    These Yamaha speakers have a clear, good sound! Installation in a drop ceiling was easy. Would recommend and purchase again!

    Awesome in-ceiling speakers for Atmos

    I bought 2 pairs of these to use as Atmos overhead channels in my 7.2.4 setup. They are crisp, clean and have all the punch needed for a superb Atmos experience. My go-to demo with these has been the bluray of Midway. Lots of active Atmos scenes are present throughout the film, and it's a great movie as well. When I eventually upgrade to a 3rd pair of in-ceiling speakers for Auro 3D, I'll likely grab another pair of these.

    These speakers are pretty great. I was extremely surprised of the clarity and the bass. I will say though be careful with the clips as they are very sensitive and if you break them you are in for a bumpy ride. The speakers come with nice wire terminals and they are pretty strong. But I am most impressed with the sound. I have the SC-82 Pioneer Elite and that thing is powerful and they handled the power pretty well. I also have the 8 inch ones and those are great too. Give them a shot you wont be disappointed. I was happy that Best buy had them although I did get a second pair cheaper on Amazon. No offense Best Buy!

    These are great for a commercial space. Bought these for my sister's salon and the pair alone provide clear sound for 900 sf. Comes with a template to cut out circle from Ceiling Tile.

    I installed surround sound in my bedroom and needed speakers that would give good sound without having to add huge components. These give great sound for when my wife and I watch a movie in bed or if I'm watching sports in my room.

    Bought two pairs recently and had seen a review that mentioned challenges with drop ceilings and was little worried. But in the end turned out just fine as the built in drywall clamps work well for drop ceilings. Only issue is how to press down the drop ceiling when tightening this, remove the adjacent one and gently press it down till you tighten all four corners of the clamp. Just done over tighten it. I even added a cheap but well made $2 plastic bowl shaped perfectly for the speaker back with tiny cut out for the cables, no more sound leakage into the empty drop floor ceiling and much improved sound and focus. Even before this improvisation, it was not bad for Height / Atmos duties. Excellent speakers for the price. Initially was going to buy the RSL ones, which have awesome reviews and great sound quality for $250 a pair, but at $94 a pair this was a good deal...

    I love these. They are priced right and offer excellent sound quality in my drop panel ceiling. They were literally a snap to install,and the grilles were fully paintable. Be careful of clearance since the speaker units are deep, for better bass reproduction.

    Investing in quality audio doesn't always mean breaking the bank, and the Yamaha 6-1/2" 2-Way In-Ceiling Speakers stand as a testament to this philosophy. Offering reasonable sound quality for the price, these speakers have found a sweet spot both in my ceiling and in the market for budget-conscious audio enthusiasts :).

    I upgraded from in-ceiling speakers installed by the Developer. First off, the build quality is so much better than my Sun In-ceiling Speakers. It's very crisp and can handle sound tracks with heavy base. For the price, this pair is a solid performer. Also, installation was easier than my Sun Speakers or Monoprice Speakers (which I also have, but do NOT recommend).

    I paired these with a Yamaha receiver and am more than impressed with the sound that comes from these smaller speakers, it took a minute to adjust levels and distance, but once they are in sync they sound phenomenal. The install was also easy. They look great, has a nice flush/flat finish, also love the magnet grill.

    Replaced some existing speakers and mid measures. These were larger than what I was replacing. It’s ended up being okay as I was able to enlarge it with the template. Easy to install, I like the clips that keep it in place. The speaker grill goes to the edge whereas the original speakers I was replacing had a bezel. That bezel made them appear more flush as it tapered down from the middle to the edge. These are probably 1/4 off the ceiling all the way around. They have a great sound and are much louder than the speakers we replaced. Very happen with the on a whim purchase.

    I put these speakers in my game room drop ceiling. The installation was very easy.They have a great sound. They carry all the base I needed and the hights are very clear. There are better speakers on the market, but not for the price.
