how has this video not gotten more views..so informative.

[@jackmaersk1854]

I have added 4 x monitor audio ceiling speakers in my multimedia room, and they are phenomenal. Listening to high fidelity music and/or anything is the best sound I have ever had. Top notch, without question and I have installed and listened to many..

[@hypnotechno]

awesome i want to do the same May i ask what models

[@jeanbaron8668]

The best and most informative video!!

[@smadlani]

Excellent and to the point and every avenue covered. Best wishes

[@JamesSpibey]

Excellent video, very informative

[@sm5172]

Great video, thank you!

[@dinozaurpickupline4221]

for main tv media set use proper stereo setup 5.1 surround,my main concern is proper placement i want stereo speakers either directly above the sofa or front firing ones for bathroom I think putting separate pair for toiletries would be best & for kitchen fm radio tuner would suffice me but people looking at ceilings actually want audio in every room everywhere considered like disco bar setup

[@Wild2nite1]

Concerning ceiling Speakers. If you have two different pairs of sizes. Which one suppose to be at the front. The big one or the small ones. Thank you

[@davidgunther1282]

1:42 : “you can spray paint them, just be sure you’re using the right type of spray paint.” So what is the right type of spray paint?

[@nickthompson7369]

One that's compatible with in ceiling speakers

[@swissmiss8171]

Thank you. Very helpful information.

[@williamburger9317]

Do you think Sonos will ever produce wireless ceiling speakers which could supplement the upward firing speakers of their sound bar?

[@iamchriseagland]

Brilliant video. Well done. Thank you.

[@myatix1]

Thanks for the great video... I am considering purchasing a set of B&W 600 ceiling speakers BUT... I have a vaulted ceiling do you have any good proposals for installing ceiling speakers retrofit. I want to use them for both Audio and Atmos home theater.

[@terryfincham7252]

Hi, did you get speakers. If so how do they sound. I've just had an extension built on my home with vaulted ceiling. So looking at recommendations before I plasterboard ceiling. Any info much appreciated

[@FreshlySnipes]

If I am putting ceiling speakers in my living room, why would I want left and right speakers vs. a mono speaker? Wouldn’t it sound weird if a speaker in one side of the room is playing half the music and the speaker on the other side is playing the other half? I’m looking for a good setup for my home. I want to install about 2 speakers per room, inside and outside. What would be your suggestion?

[@KC-ht2oc]

I have a question on stereo. The recommendation is to set them up as stereo speakers if room is big enough - but surely this would mean that as you move around the room you would hear either the right or left side. If you are setting up for a kitchen extension where multiple people are moving around - would it not make sense to use mono speakers?

[@CampfireCrucifix]

I also have the same question.

[@dhess34]

Great video, thanks!

[@Coecoebrown]

What is “the right kind of spray paint”?

[@TheYyam85ahaz]

What would you recommend for a room (Garage gym) thats 21’ x 21’ about 9’6” ceiling height? thanks, great content

[@smarthomesounds]

Hi there, thanks for watching. I'd recommend 4 decent quality speakers in that size room. Bowers & Wilkins do a great variety of options to accommodate ambient listening all the way up to high volumes at really good price points. You could start your search at the CCM665s for £315 a pair and work forward or backwards from that depending on budget. Reach out to us if you'd like any further advice.

[@MollyKCasey]

what do I need to get old ceiling speakers working?

[@justinmanny86]

Are you familiar with Martin Logan Vanquish ceiling speakers?

[@davidgunther1282]

3:29 : “...3 screws that you screw into the ceiling , then once it’s up you need to undo these clamps and then they sit...” I thought the screws controlled the clamps and the clamps squeezed the rim of the speaker against the drywall. When you say “screw into the ceiling,” do you actually mean you’re screwing into the drywall that close to the edge of the hole?

[@JosephByrne]

The screws turn the feet which secure it to the ceiling. You don't screw anything into the plasterboard.

[@bhanuprakashap.t8708]

Shall v connect ceiling speakers to home theatre system?

[@matt-i3r6w]

Is it worth it to get in-ceiling speakers or an external home theater audio?

