As I recall when doing my basement the whole recessed lighting size decision was really about taste, looks (4" vs. 6" in my case). I went with 4", particularly because of the low ceiling in the basement renovation. I'm now doing a total gut job of the kitchen. It's painful and we uncover surprises every day but back to the point - a big difference with the kitchen is the ceilings are 10' high. I'm thinking the looks are not as relevant compared to the 7' basement ceiling...is there any performance or other issues I should consider (size related, Im good on other stuff like voltage, IC, etc)...just kind of curious . Yeah, they'll be some sort of a/v system in the kitchen as well.
