Would there be problems installing a pair 15 feet apart in the ceiling, soundwise? Like for a receiver's Zone 2

You should have no problems hooking them up in series. They are 8 ohms so they will be 4 ohms in series. Check you specks to make sure but I am sure that will be fine. We had 2 RC6s hooked up to a Sonos Amp in our master bathroom and it was just fine.

Since these are each a stereo speaker (i.e both the left and right channel are included in the single speaker. Your Zone 2 would need to have outputs for four speakers in order for the impedance to match the speakers. If you are interested in a "pair" of speakers one for the left channel and one for the right channel, you may want to consider a different speaker.With that said, I have a single speaker as Zone 2 in my bath, and I love the sound.

I don't think it would be a problem, but the sound would definitely conflict if you were trying to play two different types of music that close together. I have different zones in different rooms and they work perfectly. Not sure what you are trying to accomplish but these are great speakers. If possible I would suggest having a volume controls in the room you are putting them in.

As long as pole diameter and the receptacle socket matches...have used my pair with several different speakers depending on venue. No complaints so far and cost was factor in choice. Also the wide stance easily supported set of 15" box with confidence.

Possibly, but it will depend on how deep the speaker is. In my experience, in-ceiling speakers won't fit in a standard 2x4 studded wall, as they will stick out and you can't fasten them down. You will have a maximum of about 3-3/4" of space between the drywall for a speaker. And while in wall speakers are designed to fit in these confines, in ceilings are not. While the previous comments are correct regarding the way the speakers mount being compatible with in ceiling or in wall installation, it's the dimensions that are the hang up. I doubt they have actually put these in a wall, but are merely speculating. Possibly, but it will depend on how deep the speaker is.

Yes. I installed about 10 of them in my drop ceiling and they look and sound great. They are designed for drop ceilings. Very good sound for the price.

Unfortunatly that was why I returned the unit. I can't say for sure how long but I already had cable running through my ceiling for surround sound and couldn't use the rear speakers unless I spliced into the cable and added cable lenght. the wire comes directly out of the speaker and has a connector already mounted. You could cut in the middle and add lenght but I chose not to do that.

My husband installed them in the ceiling so I am sure it would be ok on wall. They are awesome speakers!!! Can't beat the price.

Normally, no. What would probably make the most sense would be to mount them in a "2pi" configuration, in other words right at the boundary of wall and ceiling. With the "u" shaped mounting brackets you can do a little experimenting, but "bouncing" sound will usually result in loss of certain frequencies and a kind of "smeared" sound.

I have been mounting them in the light fixtures themselves or splice box close by. I do not have a specific answer for you but I would keep it close....say 10 feet. You would have to check with the Mfg.The distance would depend on the wire gauge and load being attached. Sorry... can't be more specific.

Shouldn't be a problem. You might want to experiment with tweeters facing in or out to achieve the best sound possible. Space between the speakers will determine that.

These speakers were designed for surround sound applications in a 5.1 or 7.1 system. Your subwoofer should handle all the really low frequencies. I am using mine for surround sound to cover chairs in the middle and chairs to the side. I had no place to mount them except two cabinets holding lamps. I had to raise them to be at ear level with another small speaker. As such with direct sound to each person's ear, they work about as good as possible. I tried putting them up over 6 feet on top of two cabinets, but they seemed washed out. Each installation needs some variation.

My two are both mounted inside a structure and are 30-40 feet distant from each other. They work great.

As long as there's a box in the ceiling..there shouldn't be any problem to get it installed!!

I don't see any way that wouldn't be possible, the wires that run from the speakers to the system itself are bare, and just kind-of clip in, so I don't see that being a problem if you need to extend them.

I am a professional installer and you would be able(you have probably already done it) to install these speakers with anything 1" or less as the tabs will acommodate that dimension. The bigger issue is that ceiling tiles cannot support this weight over time. Any humidity and you will be sitting on your couch holding your speakers in your lap. Sheet rock is completely different and will support these speakers. There are sheet metal surrounds to help disperse the weight of these speakers, and you must use them, otherwise it is just a matter of time until they come down. Don't suggest using any combustible material as if there is a fire, then insurance will be negated.

Do not understand the question exactly, but I have one pair connected to same system 9 feet from each other and they are working well. If you need to put another pair somewhere else, you might need another separate cable for that pair but same audio system can handle it. Hope this answers your question.

The sound is awesome, just keep in mind that based upon the width you will need to install it parallel to the studs (joists?) in the ceiling or you'll need to cut the studs and frame it in if you need to go perpendicular.
1202146
I would say yes provided that your walls are deep enough , looks like from another comment they are just under 5 inches in depth. If you do this also remember to find the stud in the wall and make sure before you trace and cut hole it is not over one. They are also concave a bit in one direction , so for in ceiling you can direct the angle a bit to where you want the direction of the majority of sound to go, but that angle is minimal.
