Normal speakers have defined enclosures so the sound it always as the manufacturer intended. The trouble with normal speakers are wires and the fact that they are always in the field of view. You only mention surround sound, so I presume this is for a speaker setup around a TV. So what are you doing for the main speakers for this setup? What about sound in the rest of the house?

My set up is B&W floor standing fronts and large B&W centre and integra amp. We sold the house and the ceiling speakers stayed with the house as we will just buy some more if and when the new house is built. Here is the place and one example of a speaker. https://audiosolutions.net.au/product/b ... aker-each/ Re: In-Ceiling Speakers or B&W Surround Sound? 5Jan 06, 2018 2:38 pm I have done this recently. I would go for Klipsch speakers they are the ducks guts of speakers, I have an onkyo a/v receiver also. Do your research for speakers and speaker placement. I mucked mine up rushing in as I roof mounted the surrounds and I have 2700mm high ceilings so they are basically useless.
