Acoustic Audio CSic83 in Ceiling 8" Speaker Pair 3 Way Home Theater Speakers

I have been replacing my high end ceiling speakers in preparation for moving to a new house, so was looking for decent cheap replacements to use until I move (and to fill the holes my really nice, expensive speakers left when I removed them).These Acoustic Audio speakers are amazing for the price. No, they don't sound as good as the Mirage Omnican OC-65's they replaced, but they are much, much better the other cheap speakers I tried (Pyle and Vevor). They have a standard mounting mechanism for installation and removal (unlike the Vevors), and they actually sound pretty good (unlike the Pyles, which are horrible).Yes, these cost a little bit more, but they actually sound fine for casual listening. The CSic63's are decent, and the CSic83's (for not much more) are more than decent. They are actually pretty good! Bass response is way better than expected at this price, and most things sound fine at reasonable volume.If you are going to go to the trouble of running wires and cutting a hole in your ceiling, don't fill those holes with terrible speakers. Spend just a little more and get the CSic83's instead. They really are great for the price, and you'll likely be very happy with them.

Great sounding speakers. Bass response is very good considering there are no enclosures as they are ceiling mounted and back into a large attic space. Plenty of volume available when connected only to a 50+50 watt mini amp.Easy to install.

The install process was easy except that the mesh screen ships installed on the speaker but it needs to be removed in order to mount the speaker in the wall/ceiling. Prying it off can be a hassle and possibly warp or damage the screen. Minus one star for that. The sound is great. My use case doesn’t exactly stress test the speakers though. They’re in my ceiling as front height atmos speakers. So the aren’t asked to handle loads anywhere near their peak ratings. That said, if all you want are surround sound speakers< these guys will certainly fit the bill.

I added two more speakers to upgrade to a 7.2 set up - previously 5.1. These speakers sound excellent! I am using them for middle surround sound. These have the best specs at the lowest price! These really are a great value.

For the price point I was hesitant, and wasn't sure what to expect. Installation was simple. I am truly impressed with the sound quality out if these. I have four, two for side surrounds, and two for rear surrounds, off a Denon Avr-770. The sound quality and detail in the audio is excellent. Sure, a higher end speaker will be better quality, but at such a low price point compared to others, these are well worth trying. Don't expect big bass out of them, that's what subs and towers are for. But for a surround speaker, these are excellent.

I'm loving these! Installed one in both of my bathrooms and they look great, sound pretty nice and install was a breeze! I built a box around them too to keep insulation and critters out and it added a little more bass so win win! I'm running them off a bluetooth wall amp and I just love it!! 100% recommend

I was blown away by how well built these speakers were and how easy the installation was! I installed them all over my dental office into removable foam ceiling panels and it was so easy due to the speaker coming with an integrated mounting bracket. Just cut the circle, slip the wire through and the speaker clamps down in a few seconds with the help of a phillips head on a drill. Sound quality: The sound is excellent for this specific purpose

These are great. I replaced an old pair of Bowers and Wilkins in ceiling speakers that were installed by the previous owner of my home, I don’t know how long ago. The housing of the old speakers was cracking and they were no longer sitting flush with the ceiling so I rolled the dice on these. Super happy with this purchase. They actually sound much better with much clearer vocals when playing music, than the old B&W. The B&W, I suspect we’re completely worn out. They are part of a system with a Sonos sound bar and sub, so I get my bass that way, but I tried it with the sub off and they weren’t bad in that department either. Great value here.
