They sound amazing with the Subwoofer. ??

These have great clarity and volume. They are a large speaker so they fill up space much better simply on size alone. I highly recommend these as speakers that hide well with great sound.

Absolutely love these speakers. We recently did a remodel of our basement media room and as much as we wanted a surround sound experience we didn't want speaker on the floor. We bought two pair and use them as front and rear channel speakers paired with a Jamo S 808 SUB 100W 8" Subwoofer. The sound experience is amazing. These were easy to install. They come with the stencil you need to cut the hole in the ceiling. The covers can be easily removed and if you like can even be painted to match your ceiling. You can also position the tweeters, which for us was a plus for adding direction of sound in the room. Well made and sound great, I would recommend the Jamo 8.5CS 8" 2-Way In-Ceiling Speakers to anyone looking for a great sounding speaker at an affordable price

I bought these to complete my atmos 7.2.4 sound system. Drop down ceiling. I already had some Boston Acoustics 6" speakers for the front ceiling speakers but these blew them away in the back so I ordered another pair to replacethe ones in the front. Perfect to finish my system. Easy to install and as accent speakers they are great.

Very easy to install, looks great, and most importantly sounds great! I have a 7.1.2 Dolby Atmos surround system (google for 7.1.2 dolby atmos...you can see the basic set up). These speakers are the "Atmos" portion - the overhead left and right speakers. I've placed them into a couple tiles on the drop ceiling in my basement. These have created a great fill! They are very easy to install, pretty intuitive. I let my system set the speakers up based on it's protocol and tests, and the fill is subtle, but noticeable (for regular TV, music, etc.) until you get into a heavy action scene (Transformers, Star Wars), and then you really get that feeling of being "engulfed" in sound. If my system supported a 7.1.4 configuration, I'd get another set to put in the overhead rear position!
