Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy great sound from your favorite music without giving your house over to bulky, imposing loudspeakers. The AudioSource IC6S in-ceiling speakers sit nearly flush with your ceiling in unobtrusive white (you can also paint the grilles to match your existing color), delivering clear, full-bodied stereo sound from positions of your choice. Their extended high-frequency response lends them to music appreciation from high-resolution audio media like DVD-Audio and SACD.
The discrete, compact format of these AudioSource speakers makes them ideal for applications where traditional speakers would be impractical or impossible. Each speaker measures just 9 inches across and sits 3.25 inches deep (within your ceiling). The speakers may be used wherever you need to conserve space or wherever you'd to bring music to additional rooms in the house, augmenting a traditional stereo set in your main listening area. You could even use them for home theater surround speakers (rear left/right), though most movies and multichannel music releases are mixed for more direct listening.
The IC6S speakers offer 90 dB sensitivity, which makes them easily driven by modest amplifiers. They're rated for use with amps pushing up to 75 watts per channel.
Once installed, the in-ceiling speakers are not easily moved or repositioned. Take a little extra time to carefully consider a good location before you begin your installation. Unlike traditional speakers, in-wall/in-ceiling speakers mount flush and cannot be angled or aimed back into the listening area from the corners of a room. As a general rule, the speakers should be mounted close to, or above, ear level, and at least one-third of the distance from the corner of the room to the center of the wall or ceiling in which you will mount them.
The speaker terminals will accommodate up to 16-gauge speaker wire (wire not included), which should be used for longer connections (greater than 50 feet of wire). For shorter distances, 18- or 20-gauge speaker wire will be adequate. Leave about two feet of extra wire at the speaker end to make installation and positioning of the speaker easier.
What's in the Box
Two speakers, 2 grilles, a paper mounting template, putty (for tightening the grille fit, if necessary), and a user's manual.
Note: Installation is required for use of these speakers. Hookup requires ceiling incisions and running speaker wires (not included) through your ceiling to the speakers.

Great for in wall ambient music,
By PC (Sammamish, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: AudioSource IC6S Round Ceiling Speakers, White (Pair) (Electronics)
I use these speakers for ambient room music. I have a open floorplan house and put these speakers in the wall high enough to be somewhat omnidirectional. I like the round look in the wall better than the square versions. When shopping for speakers, I looked at all brands. A piece of advice on a expert distributor website was not to spend too much on in wall speakers as they are not working in an engineered speaker box, which is critical to speaker performance. In other words, more money doesn't buy you much. For ambient music, these speakers are great. They have excellent fidelity and while you can't pound out the bass, the rest of the music duplication is really good. The tweeter is very lively on this speaker, which surprised me. The size is around 8" outside diameter, so the IC8S speakers would have been huge. They were a snap to install as I had a good wall chase for running the wire. I'm very happy with this product.

Good crisp sound in a small package,

This review is from: AudioSource IC6S Round Ceiling Speakers, White (Pair) (Electronics)
I was a little hesitant to purchase these, but after reading the reviews and the seeing the price drop, I had to commit. I usually purchase Polk or other high end speakers, but I needed something for an A-BUS system that won't be played very loud. These speakers are great for the dining room, kitchen, master bed and loft. In these locations music is played at a moderate level for dining and family enjoyment. It's not where we blast our favorite music, and the speakers perform very well. And somehow the music travels very well horizontally. So even if you don't have speakers installed in every room, you will likely hear music throughout the house. This is one pleasant surprise I didn't expect. By the way, I compared these to my Polk RC80i and the sound quality was very similar. I could tell by turning up the amps that the Polk is a little better quality, but at low levels of volume, the IC6S does a good job at keeping up. So if you are doing multi-room audio, you may want to consider the IC6S.

For the money - u cant beat them,
This review is from: AudioSource IC6S Round Ceiling Speakers, White (Pair) (Electronics)
I was a bit skeptical - however after reading reviews and having a friend who has them throughout his house, decided to buy just one pair and install them. Once I adjusted bass/treble on my amp, they sounded great. I have heard klpishes and bose and those are much much more expensive. For the money, these are great. I was cranking them and they did not distort. The 6 inch provides a good bit of bass as well. That also depends on what you are using to push them.
Very satisfied. I am purchasing more soon to do my entire main level and basement.
