AudioSource's AS5C 5.25-inch speakers go right into your ceiling to combine out-of-the-way convenience with the audio needs of your home or business. A two-way speaker that has a 3/4 inch center-mounted pivoting tweeter for those higher frequencies and a woofer for lower frequencies, the AS5C offers a frequency response range of 50 Hz to 22 kHz.

The speakers are designed to be moisture-resistant, with the woofers constructed of polypropylene and surrounded with Butyl rubber for durability. The baked enamel-coated grill is rust-proof and easy-to-paint, letting you adjust the speakers' appearance to your decor. The tweeters are treated with ferro fluid cooled voice coil for extended highs. With a power handling of 60 watts and a sensitivity of 90 dB, the AS5C gives you quality and value, and is perfect for home theater use or for distributed sound. The AS5C is packaged in pairs.

Others have provided bad reviews for these speakers based on poor frequency response. We are only talking about a speaker capable of handling 60 Watts but when you hook them up to a bookshelf stereo you are going to get bookshelf stereo sound.

I bought 5 pairs of these speakers for my whole house audio (WHA) based on nothing more than reviews and price. Now mind you, I have these hooked up to a very high quality Denon receiver with 2x110 Watts driving all of the WHA speakers. I am MORE than satisfied with the sound of these little marvels. Come on, under 30 bucks a pair when the closest comparable in-ceiling speaker from Best Buy or similiar would be 150 bucks a pair.

I am extremely happy with my purchase, the speakers look beautiful in my ceilings and I feel the sound is more than adequate for WHA speakers. They will never be played at high volume levels and should not be expected to. While installing these I had them playing music and you could easily hear the boost in bass level once installed in the ceiling (acoustic baffle is the attic).

Don't expect these to be your main speakers for your home theater, that is not what they are designed for. But if you want some speakers perfect for background music for a VERY good price ... these are for you!

I have these installed in my 7.1 surround system and do not use them for anything more than surround but I am happy with the output I've heard from them.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK, but not much base, June 26, 2007

Bought and then returned these for larger speakers that could produce lower bass. OK clarity, midrange was fine but as the only speakers in the room they didn't produce enough lows for my taste.
