Re: Re: Cheap ceiling speakers

[Mal Lansell <mal@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I used powered PC speakers for our bathroom.

I'd imagine that in a kitchen or dining room you're not really going to
need the ultimate in hi-fi reproduction - a kitchen has loads of
background noise, and in a dining room the music *is* the background noise.

I was quite intrigued by the single point stereo speaker (stereo sound
from a single speaker with dual tweeters).  Has anyone here had any
experience of these?  Do they work as advertised?
