RE: In-Ceiling Speakers

["Paul Gale" <groups@xxxxxxx>]

I'll agree about Sonance - great speakers :)

I mounting in a ceiling below a bedroom for instance, you'll need to put

me rockwool insulation in above them to cut a little of the transmitted
noi=
se but you will still get a lot of the bass through.

Mine have been in for nearly 2 years now - no problems - but they are dead

easy to fit and replace if necessary.
