These speakers are excellent
My home burned down on December 31, 2010. After evaluating a lot of options, we decided we would rebuild the home ourselves. As part of the reconstruction effort, I wanted to install speakers in every room of my home (even the bathrooms), and wire my home with gigabit Ethernet. I had looked at a number of speakers before settling on these. In the end, I purchased and installed 35 of these speakers — two each in three bedrooms, two baths, the kitchen, the dining room, and the sun room; five speakers in the master bedroom (5.1 surround sound); and seven speakers each in the family room and living room (7.2 surround sound). In the rooms where I support surround sound, I also have Polk Audio PSW10 powered subwoofers (excellent subwoofers).The sound from these speakers is simply amazing. I am a software engineer by profession, but I also have a music degree and I spent several years as a professional musician. My taste in music is varied — from blues and hard rock, to new age, to classical, to electronica and beyond. As a result, I need speakers that will faithfully reproduce the sound I want to listen to — these speakers do that. When I need lots of bass for electronica while listening to Deadmau5, Pendulum, or Cosmic Gate, these speakers deliver. If I want something to support hard rock with driving bass and screaming guitar like Jimmy Hendrix, Johnny Winter, or Led Zeppelin, these speakers do the job better than the ten-inch JBL’s I used to use before my home burned down. If I just want to chill out and listen to Mozart, Greig, or Copland, these speakers faithfully reproduce the strings and woodwinds without any distortion. I have not found another speaker that demonstrate as much versatility as these speakers do.Another plus is that these speakers are very reasonable in price — less expensive than Polk, Yamaha, Bose, and many other brands. If you are someone that likes to listen to music so loud that it actually hurts your ears, these speakers may not be for you — in that case I would recommend JBL or Celeston speakers for extreme volume (although JBL’s are terrible for classical music as they color the sound too much). However, I have pushed these speakers at 80 percent power using 105 watt receivers and they do not distort at all (and they are very loud). I normally listen to music at a level that allows me to still have a conservation with someone, so factor that into my review (I am not a fan of REALLY LOUD music).As far as mounting goes, these speakers are very easy to mount — the speaker terminals have red and black push in buttons to feed 14 AWG speaker wire into, and there are four screws you turn to lock the speaker into the ceiling and mount it securely. The speakers come with white grills, and they look great when they are installed. The construction of these speakers is very sturdy, and the cones are reinforced. Also, while these are rated as eight inch speakers, they are actually almost ten inches in diameter when you mount them with the grills — you will want to take that into account. I have ten-inch floor joists in my house that are mounted sixteen inches on center, which form really nice hollow boxes for mounting the speakers into the ceiling.If there was a slight negative to these speakers, I would say that they carry a lot of sound through walls and floors. Watching a movie with great theater sound late at night can be a problem if you don’t want to wake people up, even when the speakers are at low volumes. If I decide to install speakers in my finished basement, I will buy more of these. Dollar for dollar, these speakers cannot be beat.

With the help of the approximative dimensions needed for the In-wall installation, we built two 5/8″ prefinished MDF 14″ X 11″ X 5 3/8″ enclosures to accommodate these kits even using the actual tabs of those for the In-box installation, not forgetting either some fluffy fibrous material to somewhat damper some inner frequencies.The result, probably the best sounding speakers in our house driven by a 100 W / channel tube amp, surprisingly, absolutely everything is there, bass, mids and highs ! The voices are like nothing we’ve heard before, very clear and cristalline, not too much, just perfect ! The percussions are another highlight of these speakers, crisp and percussive, we’re very happy with the end result, no doubt, a similar In-wall installation will surely give you similar stellar results !Good products easily adaptable ! Thank you !

I use these speakers as height channels for my 5.2.1 setup through an old Denon 1500h and Polk S series speakers. These speakers replace the considerably more expensive Polk owm 3s being used previously along with a wall mountCheaper price and aesthetics aside, the focused sound that they are able to provide beats the OWM 3 hands downMy frame of reference is the race scene from Ready Player One (4K DVD). Audio from these speakers is well positioned and directionality is not lost when seated around the main listening position used for initial calibrationOne caveat to this review: they work well for my purpose, I.e. atmos speakers, which by definition come in very infrequently. If your intention is to use them in a stereo setup, please look at other reviews first as well. The above being said, I don’t think you can do much better than these for Atmos. You’d be getting very marginal gains (if any) for 2-3x the price

Great Speaker for a great price and good delivery time considering COVID19 USA to Victoria AUST 🙂
