Micca M-8S 2-Way in-Wall Speaker, 10.0"(W) by 14.1"(H) Cutout, Home Theater, Whole House Audio, Indoor or Covered Outdoor, 8" Woofer, 1" Tweeter, White, Paintable, Each

Tengo 2 pares en techo para sonido Atmos y un par traseras y lo único que puedo decir es que tienen un desempeño que me ha sorprendido. Las tengo empotradas en tablaroca y agarran fuerza los bajos. La verdad estoy muy contento con la compra.

With the help of the approximative dimensions needed for the In-wall installation, we built two 5/8" prefinished MDF 14" X 11" X 5 3/8" enclosures to accommodate these kits even using the actual tabs of those for the In-box installation, not forgetting either some fluffy fibrous material to somewhat damper some inner frequencies. The result, probably the best sounding speakers in our house driven by a 100 W / channel tube amp, surprisingly, absolutely everything is there, bass, mids and highs ! The voices are like nothing we've heard before, very clear and cristalline, not too much, just perfect ! The percussions are another highlight of these speakers, crisp and percussive, we're very happy with the end result, no doubt, a similar In-wall installation will surely give you similar stellar results ! Good products easily adaptable ! Thank you !

Wow. Just loved it

These in wall speakers will blow you away when paired with the right amp. The 8" woofers need a little more power to sound crisp. With an average 7 channel amp they sound slightly muddy and need the mids filled in more with the center than I would like. With closer to the 100-110 watts per channel they sound perfect. I have them paired with a Micca center channel and a 12" sub. You can have that amazing theater sound that you are shopping for and only have to determine where the subwoofer fits in your furniture plan. We actually found a nice table (no drawer) that sat over the subwoofer. We pained the speaker trim and grilles and it looks great. One speaker grille did rust for some reason. It must have had some paint scraped off before I painted it with latex. If you are going to paint them get a detail HVLP pneumatic paint gun with the primer tip and spray them outside. If you try to roll them it fills up the holes and clogs your sound path. Make sure to run some thinner through your paint gun afterwards and disassemble and soak the parts so that its not clogged up if you go to spray other paints later. When you install them you may want to have some of the plastic wrapped fiberglass insulation on hand so that you can sit some behind the speaker for two reasons. First off these are essentially free air speakers and this helps to dampen the motion of the woofer. Secondly your neighbors will appreciate it and you will too because you can turn them up more without the sound blaring outside if this is mounted in an exterior wall. I didn't want loose fiberglass near these because I thought the voice coil may suck in the fibers and blow the speaker. Be careful when installing these. The sound quality and lack of noise depends on getting a clean and tight hole cut without crumbling the drywall. I also recommend putting a thin line of caulk between the speaker flange and your drywall so that you seal it, stop any buzzing, and help strengthen the drywall around the hole. On my uncalibrated dB meter I think I hit a pretty clean 123 dB. These can keep up with a single 12" sub but if you have much more than that in the bass department you may have trouble leveling it all out. I think with a good center speaker and these as your 6 wall speakers it could balance out well with two 12" subwoofers though. Movies, music, and video games are amazing with this setup! There have been a few minor issues but overall they don't even put a dent in the value of these speakers in my mind. I do have one spot on the wall where the cleat that grabs your drywall from behind is starting to punch through. It has a small bump in the drywall there. The woofers hit pretty decent so I'm surprised that's all it's done. Also after about a year of use one speaker was buzzing. I was pretty bummed that I had a voice coil going bad. I pulled the speaker grille to see if anything visible was wrong without pulling it. I noticed that the speaker grill seemed loose when I pulled it off. I bent the wire mesh some so that it fit tighter in the plastic frame/trim of the speaker chassis and the buzzing has stopped. I was not expecting much from these when I ordered them. These are easily one of my favorite purchases on Amazon. I'm able to have my home theater without making my living room look like a bachelor pad. Bang for your buck these cannot be beat.
