    The Geek squad put these in the ceiling for me and they did a great job. The look is very clean and professional. The screen covers are magnetic so it makes it easy to take them on and off as needed. I bought a higher end receiver with 170 watts per channel and I still have yet to turn the volume all the way up. About 80% and you can't hear yourself talk. Watching movies now is so much more enjoyable.

    Between this and thier 600 pro series speakers I've become a true believer in definitve technology. These guys rounded out my Atmos setup beautifully. They sound amazing and were easy to install in my drop ceiling.

    I always buy Klipsch in-ceiling speakers but since they have gone up in price, I decided to try DT instead since they were cheaper and I had a great recommendation from my neighbor. These DT 8R sound pretty good. They have great treble. good range, and decent bass. I ended up returning them and I got the DI 8R instead. I was able to get those speakers for a much better price and they have better bass. Overall, a cheaper and decent alternative to Klipsch in-ceiling speakers.

    Just purchased my 2nd set now I have 2 atmos ceiling speakers that make all my company want them. I can't tell you enough about the crystal clear noise that comes crashing down on you while you are watching a movie. I am very happy with these purchases.

    We opted to go with this speaker on the recommendation of the in-home consult representative and we are very pleased with all aspects of the speaker. The sound quality is amazing. We would purchase these again if we ever needed to do another in-ceiling speaker install.

    I bought these speakers for a new house and gravitated towards def tech since I'm familiar with their traditional bookshelf speakers. These things deliver a crisp, clean sound when watching tv or a movie from my onkyo receiver. Glad I went with these speakers over saving some money on a less expensive speaker, only to be disappointed.