[@nhcollette]

I have passive ceiling speakers that were put in about 15 years ago. I don't know if they are wired correctly, however, they used to work. Do you know of a midrange (price wise) bluetooth / wireless amplifier that I could look into? It appears the wires from the speaker where all brought to a switch panel which took its input from the amplifier. So you could push the switch for room 1 and 2 but not rooms 3 and 4. I hope that makes sense? thoughts on how to bring this back to life? Also it looks like they used monster cable so what happens if crossed the terminals somewhere along the way? Sorry so many questions, but it would be great to get them working again.

[@philmcclenaghan7056]

I had the same situation. Bought a Sonos amp to connect the wires.. Be warned, Sonos amp only takes 2 zones

[@VonSpud]

Very interesting, thanks.

[@MrRajSood01]

Hey thanks great video can you please advice good multi room home audio systems which are wired? Because I can't seem to find many on KZbin or on google most of them are wireless... Thanks in advance

[@nikony9555]

For open floor plan where left and right and far Apart, Could you do add a stereo speaker with dual tweeter in center also ? Would that improve sound ?

[@443Black]

Would 150watt amp be too much for it?

[@Whd29393]

Can we connect these ceilling speaker with any home theater 5.1 which provides dolby atmos dts x???? Please guild us. If yes then how?

[@corielledilse1412]

we recently bought our home & I'm unsure how to use our speakers theres red/ black screw swtiches on the wall but Im unsure how to make them work/ hook them up can someone show me a link what i need??

[@hugocastilho3412]

Congratulations for the video. Very informative. I would like some help, please. It’s about a 43 m2 square living room. Sometimes small parties with high sound. Would you advice for 3 pairs of 6,5 “ in ceiling speakers, 2 pairs of 8” or even 3 pairs of 8”? I intend to have a 10 or 12” subwoofer on the floor too. Thanks!

[@gamingofthelegend3907]

Could I add ceiling speakers with surround system?

[@gregwilliams4286]

how do you connect the speakers to a TV?

[@downs3627]

Greg Williams speakers to the amp. HDMI to tv

[@B3ASTM0D3.]

Speakers to a dedicated amplifier. I use Sonos. You can then, depending on your house wiring, hdmi to amp or dedicated inputs for an amp.

[@jellyminus2214]

Do i need an amp to make sonance 8in work well or can I use my AV

[@mvsrpharma]

Thanks

[@nto888]

is it possible to pair 6 of those in ceilings with 1 sonos amp?

[@smarthomesounds]

Hi Anthony. Sonos have since released a statement outlining that you can only install 6 ceiling speakers on the Amp if you are using Sonos ceiling speakers. Any other brands, the maximum would be 4 per single Amp to avoid any strain on the Amp. Hope this helps!

[@B3ASTM0D3.]

It all depends on the current draw of the speakers. All 6 can not supersede the max continuous output of the amplifier.

[@B3ASTM0D3.]

My company installs physical volume controlls so you can manually adjust volume without digging in your pocket.

[@B3ASTM0D3.]

Usually near a switch box. Either deck or in living space.

[@juandoe7802]

How much does your company charge to (as an example) cut out the holes, mount the speakers to the ceiling, and route the cables to a receiver? I already have a 5.1, but would love a 5.2.4...I just need the ceiling speakers installed

[@jiageng1997]

5:57 was anyone else thinking about something else when he was "talking about size"...?

[@monitoraudiogroup]

👌

[@rbhe357]

4:06 It was stated that "active" speakers do not need speaker wires, only power. This is not accurate as you still need to deliver signal (the music) from the source. There is no such thing as a wireless install. Active speakers have the advantage of eliminating the need for heavier wire and a powders head unit/receiver.

[@nickmartinz9917]

Bluetooth wouldnt it ? He said it still needed main power but yeah wouldnt it be bluetooth for the active?

[@rbhe357]

@@nickmartinz9917 I won't say it doesn't exist, only that I've never seen it. Plus you would be limited in the number of speakers. Bluetooth 5.0 supports only 2 simultaneously connected devices (I think) while earlier versions did not.

[@jamesbyrne2274]

Can you email me information?

Hi James, feel free to get in touch with us with the information you require and we'll be happy to help in any way we can. Many thanks.

@@smarthomesounds That was a quick response I have a 12 x14 foot new enclosed patio and I have a electrician coming to install outlets and lights and I would really like ceiling speakers any recommendations?

[@Ashworth-Media]

For a company that does home audio the sound is absolutely terrible on that KZbin clip, with the sound bouncing off every hard surface, making it nearly unwatchable, this is not a great advert for your company, as you need to do better.
