    My personal opinion would for you just be aware that ceiling speakers don't sound the best (from a stereo point of view) in general, so it _may_ be worth spending a little extra to at least get as good a sound as you can get.

    I put in these in my house. Something like €300 a pair. I am only using them for surrounds though, not (really) for music. Put proper stereo speakers in for the Fronts.

    Monitor Radius 90's are a small wall mountable speaker they come with a neat little wall bracket. They cost €199 a pair form Richer Sounds. They were originally designed as part of a home cinema package so are very versatile. They are very easy on the eye and ear and handle bass very well for such a small cabinet. I have matched mine with the r360 subwoofer (£200) which further enchances the sound. You can buy a similar sized bose set for €500 which are downright ugly and add nothing to the aural experience.
