Acoustic Audio by GoldwoodCSic84 Frameless 8" in Ceiling 5 Speaker Set 3 Way Home Theater Speakers, White, (Model: CSic84-5S)

Installed in basement ceiling. Remodeled basement and installed rock wool insulation above ceiling; installed these speakers for a 5.1 surround sound although I didn't buy a subwoofer, wanted to see how these sounded first. I have been blown away by how good these inexpensive speakers sound, and I absolutely don't need a subwoofer as these speakers produce impressive bass. I have another 5.1 surround system in my living room and need the 8" sub for that setup. I highly recommend these speakers to anyone wanting an exceptionally good value system.

I bought these in May 2023 after closing on my home. I bought 2 sets. Installed 4 in the main room, 4 in the master bedroom and 2 in the master bath. I have to say, they sound AMAZING!!!!! I have owned Bose, Klipsh, Infinity among other speakers. These have a fantastic soundDue to them being 3-way, they put out pretty good bass on their own without a subwoofer as is the case for the bathroom speakersIf you know how to install yourself and are not afraid to cut into your ceiling and make a bit of a mess while installing, not a difficult DIY.You will not be disappointed!!!

I'm not an audiophile, but I am very impressed by these speakers. Seeing the nearly universal positive reviews, despite the low price, I was skeptical, but after two weeks of use I'd say they're valid: these speakers may be disappointing to the most discerning of listeners, but I doubt that I could tell the difference were I to have spent substantially more.I'm using five of these, all mounted in a drop ceiling, to complete a 7.1 system. I already had the other two speakers I'm using immediately to the left and right of my TV (some Boston Acoustic bookshelf speakers that cost more than all five of these combined), and a low-end Sony Subwoofer. Accordingly, these are mainly being used as center and surround speakers, and with 5.1-encoded programming, that means they're mainly used for dialog and effects. I could not be happier with the sound -- it's a major improvement from having just the two stereo speakers, and I have yet to have even a moment wondering if the sound were somehow inferior. Instead, I'm struck by how good they sound, and how immersive the experience has been.In terms of installation, I have a drop-style ceiling in my basement, perhaps as old as the mid 1950s, with each tile being one foot square. I used the included templates to cut appropriate holes into some cheap 1/4" thick panelling that I bought and cut to replace anywhere between one to four of the existing tiles. With a little shimming and painting, I'm very happy with how it all turned out. And, I'm definitely glad that I went with ceiling speakers for this project; we have three young kids who rage in our basement, and I love that the speakers are all up and out of the way with not visible wires or protrusions to be hit by the occasional flying football!

Not much to say here, the speakers are exactly what they say they are. The screw tab mounts made install a breeze. the only two knocks I have against this product are 1. the screws for the tab mounts are clearly cheaply made and are an odd size (I tried 4 different screw bit tips until I found one that was "Ehh, close enough, it'll have to do" I used both my hand screwdriver (that is a multi tip accessible driver) and my Milwaukee drill driver (And before you say well he's a dummy and just gives it the beans, what do you expect) I know how to feather that drill to the point I could use a glass screw (If there were such a thing) and not concern that I would shatter it. But I digress the screw heads strip out easily (Both by hand and by feathers/used properly drill driver. 2. the Speaker grill/grates are some what a pain in the a$$ to reinstall, not impossible but still enough that makes you throw a cuss or two out there, and once in they do drop loose and you will find yourself walking around and pushing them back in (I have not had one fall off completely yet, but they do become un-flush) Still a great product and would likely purchase again.

Very good sound with Yamaha

These are a little bigger than I thought they would be but it's fine and they fit/ work well. Good price. Happy with them so far.

Easy install. Sound quality is good for the value.

I am loving these speakers. They sound absolutely amazing. I originally planned to buy Polk ceiling speakers and was ready to shell out almost a grand for them, and then I saw these on Amazon while researching. The reviews were very good, so I contacted the company because I couldn't find a manual that I could look at to help me decide. They sent me one immediately. I asked them why they don't advertise and they told me that they put their money into making the best speaker they can and let word of mouth do the rest. Well, they sold me. I am not a picky audiophile, but I do like my sound system to deliver and these speakers do the job. I already had a Polk subwoofer and combined with these speakers in my man cave, they sound amazing. Tested their limits with songs like YYZ, Tin Pan Alley, Jack of Speed, Get Lucky and, of course, Bohemian Rhapsody. All sounded amazing and hit the individual speakers right where they were supposed to. For movies, the surround was spot on. You may not believe that a sub $200 set of five speakers can deliver like this, but I am here to say that they absolutely do.As for installation, they are light enough (4lbs each) that you do not need a weight distribution bracket for the ceiling tile. Just use the template to set the hole, cut the tile, drop the speaker in and secure the bracket. Took no time at all.
