“I have a Denon AVRX3500H Receiver and had a question... 1) I have a 16-18ft vaulted ceiling in an 18 ft x 22 ft room and want to put surround sound speakers in the ceiling. Would the 8" MAG Series or 6 1/2" MAG Series be best with this receiver?”

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The mag8 would be best to circulate the sound throughout the vaulted ceiling!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.My personal preference is the 8 inch over the 6 1/2. I purchased both and the 8 inch had more base and had a fuller sound. Both 6 and 8 are fairly bright sounding so that played a part in the decision as well. From a mechanical standpoint, generally speaking, the larger the driver, the more sound. Realistically as a surround the 6 1/2 really is sufficient especially if mounting space and desired placement is tight. I also wanted to use these as 6 channel stereo so that was part of the sway also. If the extra cost and mounting space isn't an issue then absolutely I would choose 8 inch. Also your Denon receiver clearly is more capable than my Denon 700 which has enough power to drive those speakers 6 or 8. The directable woofer and tweeter are a very nice feature as well.
