  • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    Great compromise for surround speakers.

    Excellent in-ceiling speakers. I have a room I wanted surround and had no back wall or side walls to be used, this was the only option I had to get a LR surround track. It takes a very short time to get use to, but immediately filled a large void in my soundstage.

    Excellent in ceiling speakers!

    Bought these for in ceiling 5.1 setup to pair with a Denon AVR, very pleased with the sound even though I could not find anyone who has a review on these speakers, recommend for anyone with a budget.
