Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
AudioSource's AS8C eight-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 one-inch center-mounted pivoting tweeter for those higher frequencies and a woofer for lower frequencies, the AS5C offers a frequency response range of 28 Hz to 24 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 100 watts and a sensitivity of 90 dB, the AS8C gives you quality and value, and is perfect for home theater use or for distributed sound.

The AS8C is packaged in pairs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great speakers, and great price., January 13, 2007
By 1gringofromLA (West Covina, CA United States) - See all my reviews
I reviewed a LOT of speakers before purchasing these. In fact, I agonized for six months over which speakers to buy for my family room, whether to cut holes in the ceiling, mount speakers on the wall with brackets, etc. Numerous visits to Circuit City and Best Buy had me discouraged. The speakers they offered looked nice, but they didn't sound as good as the $30 bookshelf speakers right on the next shelf over, and cost about eight times as much. I finally took a gamble with these AudioSource speakers (had never even heard of the brand before), given the price, size and wattage.
I am very pleased with the sound. I am not a sound engineer, but I do consider myself an audiophile and appreciate good sound - good lows AND highs without either overpowering the other. These speakers deliver that balance.
The directions were easy to follow and with a little help, I had them installed in about 2 hours, including prep time, running cable, clean-up, etc.
The description on these speakers don't do them justice. They sound better than the Polk, Infinity, JBL speakers I tested at Circuit City and Best Buy, which were in the $200+ price range.
I highly recommend them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great sound for the price, March 29, 2007
By D. Berg "dan-o-war" (Wilton, CT United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Easy to install, and they sound really nice for the price. My only gripe is that it can be REALLY hard to turn the screws that secure them to the drywall. Each speaker has 4 "feet" that anchor it tightly to the drywall and I was only able to get three of them to turn on each speaker.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Sound and Easy Installation, July 30, 2007
By M. Hurley (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
These are my 4th pair (Two pair for surround sound in the family room, one pair for the upstairs hallway for house music, and now one pair in the garage).

The sound is amazing, whether or not you consider the price...they just sound great, period. And they are very easy to install.
