[QUOTE="JimGore, post: 58470, member: 3"] Hi Eclaire, How they sound depends on the quality of the speakers in question, how sturdy the ceiling is, the room acoustics, etc, etc. From a SQ point of view some in-ceiling speakers can be quite good. The problem with using them for HT or any kind of listening session is a slang phenomenon known as "the voice of God". It isn't really fun when all the sound comes from above you, and it distracts from the movie playing on the screen in front of you. You might get away using them as the surrounds, but definitely not for the main left, right, or centre channels. What about in-wall speakers? That would solve the space issue. Regards, Ian. [/QUOTE]
