![]() I drive them with a Denon 90 wpc A/V receiver (2007 purchase - like today's 891?).Īll the technical reasons for going with in-ceiling application still exist, but I should have avoided it. In the notional family room, I have 5 Sonance in-ceiling speakers: three 822TR's for L/C/R and two 622R surrounds. The 3 entryway's with a bump-out design makes this room feel like it's got a 14'W x 12'D x 9'H family room, a 12'W x 14'D (bumped-out) x 9'H dining/computer area, and a 14'W x 12'D x 9'H kitchen. My home has a 40'W x 12'D open great room (9' ceilings) with hardwood floors, a fireplace and lots of windows as canvas. I'm not an enthusiast, I enjoy listening to music and researching this fascinatingly subjective religion. I read avsforum when looking for kit, but am poor on giving back. (Though I also wouldn't have bought them for myself, but then I am really difficult to please, especially when I'm spending money.) I wouldn't have used them if I didn't think they were good speakers. Like most companies, they make some good products and some less good products.

So the AV installer tries to sell speakers and other gear that they can make a margin on. I guess because they think they can do it themselves. Consumers are often reluctant to just pay the cost of the install, the way they would with an electrician or a plumber. That means they don't have to compete with Amazon or Best Buy, and can make enough money to cover the complexities of the install. Though lots of people say they do, but really don't, or won't pay for it.įor the installer, they are a line that is not typically available to consumers directly, although that is changing. If you want the absolute best sound, then you need to do more work. Though of course other companies offer that as well. They also offer a full line of speakers, and seem likely to be around forever, which means service, repair, replacement, additional speakers, etc. (Though I also wouldn't have bought them for myself, but then I am really difficult to please, especially when I'm spending money.)įor the homeowner, they can offer good sound and build quality, if you choose the right speakers.
