About this deal

For Dolby Atmos, we recommend the Yamaha NSIC600 set above. But don’t forget that you’ll need an amplifier that can output those all-important Atmos channels. What are the best ceiling speakers for Sonos? If you own a LIFESTYLE® system, Bose® 791 Virtually Invisible® in-ceiling speakers and an SA-3 amplifier can bring music to another room in your home. You can even listen to music from your a LIFESTYLE® system in one room while a film or different music plays in another, at the same time, from the same system. While the era of showing off massive “hi-fi” loudspeakers by heavy-hitter brands like Cerwin-Vega and Magnepan in a dedicated listening room isn’t quite as outdated as the above proverb, it’s not far off. Today’s audiophiles and home-theater enthusiasts desire maximum sonic impact with minimum visual presence. And that’s where the new generation of ceiling-mounted speakers comes in—they have a stealth design to make that happen.

Installing the Bose® 791 Virtually Invisible® in-ceiling speakers is easy four clamp screws secure each speaker to the ceiling. The infinite baffle design eliminates the need for a separate speaker enclosure it uses the space above the ceiling instead. Once you've positioned the speakers, just tighten the clamp screws and twist the grilles into place. The Bose® 791 Virtually Invisible® in-ceiling speakers finish is as elegant as it is unobtrusive. You can even paint the Bose® 791 Virtually Invisible® in-ceiling speakers speaker grilles to match your décor.

The Expert: I've been building and evaluating traditional wired home theaters for more than 25 years and have an extensive collection of equipment in my living room, from a Bricasti M12 Dual Mono Source Controller to a headphone setup with Focal and Grace Design preamps. I trained with John Marks, the former editor of Stereophile, and completed the Harman International “How to Listen” listener evaluation program. What to Look for in Ceiling Speakers Size and Depth Traditional two-wire speaker systems aren’t going away any time soon, so the best way to make sure you won’t fall afoul of future developments is to physically wire your system. The Sonos In-Ceiling Architectural Speakers above are clearly going to be your first choice, especially if you already own other Sonos products. That said, if you’re loyal to another brand and are happy with the sound, you should let that steer your buying decision. Can I mount a ceiling speaker on a wall instead?

It’s really a no-brainer to use ceiling-mounted speakers for fill-in duties in 7.1 and 7. 2 surround-sound systems. It saves you a lot of hassle with wall-mount or (worse yet) floor-mount surround speakers, with little to no penalty in staging and sound quality. More adventurous users might even want to go ceiling-mount for the whole system. This has a negative impact on staging but it frees up a lot of space on shelves and walls.

The best ceiling speakers of 2023

Almost everyone else can follow this rough guide: Don’t go bigger than half. That is: If the largest driver in your front speakers is 12 inches, you probably don’t want more than a 6-inch ceiling speaker. For systems that use multiple small drivers, like a Bose 901 or Paradigm tower speaker, you can break this rule. Stereo Inputs and Whole-Home Systems When you think of immersing yourself in sound, the kind of 5.1 or 7.1 speaker system you get with a surround sound home cinema setup may spring to mind. But they’re not the same. Ceiling speakers are great for delivering music of course, but they’re also an excellent addition to your home cinema setup. You can hook them up to your overhead effect channels, such as Dolby Atmos if your amp supports that.

Bluetooth. Pair your mobile device with the Bose Music Amplifier through Bluetooth to listen to content from your mobile device. Pair your mobile device to the amplifier using the Bose Music app. Or put the amp into pairing mode by pressing and holding the Bluetooth button on the front of the amp and then selecting the Bose Music Amp from the Bluetooth settings menu on your mobile device. The best sound will always come from having an expert evaluate your room and choose individual speakers, but most of us don’t have that kind of expertise and funding available. So don’t be ashamed to just buy a whole set from a particular manufacturer.With SimpleSync technology you can also pair the Bose Music Amplifier with a Bose Bluetooth speaker, and for example, listen to the same music on your outdoor speaker as on your in-ceiling speakers in the living room. An amplifier processes sound and passes it through to speakers as output. Wattage is a measurement of the output signal sent to a speaker. Each speaker has a limit to the amount of wattage it can handle and pushing beyond this limit can damage the speaker. You must make sure that the output wattage of an amplifier does not exceed the output wattage rating of a speaker. Fire Hood You're legally required to install a fire hood. See our section on this in the FAQs above. Speaker type That said, a larger speaker needs more space in your ceiling, and that can potentially be a problem. Not only are you cutting a bigger hole, you’ll also need more total depth for the enclosure and for the magnet that drives the speaker. So, make sure your eyes aren’t bigger than your available space.
