Don't use capital letters (it's like shouting), and try and break up your sentences with some punctuation.
If you can find a used pair of Dunlavy Wl-1's, you might be happy. Very similar sound to their SM-1. Mounting on the wall will always effect imaging and bass response. I use a pair as rear surrounds. I also heard them as front speakers and they were very nice.
here is some real advice rather than a pathetic critique on your choice of case and punctuation.......spendor sr5...the ONLY worthwhile on wall speaker....you will probably need a sub of some sort to get a true dimensional effect.
First, Slipknot has a point.

I can't find the link, but there was just a really great posting on Audiogon referring to wall mounted Magneplanars. The model is MGMC1. Great price and you get a 30-day trial. If these things sound as good as other maggies, then this is a v-e-r-y(notice I didn't 'shout'...) offer.

I've used the B&W Nautilus SCM1 in a two-channel setup. They're kind of like a wall-mountable 805. I liked the sound a lot.

Take a look at B&W SCM1
Hey Tubino...Slip's comment is not pathetic! Case and punctuation in normal discourse is NOT a choice, as you put it. This isn't a poetry fest....
Spendor's SR5 wasn't around last year, so I backed my Spendor front trio (SP3/1 and SC3) with Boston Acoustics VR-MX, the only wall-mounted speakers I found that didn't get congested and bass-boated from boundary reinforcement. (Comparisons were JM Labs, PSB, Def Tech). The Boston'e are also VERY attractive, which helped a lot with WAF.
