Default What in ceiling speakers to match SF house sound?

What in ceiling speakers to match SF house sound?
I have SF O3's for my mains in my home theater. While I listen to 2 channel a lot, I'd like to know what is the best in-ceiling speakers work best with SF for movies and TV shows.

BW seems to have some really nice in ceiling but I don't really care for their house sound. In my opinion BW exaggerates the highs. I haven't had a chance to listen to their better in-ceiling so I have no idea what to get.

I don't think you really can match it in that way.
You should look into Dynaudio also. They have got a new series high performance in wall/ceiling speakers.

A good place to start would be in ceiling speakers that use soft dome tweeters (easy) and pulp paper cones (harder). At least you'll be in the same zip code sound wise.

Thanks. I was looking into the B&W's in ceiling 7 series like the 7.5, 7.4 and 7.3. The 7.3 has a soft dome, and paper/kevlar woofers, and kevlar midrange. It's actually closer than the Venere on-wall speaker setup.
Unfortunately dealers don't have the selection locally to hear in person.

I was considering the on wall venere but I don't see a ready made angle bracket for ceiling mount.
