For the money, you can’t beat these speakers. A good friend of mine who works for BB recommended them hands down. He was 100% right! The speakers have a sound quality that rival equipment twice their price. My wife loves the fact that they’re hidden away and all my neighbors are jealous of the sound quality I get out of these babies (paired up with a Yamaha receiver)!
The paintable covers are great, so you can put them in-wall if you have access. In-wall or in-ceiling, you really can’t go wrong with these.

Great speakers. I was just WoW when turned on after a simple install. Sound quality is natural and clear. This is not for a Boom system…. this is quality not quantity. Good luck.

Purchased these speakers along with the Klipsch Icon WC-24 center channel and Definitive Technologies Pro Sub 1000 10″ sub. They are mated to a Harman Kardon receiver and everything sounds STUNNING! You can adjust the two tweeters on these yamaha speakers and aim the sound to the middle of the room or wherever you want. Good instructions come with it. I did not install these myself.

I was looking for a pair of ceiling speakers for our new kitchen addition to be used with a SONOS system. The powered SONOS cube has 55 watts / per channel and it is more than enough power to make these speakers sound good.
I was afraid that if I only went with a 5 1/4 or 6 1/2 inch woofer, I’d be disappointed with the fullness and bass output. So I knew I had to buy a pair of 8 inch woofers to satisfy my high standard for sound quality. I was also slightly afraid that for under $200, these speakers wouldn’t sound as good as some higher priced models.
I am happy to report that these speakers ROCK!! They have good full sound and good bass output (for 8 inch speakers). They sound awesome and I have no complaints at all. The sound they produce is equal to, if not better, than many more expensive models.

Used for rear surround, works great! Easy install!

I easily installed these speakers along with a yamaha receiver. My brother has Klipsch speakers and we both can not tell a difference between the two systems and the Yamaha speakers are much less.

I followed the instructions and the installation and hook up was a breeze. I would recommend this product to other users.

I recently mounted these speakers in game / theater room. We wanted speakers that were ceiling mounted so they were out of the way and not noticable. These speakers were super easy to install (other than running wires which has nothing to do with the speakers themselves). Each pair came with a template for cutting the hole, had pop out legs that held them in place while you finished mounting them, and spring loaded speaker wire connectors that made connections fast and easily accomodated 14 gauge speaker wire (or banana clips). Once installed they fit flush and are virtually invisible with no annoying emblems or tags on the covers. The sound from these speakers is fantastic. You really get a theater like surround sound experience with four of these in the ceiling.

Bought these speakers for my living room along with the 6 1/2 for my master and I was very impressed with the sound that they produce. I have had/installed a lot of different kind of in-ceiling speakers and these by far are the best to install in a room that doesn’t have a subwoofer. They produce a good quality bass sound but not enough to rattle the walls. If you want that, you would deffinitly need to add a sub to the room. But for what I use them for which is just music, they are perfect. For the smaller rooms, I would recommed the 6 1/2 which are just as good but just a little less bass.

I just installed the first pair of two pair I purchased and am very satisfied with them. They are easy to install, come with great instructions, and sound great once they are installed. I was worried about possibly needing to install a subwoofer too but I don’t think that will be necessary.
Tips: use a Roto-zip to cut out the drywall and stuff insulation into the hole prior to monting the speakers

I ordered 2 sets and one speaker didn’t work right so I returned a pair to Best buy and they ordered a new pair for me. Just test each speaker before you install them (good advice no matter what speakers you end up buying) There are so many options on the best buy website for in ceiling speakers, I chose these due to price and customer reviews and I am very happy with them. They have a good quality sound and are easy to install. I would definitely recommend these.

Great speakers and phenomenal sound. They have a magnetic plate, very practical.
Stan393601 –
my first Yamaha speakers and i’m not disappointed. if you plan to install them in a wall beware that even if the wall has a full 2X4 it won’t fit. i had to make a box of sorts to add depth so they fit…plan ahead

Quick install, easy template to trace and the template wasn’t a flimsy piece of paper.
The cross over electronics, various resistors and caps, are housed in clear plexiglas won’t get fouled with dirt and insulation from your attic.
They were good when I installed them but after I put a length of pink fiberglass roll over them, sound improved. That tip was in the manual.
Nothing but love, two tweeters and both are directional, paintable as well. Good value.
Remodel –
I had these speakers installed in the ceiling as part of a kitchen remodel of an older home. The speakers are powered by a Sonos Amp (perfectly sized), and both look and sound great.

Had these speakers in my surround sound system for 7 years. Last winter a snow and ice backed up water into our home and water poured in through the speakers which were mounted in the ceiling. The old speaker actually still worked but the insurance company wanted us to replace them. I was surprised to find the exact same speaker still being sold. Great sound also very durable.

works well . added in living room and easy install
harleypoolman –
These were easy to install. LIked that can adjust the tweeter for directional sound. Very good value for the price.
Motomike –
Sounds great, rich mids crisp highs, and a good bass. We have a set in our TV room kitchen and common area. They sound great when playing all types of music and movies

I have these speakers as part of my living room 5.1 set up. I have used the same speakers for all 5 channels. So far i am happy with the purchase. The speakers sound good when paired with a receiver. I have played music on high volume and these really rocked the house.
tone –
great for any home theater, loud enough to rock the house
PierceRay –
We use these for ambient listening and they produce very loud and clear music.
jghr –
these are great quality speakers
my second set, easy to install and sound great!
CPRay –
I used four of these for ambient listening in our open living space. For the price these sound amazing and will get very loud. We have them paired with a Klipsch 12″ sub and they compliment each other well. I just wish the grill installation was a little cleaner or if they were magnetic like other brands offer.

The speakers were rather easy to install provided you have the right tools. They look great, and they sound great.
I use them for multi room stereo. Installed them in living room as speaker B, and mostly use for low volume ambient music, but they can also go higher in volume and sound great.
Jill –
Speakers were easy to install and the sound is awsome!
OferG –
The speakers look great on the ceiling and sound great.
The only problem I am experiencing is that they are connected as “Speaker B” to provide a multi room stereo sound however I cannot control their volume separately, so they sound a bit quieter than I want them to. but when I play them separately they sound great.
Pinal –
Yamaha speakers provide balanced sound. Really happy with the sound quality for the price.
Kenny4844 –
Bought these to put in ceilings all over the house (8) and for the money you can’t go wrong. Really.
merv775 –
We plugged them into the system to give a try before installing. They sound good on rock n roll classics but for movies the sound was a little too muddy for me
LooLoo –
We love our speakers! They sound so clear. We’ve very happy with our choice.
Ness –
The speakers fit perfectly. They have a good sound to them
WorkDad –
These are great sounding speakers at a great price.
gmoney –
Solid construction well built speakers. Highs are nice and crisp! Base is a tad lacking but to be expected in this range. Still solid though. But an 8 inch pair of good sounding speakers for under 200 bucks is a steal. Do like the fact you can swivel the tweeters to point where you want them. I’ve installed these outside in the ceiling of my outdoor patio and am very pleased. Definitely one of the best options in this price range.
Grover979 –
These speakers were surprisingly good for the price. Even though it had good reviews, I was suspect. I’m using them as in ceiling speakers on a covered patio. I was able to angle the tweeters to get deflection off of the patio floor. Overall more than impressed with the performance and sound quality.

I bought these speakers for music in my kitchen. They sound great whether listening to the radio or streaming music. Easy to install, and though I prefer the magnetic grills for some of Yamaha’s other speakers, these were relatively painless to deal with.
