you want the sound coming at you as though it were right there. If you want more of an ambient sound type atmosphere, then go for the ceiling. I’m an installer/engineer for Sound & Vision of Orland Inc. (Soundandvision.net) and I can tell you right now, if you care about the sound going along with that beautiful 61" plasma, you’ll look into getting some B&W’s. (www.bwspeakers.com)
Martin Logan model Fresco on wall speakers or the model Script I. Excellent sound and vert stylish.
Klipsch makes some very nice in-wall speakers along with Niles and many others. If you want some that hang on the wall but accent your plasma, I would take a look at Definitive Technology (www.deftech.com) or Polk Audio (www.polkaudio.com). Both of these companies have some great product offerings for many budgets and their products sound wonderful! Good luck!
