Product Descriptions

The integrated speaker was first made available to the public with the IC-1005. Due to its compact on/off installation dimensions, it may be mounted on both the wall and the ceiling. Although it is ideally suited for the nearly undetectable stereo or multi-channel installation, it may also be used as the ideal balancing act for pedestal or shelf speakers.

The IC-1005: Simple to install, incredibly robust, and sonically flawless.

How do I use my ceiling speakers?

Speakers installed in walls and ceilings are typically passive speakers. They are thus not required to be connected to a power source. They just require a connection to a receiver or amplifier that can also serve as a power supply.

Features

The amplifier can be used well with a 6 ohm impedance can be put in walls or ceilings with a maximum thickness of 35 mm. Coaxial design for improved fidelity and throw. High-frequency reproduction is accurate thanks to the 20 mm cloth dome.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do ceiling speakers and TV work together?****

You can listen to TV sound through your ceiling speaker system by running an analogue cable from your TV to the amplifier and switching to line output on your TV.

What is the function of a ceiling speaker?****

Ceiling speakers have the ability to convey wonderfully detailed music from above and even improve the surround sound of your speakers, despite their comparatively small size. They are utilized to enhance the surround sound experience even in theatres.

What size speaker system do I need for my home theatre?****

Use one pair of ceiling speakers in rooms bigger than 3 m2 and two pairs in rooms bigger than 5 m2 for a more well-balanced sound. In a small room, one speaker might be adequate, but certain speakers, like the Zuma, are made to fill a room with sound.

How are the speakers in the ceiling powered?****

No, ceiling speakers typically operate as passive speakers, which means that, because they lack built-in amplifiers, they are powered by speaker wires connected to an external amplifier. To accomplish this, each ceiling speaker is connected to the amplifier via the binding posts.

Should I hide the ceiling speakers?****

Yes. Your in-ceiling speakers’ sound quality will suffer if a back box is not installed, which could lead to noise pollution in other parts of your house.

Speakers in the ceiling that are separated.****

To make sure the ceiling is aligned, measure the space between you and the other components. Place the speakers at least eight feet apart as a general guideline. The size of the room will determine this.

Where are the best places to put ceiling speakers?****

One pair in front of and one pair behind the location where you are listening. Place the speaker(s), if your system only has space for one pair of speakers, directly in front of where you’ll be listening.

Do speakers need electricity?****

If wireless receivers, active transducer elements, or amplifiers are built within the loudspeakers, they need power. Most speakers and monitors that need electricity plug into wall sockets, however others require batteries or specialized amplifiers.

Does surround sound work with in-ceiling speakers?****

I appreciate you asking. Naturally, “yes” is the response. To provide that immersive additional layer of sound, just position your in-ceiling stereo speakers in the desired location before turning on your system.

How are speakers in ceilings measured?****

Take your measurements in inches for the speaker using a ruler or a tape measure. The biggest portion of the cone should face upward while your speaker is standing upright. Measure the distance between the mounting frame’s two edges at the speaker’s widest point. So that you won’t forget the measurement later, write it down.

How do I choose ceiling speakers?****

The highest audio quality and the deepest bass are frequently produced by reputable in-ceiling speakers that have a minimum 8-inch diameter. Pay particular attention to how well the amplifier that will be utilized with them is built! To optimize the sound the speakers create, you need a good one.

Do ceiling speakers play music well?****

Despite their relatively tiny size, ceiling speakers have the potential to transmit incredibly detailed music from above and even enhance the surround sound of your speakers.
Even movie theatres use them to improve the surround sound experience.

Can I use ceiling speakers and a sound bar?****

The majority of sound bars with surround speakers don’t work with in-ceiling speakers; they only employ those speakers.

How do I use my ceiling speakers to play music?****

The shorter and more straightforward choice is 1. Purchase a multi-zone AV receiver, after which you should attach speaker wires to each speaker with the amp. Choose an AV receiver with Bluetooth and WiFi built-in to simplify your home audio setup.

What sets in-wall speakers apart from that in-ceiling?****

Sound can be dispersed throughout the room thanks to the horizontal-firing created by the installation of wall speakers. The woofers are arranged parallel to one another in the space. Downward-firing in-ceiling speakers are mounted in the ceiling and direct sound downward.
