Ceiling Speaker - Whether you are looking to create a discreet multi room sound system or ceiling speakers that will work with Dolby Atmos, the Monitor Audio C165 tick all the boxes.
THE PRICE SHOWN IS PER SPEAKER To buy the C165 as a pair please add two to the basket. - Let's face it, no matter how pretty a freestanding speaker is, there is no way of hiding it. Ceiling speakers are becoming more common place due to the fact that when installed they are almost invisible.
A speaker can in some cases sound a little bright ( Too much treble ) this is mainly down to the fact that it has been installed close to a wall and the treble is bouncing around the room. Thanks to the adjustable high frequency switch the Monitor Audio C165 ceiling speakers can be adjusted to counteract these effects.
As custom installers we work with ceiling speakers everyday, not all are created equal and we are happy to say that in this price range the C165 are fantastic.
When installing ceiling speakers we recommend the use of Firehoods. Not only does a firehood maintain the integrity of your ceilings fire resistance, it also prevents sound leakage into other rooms by acting as an acoustic barrier. We always install speaker cable that meets the LSZH ( Low Smoke Zero Halogen ) Specification regardless of where it is being installed. This is because the regulations are constantly changing as to where this certified speaker cable should be used. We are here to help with any questions you have about installing ceiling speakers.
