Any suggestions on what I should replace them with? Thinking of B&W, but that might be overkill for my bathroom and bedroom.

And yes, the home theater is standalone. So two of the ten in-ceiling speakers are taken care of. Just need to power the remaining eight. My installer is going to provide me with a quote for an eight channel SnapAV amp. But is there a more cost efficient way? Can I buy two "cheap" amps that power four speakers each? So I buy a 9.1 channel amp, and drive the eight speakers with that receiver?
More than happy to help you out feel free to PM me, I just can't help much until I wrap my head around exactly WTF you're dealing with which sounds like a mess.
