Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Reclaim your living room while rediscovering the joy of music. NXG Technology's 3-way NX-PRO8300 in-wall/in-ceiling speakers make powerful accessories for your stereo or surround-sound listening. Each of the two speakers is outfitted with a large, 8-inch titanium-anodized, injection-molded woofer with a durable rubber surround, a 2.5-inch titanium-anodized Mylar midrange driver, and a 1-inch liquid-cooled, titanium-dome tweeter.

The tweeters swivel so you can tailor their position to your listening area, and both the tweeter and the midrange driver feature an adjustable control to let you adjust their output level to your taste or to help you compensate for conditions in your listening environment. (A room with highly reflective hardwood floors, for instance, might sound better with less tweeter output than a carpeted room.)

With in-wall speakers, the wall and the space behind it actually become the speaker cabinet, resonating with lower (bass) frequencies that would be lost without the focusing a cabinet provides. As such, the speaker depth is just 4 inches, yet they still deliver an impressive, full-range 35 to 22,000 Hz frequency response. Mounted flush to the wall, they occupy absolutely no floor space. This discreet, compact format is perfect for applications where traditional speakers would be impractical or impossible--or simply unsightly.

The speakers' sensitivity is rated at 90 dB (1 watt @ 1 meter), which means they're easily driven; NXG recommends use with integrated amplifiers or surround receivers ranging from 5 to 150 watts (maximum) per channel. The speakers sound great on their own, but you can also use them to bring music from your living-room system to additional rooms in the house.

NXG recommends using a minimum of 16-gauge speaker wire for all installations, keeping in mind that gauge decreases as the wire thickens (i.e. 14-gauge wire is thicker than 16-gauge wire). You may paint the perforated speaker grilles, as well as the frames, to match any room.

What's in the Box
Two speakers with removable grilles, a mounting template, and a user's manual with warranty information.

Note: Tools required for installation include a drill and bits, a stud finder, a utility knife or drywall saw, a level, wire cutter/strippers, and speaker wire or speaker cable (all sold separately).

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent In wall speakers for the price., December 17, 2005

You would be hard pressed to find a better sounding pair of in wall speakers for the low price of the NX-PRO8300's. They fill my rooms very nicely, and the sound is excellent. The only reason for not giving them 5 stars is that they will rattle in your drywall unless you mount them with the rough-in kit (extra charge, sold separately)
