Anyone heard the def techs and B&Ws and have any thoughts on the comparison?
In ceiling speaker selection advice
I'm looking to install in-ceiling speakers for 'distributed audio', as well as outdoor speakers on a condo terrace.
I'm looking for good quality sound, but recognize the limitations of in-ceilings. In the living/dining area, I've got a separate HT and audio setup running Usher BE718/616 as my L/R/C, so don't worry - I'm not trying to 'replace' traditional speakers with in-ceilings.
For my main living/dining/kitchen area (about 22x40), I'm looking to install 4 speakers, plus a single in the powder room). I'm also looking to install two in the master bedroom and a single in the master bath.
Here's what I'm looking at:
- Definitive Technology DI 6.5S;
- B&W CCM 663 or 664;
- my installer is recommending Monitor Bronze BR CPC in ceilings.
They are going to be running off a Rotel 1565 amp, with an Arcam DV135 as the CD source, and through a Control4 system acting as the pre-amp.
Anyone have any advice on any of the in-ceiling speakers listed above? Any suggestions on stuff in similar price range?
