This architectural speaker features a paintable aluminum grille that provides rust protection when mounted in moisture-prone areas, such as bathrooms, kitchens and saunas. The 1" dome tweeter distributes smooth, clear sound over a wide area.
I bought these speakers to replace some that used to sit on the floor behind my TV viewing sofa. Unfortunately my grandkids decided they were good stepping stools - and since the speakers were facing upwards, well let me just say that was not the best way to take care of those old speakers. Now with the ceiling mounted speakers, I do not have to worry about the grandkids ruining them. So far I am pleased with the speakers and they do work well when I play a Blu-Ray video that has good stereo/dolby sound. I used the boxes they were shipped in - upside down over the speakers, next to the drywall in the attic, to keep the insulation from getting into the speaker area.
What's great about it: Easily installed in ceiling, mounted between rafters.
What's not so great: Attic side is not sealed to keep out insulation - don't throw away the shipping boxes.
