Acoustic Audio by GoldwoodCSic84 Frameless 8" in Ceiling 5 Speaker Set 3 Way Home Theater Speakers, White, (Model: CSic84-5S)

I bought these in May 2023 after closing on my home. I bought 2 sets. Installed 4 in the main room, 4 in the master bedroom and 2 in the master bath. I have to say, they sound AMAZING!!!!! I have owned Bose, Klipsh, Infinity among other speakers. These have a fantastic soundDue to them being 3-way, they put out pretty good bass on their own without a subwoofer as is the case for the bathroom speakersIf you know how to install yourself and are not afraid to cut into your ceiling and make a bit of a mess while installing, not a difficult DIY.You will not be disappointed!!!

Very good sound with Yamaha

Installed in basement ceiling. Remodeled basement and installed rock wool insulation above ceiling; installed these speakers for a 5.1 surround sound although I didn't buy a subwoofer, wanted to see how these sounded first. I have been blown away by how good these inexpensive speakers sound, and I absolutely don't need a subwoofer as these speakers produce impressive bass. I have another 5.1 surround system in my living room and need the 8" sub for that setup. I highly recommend these speakers to anyone wanting an exceptionally good value system.

Just finished installing them. I went from an older pair of Bose 301’s to (4) celling speakers. I’m using the setup for ambient background music. I’m pushing them with a 15-year-old Yamaha receiver. From an overall sound quality over (2) Bose speakers is a vast improvement. I have a 2-story house with about 16” gap between the floors, so once installed they sound good!Pro’s:Cost effective (I went with the 5-pack of speakers. I’m using 4, keeping one on hand in case one fails in the future.)Cons:Just like everyone else here, the front grills need to be redesigned! They are over difficulted to work with! As for removing the grills, I ended up using a tiny nail and worked it around the edge slowly prying the grill off. As for reinstalling? There’s no easy way to get them back on! I had one that I fought with for 15 min! I ended using a pair of tin-snips and made a small cut on the edge to take some pressure off the edge as to slide it back on.I would have given it a 5-Star review, but the grill issue needs to be addressed. Overall I’m very happy with them. For the price

The media could not be loaded. Overall they have decent sound for the cost. I recommend supplementing them with a subwoofer. I got a F12 that really filled out the bass. It was night and day. Great product tho! They were much larger than I expected but it was a pleasant surprise.We're making our basement look better on a budget without finishing it: Eg. black painted exposed ceiling, recessed rgb led lighting, and of course these speakers. I wanted to paint them black to match our ceiling, it was really easy. Here's what I did:1. I measured between the floor joists in my basement then I cut five 18.5"x15" drywall rectangles to rest on top of the i-joist flange. These will hold the speakers.2. Then I routed a 9.5" hole in the center with a circle jig.3. Flip the drywall over, put the speaker in it, remove the grill by prying it off gently with an awl.4. Put a plastic cover over the cone (I used a cheap 8" vigoro planter saucer drip tray thing) then spray paint it.5. Remove the speaker, then flip and paint the face of the drywall. Repeat this for all the speakers.6. Paint all the grills.7. Mount the speaker in the drywall rectangle, tighten until you feel resistance then back it out a turn (if you look at the clamps on the back, see that they're not tightened so much that they're angled, they should be at a 90° as much as possible if they're even a little tight it'll flex the plastic frame and you won't be able to get the grill on.8. Put the grills on.10. Rest it up in your joists and run your wire.This was a Sunday project for me, it took me about 5 hours from start to thumping beats in my basement but I wasn't rushing.

These are a little bigger than I thought they would be but it's fine and they fit/ work well. Good price. Happy with them so far.

I really like the way these sound. In ceiling never have any real bass performance but I lucked out. I installed these in the boxed in recessed lighting housing that spans my kitchen. Wired an amp into the cavity with a Bluetooth receiver and hooked it up to a socket. When the lights are on, the speakers are on. The template they give you with each box is great. I traced it, cut it out with a rotozip, affixed the wires and then placed the speaker into the cavity. Fit like a glove. (Use masking tape or another kind around exposed drywall to prevent it from crumbling/ powdering into the speaker). Tightened the screws down carefully with a drill driver (the wings are plastic, plenty to hold the speaker in but don't crank em down). I only have 2 installed in my kitchen and that's PLENTY. These are clean and articulate. The boxing in of the ceiling fixtures may attribute to the bass so I can't say how they sound in an open air enclosure (like in an attic above a living room etc) but I love how these sound in my space. Looking forward to placing these in more rooms.
