Just hooked a pair up outside under the eaves of my garage ( this is my second pair, the others are in the living room). Lets just say my neighbors weren’t exactly thrilled to see me installing them outside on the front of my house. I now also have a giant halogen floodlight mounted over my driveway basketball hoop. It didn’t take them long to do the math on where this was headed.
But I won’t crank it up late at night, much.
Super easy to install. Sound is good, value is exceptional.

I’m currently auditioning speakers for a new whole-house audio distribution system, so I installed these in one room as a test. The price is certainly attractive. My test room is fairly small with a low-ish ceiling so in my application the speakers must be used at relatively low volume/power. They are fairly “tinny” at low volume levels, with some improvement as you increase the volume. I would not recommend them as primary speakers for low-level background music. They might be ok for rear surround applications or in a very large room where they must be driven at higher power levels. For the price, they are pretty decent speakers, but not suitable for the application I’m planning.

Hi , i’m Dwayne Majors Owner of holosonic Home Theater , 99% of the time i would never use inwall speakers , but for a large bed room system i had too consider looks first sound second ! That just drives me nuts just thinking about it . So how did i make it work ? I build every hometheater the same way , with six full range (20 cycles to 20,000 cycles human hearing range) floor standing speakers ! With the speakers properly positioned in a 360 degree circle , with the chair in the dead center , this creates a holosonic sound field , now you get the name anyway it leaves its listener in the perfect position to hear music or movie soundtracks accurately ,its so good you just have to hear it to believe it! Thats what i was up against . So i went to the one place that never let me down . Amazon.com ! After looking at some bookshelf speakers i saw the Phoenix Gold inwall and the rest is history ! With some tweaking the Phoenix gold speakers teamed with a good subwoofer really sound and yuk look good ok i said it ! Will i do another system based on inwall speakers oh no , but i will use amazon.com anytime for tough jobs ! Thanks again amazon from Dwayne Majors .

I bought these when they were $38, a great deal. I am installing them in 2×4 ceiling tiles. Having experienced sagging tiles in the past, I wanted to make sure they were supported properly so I searched for some support hardware. Supports for 8in speakers are easy to find, not so easy for these. Of the 2 places I found that maybe sold them, one was a large quantity seller and the other cost just as much as the speakers. Well I found my own solution. I glued a pair of 2ft long pieces of suspended ceiling supports ($1 each) the narrow way, to the tile and then installed the speaker so that two of the clamping tabs were on the supports.

I purchased 8 pair of these speakers to take care of my whole house system including my home theater (paired with a subwoofer and center channel). They are an incredible value. I’m not an “audiophile”, but I’ll say that these speakers are excellent for most in-home applications. Don’t hesitate to buy them!
