I spent a lot of time researching home theater systems with good music playing quality. I finally decide on a Panasonic 5 disk changer. I have the evil TV in the bar, so, it makes life easier.

5 speakers is great. Real surround sound so that I can turn it on low and everyone hear it well. I burned 5 CDs of music I play on random.

For the install, I mounted the speakers up high in the black area of my ceiling to hide them and then used split 1/2" bamboo to conceal the white wires. I mounted a shelf to the underside of the bar to put the unit on so it is out of the way and at my fingertips. It also has an iPod dock so we can change gears and listen to some Ludacris when the mood hits. Put the subwoofer under the couch. The ladies like that rumble seat....

It is all pretty well hidden, which is the ideal. And the small speaker really make the whole room full of music.

This is with a flash. You really cannot see these speakers at normal light levels. I also painted the wire you can see black.

You can just see the shelf with the unit in the upper right.
