convince me to sell my in-ceiling speakers and go with something else
i have 5 sonance virtuoso 833dr speakers, these puppies are 3-way and not cheap. here are the specs
Specifications
ConstructionGraphite reinforced ABS (GRABS) woofer basket reduces resonances.FeatureNew FastMount® tabs hold speaker in place during installation allowing for easier install.Tweeter1" (25mm) pivoting silk dome, ferrofluid cooledMidrange4" (102mm) pivoting carbon fiber cone with rubber surroundWoofer8" (203mm) pivoting carbon fiber cone with rubber surroundFrequency Response32Hz - 20kHz ±3dBImpedance6 ohms nominal; 4 ohms minimumPower Handling5 watts minimum; 150 watts maximumSensitivity91dB (2.83V/1 meter)AdjustmentsTweeter and midrange level ±3dBOptional EnclosuresOptional retrofit enclosures reduce sound spillover from rear of speaker into adjacent spaces.Grille MaterialPerforated aluminumDimensions
Diameter x Depth11 1/4" x 6" (286mm x 152mm)Cutout Diameter10 1/8" (257mm)Shipping Weight20lbs (9kg) pair
my room layout is not typical, hoping these might perform well in my room:
very low ceiling 7 feet
drop ceiling with mdf wood panels
small room 14x11
wood panelling on the walls
i chose in-ceilings because the room is small, but i made sure to get high quality, i def cannot do floorstanding in this room, but i could be convinced to do on-wall speakers. these sonance speakers sound really nice, esp being 3-way with high sensitivity. what could i do on-wall that would really jam and make me sell these in-ceilings? once i install them they aint new anymore, so if im gonna sell them, i want to sell them now. thanks for the advice guys.
